Top 5 Gifts For Kids
1) Coordination Game - Travel

This travel-sized balance toy was created as a rehabilitative tool to help hone fine motor skills—and it does it in the most fun and challenging way. The objective? Neatly stack the disks. That might sound simple, but it takes concentration and coordination to get the unpredictable, rotating magnetic bamboo discs to line up just right.
2) Skoog 2.0 Touch & Play Music Cube

This music cube encourages little musicians to get hands-on with making sounds. Kids can make music instantly by pressing, pounding, or tapping the irresistible squishy cube. Switch up sounds, set volume controls, play music from streaming platforms and more through the app.
3) Foldable Kid & Teen Scooter

The 2-wheel scooter is foldable, making it easy for kids and teens to take on the go. Simply fold for compact storage with a push of a button. Features a T-bar that is adjustable to four different heights. The triple deck structure with aluminum and EVA foam is designed for durability, comfort, and practicality.
4) Homestar Planetarium

Project 60, 000 stars onto your ceiling with this high definition planetarium. Ultra-bright LED bulbs display a brilliant night sky as the rotating projection follows the northern hemisphere throughout the year. Adjust the angle and focus to suit your surroundings, and set the timer to drift off to sleep under a peaceful, starry sky.
5) Dream Wishing Comfort Pillow

This pillow introduces a new bedtime ritual for children by using visualization of happy dreams to help stop nightmares. Just write down hopes, dreams, and aspirations on a blank "dream wishes" card and place the card into the pillow, and enjoy a restful night’s sleep.
