From arts and craft, wooden toys, jigsaw puzzles, open-ended toys, magnetic tiles and more, there's something for everyone this Christmas! Lots of us spend time on google during the festive season searching for best toys to buy for different interests and age groups of children!
To save time browsing for Christmas presents, we've created this Christmas Gift Guide For Kids. You can shop different categories in our "Play" section by Age, Theme, Budget or Brand to find the best gifts!
Here are our top 10 Christmas gift ideas for children of all ages:
1. Jellycats Plush Toys

We also carry Jellycat Bunnies in all colours. Personalise your bunny to make it extra special!
But we don't just personalise bunnies. We're proud to be one of the few stores in Singapore personalising other Jellycat toys such puppies, dragon wings and even the Amuseable Fried Egg! If you're not sure whether a Jellycat can be personalised, drop us a note first! Our team will carefully measure the surface of the toy to see if embroidery is possible before we take on an order!

2. 92-piece Magnetic Ballrun by Connetix
$139.90
Recommended age: 3+ years
Note: While the brand guidelines indicates that magnetic tiles are suitable from 3Y upwards, we found it a little challenging for a three year old to build without close parental supervision. For independent building, we find that the 5 to 6 year olds have the most fun!
Why we love Connetix: They've made magnetic tiles in all colours - from bright rainbow colours to pastel colours to clear transparent tubes so you can see the ball run down the tubes! The best part is if you've got other sets of magnetic tiles from Connetix or tiles from other brands such as Magna-Tiles and Learn & Grow, good news - they are compatible! You can create taller towers and longer spirals with all your sets!

3. Green Toys Recycling Truck

Why we love Green Toys: Green Toys demonstrates that recycling can result in something tangible and meaningful - old can become new. These toys are made up of milk jugs, just like the ones in your fridge! How amazing! They are durable and well-made, in bright attractive colours! They make great gifts for toddlers!

Why we love Plus Plus: As the name suggests, Plus Plus is a unique form of a plus (+) that allows every brick to connect to the next! Create 2-D mosaics or work in 3-D to make more complicated structures such as buildings, vehicles and even the world map! We love this unlimited open play possibilities, stimulating fine motor skills and creativity. Because it is so compact, you can buy the Plus-Plus tubes to bring on plane rides or road trips!
