Top 5 Christmas Gifts for Boys
1) Wave-Powered Surfer
Surfer Dudes: Wave-Powered Surfer - Aussie Alice (Purple)
2) Mini Tabletop Basketball Game
This vintage style desktop basketball game features an adjustable basket height with three settings and an automatic ball return. Shoot for the high score by skillfully launching balls through the hoop and adjust the rim height for a new challenge.
3) Kid’s Neon Clip-On Skates
Yvolution: Kid’s Neon Clip On Skates - Pop & Lock - Pink
4) Rechargeable LED Poi Balls
Not only is this outdoor kid’s toy a spectacle of light, it’s also a great exercise of your coordination and dexterity. The Poi dance traces all the way back to the Maori people in New Zealand. It involves swinging soft LED weights rhythmically to create geometric patterns. This version is lighter and brighter, which is great for beginners of all ages. Start with simple movements and as you try to master more complicated ones, you’ll build flexibility and creativity.
5) DayDreamimal™ Comfort Animal Keychains
Your child can carry their hopes and dreams with them during the day. These comforting creatures encourage positive thinking in children. Just write down hopes, dreams, and aspirations on a blank "daydream wishes" card and place the card into the keychain so they can carry their dreams with them always.
