Holiday Gift Guide for Kids + Teens
The Holidays are here and I wanted to share a few gift ideas for kids and teens to give you some fun adventure, outdoor and learning gift ideas. These are all things that my boys have really enjoyed or are getting as a gift this year that I think will be a big hit. Just for reference, my older boys are 11, 10 and 7 years old. My oldest is turning 12 in 2 weeks. I hope this list gives you some new ideas this holiday season or for upcoming birthdays and holidays.
Painting to Gogh
This is our 2nd time creating masterpieces with @paintingtogogh and both times the boys have loved the whole experience. Exciting news for parents with elementary age kids... they just launched their Junior artist kits. Just like you can go to a painting class with friends, Painting to Gogh offers painting kits sent to your house. My boys all picked a different design and when their kits arrived we got them all set up and used the video tutorials to guide them in creating their artwork. As a homeschool mom always looking for fun additions to our learning, I highly recommend this. This would be a great Christmas gift to send this year if you love to gift experiences and hands-on fun!
Riders Republic Video Game
Here’s a new game that combines outdoor sports, tricks and awesome views! @ridersrepublicgame is the perfect game for the outdoor sports fanatic in your life! Experience the thrill of outdoor sports like skiing, snowboarding, wing suits, dirt biking, paragliding and more all while exploring national parks and famous places like Yosemite, Mammoth, Zion and Bryce Canyon.
Zipline
Since we have moved and have property, a zipline was something the boys really wanted. And lets be honest, I did too! 😉 We have been working this week to install our zipline and have had a few trial runs. We are all super excited!
Diamond Kinetics Pitchtracker Smart Baseball & Swingtracker Baseball
My boys just got this and are already loving it. They can track their pitches and swings and get instant feedback on the app. Get the Swingtracker sensor for your bat or the Pitchtracker Smart Baseball and you can get in depth metrics and more to help you train. Baseball and softball players of any age or skill level, and their coaches, can have access to the science of motion analysis and unlock an entirely new world of understanding about their swing, its components and how to improve their hitting with Diamond Kinetics’ SwingTracker Bat Sensor.
PitchTracker Baseball and PitchTracker Softball, made up of the Smart Baseball/ Softball and the PitchTracker Baseball/ Softball iOS App, revolutionizes with a comprehensive pitch analysis and charting system available right in the palm of your hand. See in-depth information previously available only with expensive hardware systems.
Beakerz Science
At home Science Activities and Experiments that are engaging and fun. Geared for Pre-K through 4th grade with activities, videos with Professor Beakerz and quizzes around STEM science lessons.
Play Osmo
Thankful for homeschool and of course the creative minds behind @playosmo. We are big fans of their hands-on learning games for kids. Osmo Coding Kit, the Math Wizard series and the Osmo Genius Kit are a few of the favorites in our house.
The Master Chef Cooking Game
Calling all MasterChef’s or anyone who likes to have fun and eat yummy food.👨🍳 #ad My boys and I found a fun new game that is also delicious too. It’s the MasterChef Family Cooking Game from @wilder.toys. My boys can work on new skills in the kitchen while doing fun challenges and of course laughing a lot. The blindfold challenge made for some very funny moments. You compete as a team and earn points with each task or challenge you do. From Mad Skills to Game Changers… It makes breakfast, lunch and dinner so much more fun! Check out our stories for more fun behind the scenes clips and a link to purchase this game for you and your family to enjoy together.
Ka-Blab
This game is so much fun to play together as a family. We were all laughing and having a blast.
VR Atlas
This Virtual Reality World Travel & Activity Set will have your kids exploring all kinds of fun places. My boys are already enjoying this set and doing both the VR experiences as well as the hands on projects included in this kit.
Electric Scooter
The boys are enjoying their new @razorworldwide Sonic Glow Electric Scooter.
This scooter has a built-in, ready connect Bluetooth wireless speaker to play your favorite songs on the go. Connect your device and enjoy a multi-color LED light show that synchronizes with the beat of the music. It is recommended for 8 and up, but the 6 and 7 year olds had no problem riding it too.
Dungeons and Dragons
This is a new favorite game my boys are just starting to explore. You can get the starter set and watch their imaginations just go wild!
Last but definitely not least, EXPERIENCES! Find a fun new adventure near you and get out and make some unforgettable new memories together. A few of the adventures we have experienced lately with our boys are Holiday Lights Drive Thrus like Christmas in Color, Snow Tubing at places like Gateway Parks Eagle, Monster Jam and the Renaissance Faire.
Hopefully this list gave you some unique gift ideas and I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season!
