12 Unique Christmas Gift Ideas for the Little Ones
We will break this List down into three categories:
- Stocking Stuffers
- Mid-Sized Christmas Gift Ideas
- Primary Christmas Gift Ideas
Each category will contain four creative Christmas gift ideas – let’s get to it!
Stocking Stuffers
Which small Christmas gifts will fill those stockings that serve as the appetizers for what’s to come…
1. Specialized Socks
You can’t go wrong with getting your kids some cool socks as a stocking stuffer. There are so many themed socks to choose from that there’s something for every kid.
Whether your child likes sports, music, science or movies, there are options galore in the themed-sock world.
We like Sock It To Me and Happy Socks as places to look online for some stocking-stuffer socks! See some of the options below (from Sock It To Me):
2. Backyard Camping Kit
Is your child the adventurer type? If so, our Camping Kit could be just the fit for you.
It includes a kids’ tent, solar-powered string lights, a mini lantern, a glow-in-the-dark blanket and an activity book. With the Camping Kit, you get a full camping escapade in your backyard!
3. Personalized Christmas Ornaments
Christmas ornaments stand the test of time, and a personalized Christmas ornament adds that heartfelt touch that your child will remember and appreciate forever. Personalization Mall is a good place to start your search:

4. Lob Home
Another unique stocking-stuffer backyard gift is a game the whole family can play called Lob Home. It’s a combination of Bocce and golf that can host up to four players.
Here’s how it works:
- One person stands out at the Lob tee and lobs the ball at the Lob Target (pictured above). The Target includes a flag positioned in the center of three scoring rings.
- Your goal is to your land your ball as close to the flag as possible.
- You can download the free Lob App to keep track of your game and automatically keep score.
- And yes, you can knock your opponent’s ball out of play to decrease their score!
Mid-Sized Christmas Gift Ideas
Now we get to the gifts that are not quite small enough to be a stocking-stuffer but also not big enough to pass as the primary Christmas gift…
5. Themed Legos
Legos are a classic kids’ Christmas gift, but themed Legos are a hit right now.
From Batman to Disney to architecture sets, Legos let kids be creative without having to be in front of a screen. Also, building a Lego set could be a fun activity for the whole family!

6. Gizmo Watch
If your child is a tech-lover, the Gizmo Watch is a great option. It mirrors an Apple Watch -- except it’s geared toward children:

With the Gizmo Watch, you can make to-do lists with rewards, track steps to form healthy habits and set up to 20 contacts that your child can send voice notes to, call or text.
7. Tree Swing
Back to the backyard with our next Christmas gift idea. A tree swing is a fun way for kids to get outside and active, all while saving space in your backyard if you don’t have the room for a swing set.
We sell a Round Platform Tree Swing ($49) and a Double Platform Tree Swing ($99) that could be exactly what you’re looking for as an outdoor activity for your kids.
8. Kids Subscription Box
If you’re looking for a Christmas gift that keeps on giving, a monthly subscription box could be perfect for you.
Nowadays, there are subscription boxes for almost everything: Food, books, crafting, self-care, etc.
Wired did a great roundup on the 12 Best Subscription Boxes for Kids that you can look at to spur some ideas. Subscription boxes typically cost around $10-$40+ a month.

Primary Christmas Gift Ideas
Here is the main event of Christmas gifts: The gift that will make your kid run around and scream with joy. Get your cameras ready.
9. Gobaplay Swing Set
Swing sets are synonymous with childhood memories. If you’re looking for a backyard activity to get your kids outside and active, our other brand, gobaplay, has newly released swing sets that might appeal to you.
They are stylish, sturdily-built swing sets that just recently won a Parents’ Picks Award for Elementary Kids.
10. Decked Out Toy Car
Okay, you likely remember riding in a small toy car as a kid. But do you remember driving in something like this?

If your kid is a car-lover, you can have them cruising in a toy Bentley, Mercedes or Lamborghini! Just set expectations accordingly, so they’re not expecting a real one when they turn 16!
11. Themed Gaming Console
Video games are a staple of childhood for many children, and if your kids love video games, they will surely love a themed console, like the Spider-Man PS5:
