Creative gift ideas for kids
Few things compare to the joy and excitement
on the faces of children on Christmas
morning as they rush to the tree in
search of packages bearing their names.
Though it may seem many of the items
on your child’s list require tech savvy, getting
back to basics with crafty gifts can allow
your kids to explore their artistic sides
and foster imaginative play. From options
like coloring books and jewelry-making
kits to glitter activity sets and color and
wash collectibles, there are a variety of
present ideas out there meant to get those
creative juices f lowing.
Whether searching for a gift for the animal
lover, aspiring scientist or DIYer, you
can find gifts to spark your child’s imagination
and leave him or her with a colorful,
memorable surprise at HYPERLINK

Time
While many children love to play with
glitter, traditional glitter and glue can be
messy. This holiday season, opt for a lessmess
solution like Crayola Glitter Dots,
which are recommended for children 5
or older and available in 13 sparkly colors
and three color palettes: classic, tropical

and bold. Each innovative dot features
a special coating so all the glitter is contained
inside and a unique adhesive that
sticks to multiple surfaces including paper,
wood, felt, papier-mache, fabrics, plastic
foam and more. They are available in
single packs or as part of larger activity
kits that can be used to conceive custom
creations as well as keychains, stickers,
mosaics, sparkly signs and more.
Customizable Creativity
In a matter of minutes, kids can be
transported to an imaginative safari
where they can create, nurture and collect
colorable and washable figures with
the Crayola Scribble Scrubbie Safari, intended
for ages 3 and older. Using the included
kid-powered Oasis Tub with a slide
attachment, kids can wash off their pets,
customize their appearance using six
different Scribble Scrubbie Ultra Clean
Washable Markers and create brand new
designs again and again. In addition to
the four safari pets included – monkey,
elephant, giraffe and lion – additional expansion
packs are available that can bring
your child’s collection to a total of 12 adorable
animals.
