This is not a sponsored post, while there are no affiliate links on this post, a few of the items on this list were gifted to us over this past year. Although I receive this benefit the opinions I share on my blog are 100% mine. I always try to be transparent when I have a sponsored post or am collaborating with a brand. I aim to only share products and services that I honestly enjoy.
PS4 Gaming Console
If you have kiddos who love gaming as much as mine do, then this is definitely on their Christmas wish list. This is a higher-priced item that you definitely want to keep your eye on to score on Black Friday. Also watch for "Bundle" deals, which include games and additional accessories.
Currently depending if you go for the basic or pro console the retail price ranges from $269-$367.
From the preview of ads, I've seen Target seems to have the best deal available this year. For $199, Includes a jet-black 1TB PS4, a matching DualShock 4 wireless controller, and three free games.
This would be a great family gift idea. My kids love playing ping pong, Foosball, and table tennis.
From Target to Walmart these retail for about $150-$300.

Not my favorite idea of a gift, but definitely on my kids' Christmas list. They love to buy V-bucks for Fortnite and other games. I will admit Apple Play Cards fit nicely in stockings. You can purchase Apple Play Cards in any dollar amount. I've spotted these at my local supermarket as well as other retailers.
Ryan's World Toys
My boys love watching Ryan's World and love checking out all the "Ryan's World" themed toys. In collaboration with Just Play Products this summer we purchased the Ryan's World Super Surprise Safe at Walmart and my boys loved finding all the hidden treasures. They also loved the safe, and they still use it today.
Retails for $39.82 at Walmart.

My boys love sports, from soccer, and football to our local Sacramento Kings. They have their favorite teams and would love any Jersey, T-shirt, poster, playing cards, really anything with their favorite sports team.
Books
Every year we buy our boys books for Christmas. They usually have a series they want and I love to foster their love of reading. This year on their wish list is Dog Man, we found a boxed gift set at Costco at a great price. In years past, it has been the Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Box Car Children, Adventures in Odyssey.
More Book Ideas - Joke Books, Comic Books, Books on Coding.

Nerf Guns
My boys love Nerf Guns! There are a variety of the NEW Fortnite Nerf Guns. They would love any of them.
Last year the Fortnite Monopoly Board Game was on their list, my boys still love Fortnite and they love all different themed Monopoly games. This year they've asked for The Chameleon, Family Feud Disney Edition, 5-Second Rule, and Brain Games Kids edition.
If you want to personalize or make a board game gift even more special, include some popcorn and a Redbox movie night rental. You could create a family game night gift basket, include a gift certificate for pizza, and include their favorite candy and snacks, this makes an ordinary board game special.
Backyard Play Gifts
Soccer Goal Net, Trampoline, Basketball hoop. We have all of these and these were my favorite gifts my boys received, they use these items daily. If you have the yard space, these are great gifts they will use all year long.
Rollplay Nighthawk Ride on Toy
My kids love to ride on motorized toys. We were gifted a Nighthawk last year and my kids loved it. I think the speed is perfect, not too fast, not too slow and it turns with ease. You can find these at Walmart right now for $98 regularly priced $139.

You can find unique and kid-themed Bluetooth Speakers that make great gifts. My kiddos go to sleep at night listening to audiobooks, they each have a Bluetooth speaker in their room. Bluetooth Headphones are great for road trips or flights when they travel with their tablets and devices.
Wireless Bluetooth Karaoke Microphone
My kids love to sing, and so do I. We love to sing along to our favorite Disney tunes and more. Check out this fun Bluetooth Karaoke Microphone. This would make a great gift this Christmas!

I love the idea of giving a gift that is an experience and not necessarily an item. These gifts will last more than one day, they will not end up being a broken or lost toys. Experience gifts provide long-lasting memories. These are great items to keep in mind to gift this Christmas.
Here are a few of our local favorites: Raging Waters Season Pass (their Black Friday deal is already available), Six Flags Season Pass, Ice Skating Tickets, MojoDojo Gift Card, and In-door Sky Diving at iFly.
I put this on the list as a practical item, kids go through shoes like crazy and kids also love shoes. My boys get excited about a new pair of Nike shoes, especially if I can find them in their favorite color. Don't discount practical gifts for Christmas, they are especially appreciated by the parents.
Preschool Toys
My little guy would love any toy, pajama, or book from his favorite characters, Peppa Pig, PJ Masks, Mickey and the Roadster Racers, Jake & the Neverland Pirates, Paw Patrol, and more. He loves painting, play-dough, and of course the classic Hot Wheels.
Disney+ just debuted this week!!!! This would be a great family gift. We are so excited and already absolutely love it. At $6.99 per month, this is a very budget-friendly gift idea, even if you gifted a few months so they could try and see if they'd enjoy it. Again you could gift a DIY certificate, include popcorn, candy and snacks or a pizza gift card for a great family movie night gift basket. You can also purchase a yearly subscription for $69.99. Disney+ is available on a variety of streaming devices for example Roku, Apple TV, Google, Microsoft and Sony. You get the best of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic. Unlimited downloads on up to ten devices. For more information visit the website at https://preview.disneyplus.com/.
Pillow Pets
Pillow Pets make great gifts! These plush stuffed animals bring smiles to the faces of all ages. I love dual-purpose items, I consider these a stuffed animal/toy, and they are pillows as well. Perfect for when the kids are watching a movie downstairs to bring their pillow pet, these are great for sleepovers, and long car rides. As a Disney fan family, we have a few different Disney characters, over the years my boys have had other animals as well. You can find these on Amazon as well as on the Pillow Pet website https://www.pillowpets.com/. On their website, I spotted some on clearance 50% off through 11/18/19. Disney Retro Minnie is ONLY $13.50. My boys would love any of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Disney characters and Lion Guard. They also have brand NEW Sleep Time Lites, nightlight and plush toy in one.
These pictured below were gifted to us, one for our Disney Play-date Party and one last Christmas, we love them!

ReplyDeleteThanks for posting these wonderful gift ideas. My niece is 13 year old and I am very confused about what to give her this Christmas. Last year I gifted her a Deluxe Building Bag For Kids. Apart from gifting dolls and stuffed animals, I wanted to give her a different gift. I think this post will help. Keep posting.
