Top 10 Treats For Truly Angelic Children
Anyone who has ever been faced with the chore of buying gifts for children will know
that this task is not as simple and straightforward as it might originally appear to be. Though children are often more than obliging when it comes to providing rather extensive lists of toys and goodies they would ideally like to receive on their birthday, finding items on this list that you would actually like to buy them is often tricky to say the least. Half of these dream lists are generally taken up with items that are ridiculously expensive (or just plain ridiculous!) and often the other half is made up of the latest fad toys that will be adored for a second and then discarded and forgotten long before the birthday balloons have deflated.Ideally then we would all like to buy gifts for children that they will enjoy and be happy to receive, yet that won't prove to be a colossal waste of hard earned cash. Often, of course, this is far from easy and many of us will have spent hours walking up and down the aisles of shops looking in vain for some vaguely decent gifts for children. Help is, however, not far from hand and if you are struggling to find the perfect present for a little treasure and are seriously considering throwing caution to the wind, caving in and buying that faddy 'must have' toy then stop right there! Take a deep breath, grab a cup of tea and a chocolate biscuit (or two!) and have a little read through this rather handy top ten list of great gifts for children
Lots of children love any opportunity to get their hands dirty, especially when this involves making something. For this reason, a volcano making kit is an ideal gift, as it can be used time and time over to create impressive volcanic eruptions! Not only is this kit fun and a little messy (which all kids naturally love), it's also a great way to get them interested in science and introduce them to the wonders of the natural world. For children who like arts and crafts more than volcanic explosion, the teddy bear making kit is a great gift. With it children can use a safe plastic needle to make their own teddy, which they'll probably go on to love for years to come.
Yummy Dough makes a fabulous present for children who like to make and chew, as it is play dough that they can eat! After using the specially supplied measuring tool to add water to the powder mixture, children will be able to create dough in four different colours and from this mould, shape and make anything out of dough that they can possibly imagine. When this is done the dough is baked in the oven for 25 minutes, after which it can be gobbled as a delicious treat! If, on the other hand, you like to buy the little darlings something that will appeal to their sweet tooth but that isn't quite so messy, the ever popular chocolate pizza could be just the ticket! Available in five different 'flavours' and three different sizes, this fun chocoholic's dream comes in an authentic looking pizza box and is pre-sliced, making it perfect for sharing!
If the children you need to buy a present for have somewhat of a competitive streak, then a table soccer football game could be the ideal gift. With individually painted 'players', a score board for each team and a spare ball should the first one go missing due to foul play, this game is guaranteed to keep the youngsters occupied for hours, whether or not they have any particular interest in football. A similarly enjoyable present is table-top air hockey an arcade classic that you can now play in your own front room! This favourite from years gone by is certain to provide hours of entertainment and will be a present they'll play with for years.
When buying gifts for children who love gadgets and gizmos, the Rubik's touch cube has to be one of the best presents on the market. This clever modern twist on an old favourite has managed to retain the basic concept of the original toy, whilst coupling it with modern touch screen technology. Now you can change the blocks simply by swiping your fingers over the cube's surface and the clever little cube can even give hints and tips should you get stuck! Other great electronic games that children are sure to love include the pac boy LCD game another modern take on an old classic and the desk top finger drum kit hours of fun though guaranteed to send everyone else in the room mad!
Last but not least, if your little darlings are really mischievous little terrors, then without question the present for them would have to be the Dennis the Menace catapult! Though perhaps not much fun for nearby adults, kids are sure to love practicing their aim by hitting the fake cans and with tomato shaped foam balls provided hours of entertainment without a doubt!
