If you’ve got multiple generations in your family, you know that buying gifts for the holidays is no easy feat. While the older family members might be a little bit more predictable, the younger ones are always moving on to bigger and better things. This holiday season, keep up with the cool kids with our list of the best gifts for nieces and nephews!
What Are The Right Toys For The Right Age?
When shopping for a niece or nephew, it’s important to take their age into consideration. Many online stores sell toys divided into age groups; 0-1, 1-3, 4-7, 8-tween.
0-1 options, for example, are soft, malleable toys like stuffed animals, and cloth books. As well, any moving animals, floating letters, or brightly colored fruit is a great way to get them accustomed to real-world objects.
For kids aged 1-3, gifts that can get them curious are the best way to go. Big blocks, safe instruments, colorful buttons, and more.
Ages 4-7 can get a bit more handsy and creative as their motor skills develop and cognitive thinking matures.
Finally, ages eight up to young adults get to have all the fun. Go crazy with all the techy, innovative, and complicated gifts you can buy.
