Arts & Crafts Extravaganza
Calling all creative kiddos and art-loving parents! This list is your one-stop shop for an explosion of color, imagination, and hands-on fun.
For the kids that love to sketch, this pad gives them a lighted background to level up their pictures.
Crayola Light Up Tracing Pad
Easy on the go activity. My 4 yr old is obsessed with Bluey so bonus points for this coloring pad.
Crayola Bluey Color Wonder Mess Free Coloring Set
90s toy revived?? I loved this as a kid. My two kiddos will definitely play with this and make a few cool drawings in one sitting.
Magic Rainbow Scratch Paper Off
Great summer vacation activity. Easy for ages 4 and up. They love to be able to hang them up once they dry.
Paint Your Own DIY Suncatchers
I buy this kit every few months. My kids eventually just go grab rocks from the yard. We have quite a lot of painted rocks around the house but it is a favorite activity of theirs.
Kids Glow in The Dark Rock Painting Kit
Nothing like having the basics. Easy to order this bucket and have all the art supplies they can ask for without doing multiple store runs.
Arts and Crafts Supplies
Active Adventures
This list is bursting with energetic toys and activities that will get your kids jumping, climbing, and exploring.
Indoor or outdoors, this is a great simple toy to add for the kids to get up and play and hop around on.
Gentle Monster Stepping Stones for Kids, 11 PCS
This lets kids ‘play ball’ in the house without breaking anything. Works similar to how an air hockey table puck floats.
Hover Soccer Ball
Love these wiggle cars. You can continue to move the car by simply wiggling the steering wheel back and forth. No need to push off with your legs constantly. As an adult, I can even ride on it and get around.
Wiggle Car Ride On Toy – No Batteries,
Learning Through Play
Find something to ignite their imagination and fuel their development.
Makes learning to spell fun. Engages their senses. They can touch and see exactly what they are spelling.
See & Spell Learning Educational Toys
So simple but kids love these. They will definitely use them to look at every random thing they can find. Perfect for the little explorers.
GeoSafari Jr. Binoculars
STEMtastic Fun
Toys and activities to spark curiosity, curb boredom, and give kids of every age something to engage and hold their interest.
Magnets always seem to hold my kids' interest. These tiles are perfect for both of them, ages 8 and 4, to build with. We tend to lose them every now and again, but they come in high quantities which helps.
Magnetic Building Tiles
Great gift for kids a little older. My 8 yr old loves building mazes and can spend hours creating new ones.
ThinkFun Gravity Maze Marble Run Brain Game
For the kids ready to experiment, this is perfect. Gives them multiple science projects to create.
Stem Science Kit
Screen Free Fun
Great ideas when it's time for the iPads to go up but still keeping them entertained
My kids begged me for this and yes it does keep them busy playing hide and seek with one another without bugging me every 5 mins. It's silly but my 8 and 5 yr old think its the best thing ever.
Silly Poopy's Hide & Seek
I introduced my kids to this anxiety-ridden game and they love it LOL screams of laughter every time the timer goes off.
