Gift Ideas for Toddlers and Children for the 2007 Holiday Season

Luke M.
Here is a list of items that may very well be perfect for kids, 18 months old or older.

Find a perfect toy for the toddler, 18 months old and up at crayolastore.com, the Crayola Beginnings TaDoobles First Marks BUV (Beginnings Utility Vehicle). It's designed to fit the little one's grasp. The markers won't dry out like some will. I remember that was a big difficulty for my generation growing up with old marker pens. They would dry out after a certain period of time. Parents would have to buy us more. They would always tell us to put the cap back on when we were finished with them. And for an aspiring artist like me, this posed a particularly problem for all involved.

Product price: Approx. $14.99

Parents with toddlers 18 months old and up can also give their little ones this cute, almost educational Chicco New Rodeo Horse. It's a great toy for the price. Not only is it a rocking horse, it can be lifted up out of its base to form a rolling horse. The toddler will be able to push himself or herself along with their legs. Sounds pretty nifty doesn't it? Go to rightstart.com, amazon.com or any Toys "R" Us to get a look at this sweet little toy.

Product price: Approx. $89.99

For girls 3 and up, Barbie the Island Princess collection looks to be a collection of hot items this year. You can get the DVD movies, the Barbies, and a nice little Magical Castle Vanity. As I've read in another review, expect the girls to squeal in sheer delight. These movies and toys can be found at Target, Toys "R" Us, Wal-Mart, and even amazon.com.

Product price: Approx. $19.98 for the DVD, $24.99 for the Barbie, and $129.99 for the vanity.

How about giving your 5 year old or older boy or girl their very own camera this year? Check out the VTech Kidizoom Camera on sale at amazon.com, Toys "R" Us or sears.com. It's a nice digital camera for that little rascal who wants to pretend to be adult and use your camera. The VTech Kidizoom Camera can be plugged into your TV and computer for photo and video playback. This will also come with games. It's a sweet deal for those little ones.

Product price: Approx. $59.99

A more unusual toy on sale this year is the Jakks Pacific EyeClops Bionic Eye, available at amazon.com, Toys "R" Us, and drugstore.com. Of course while it is unusual, this little item is on everyone's top toy list. The name may not sound like it, but the Jakks Pacific EyeClops Bionic Eye is simply a nifty magnifier. It can magnify anything up to 200 times their normal size.

Product price: $49.99

Happy Holidays, folks!
