Toy Box Overflowing? Here are 4 Gift Ideas that Won’t Add to the Toy Box

We all love spoiling our little ones, whether it’s the latest gadget or the latest all singing all dancing toy, there’s nothing better than seeing their little faces light up when they’re treated for their birthday, Christmas or for just good behavior.  

The problem is…everyone else wants to spoil them too; grandparents, aunts and uncles, friends and other relatives…and before you know it you have an overflowing toy box, a messy bedroom, and more toys than they could ever play with. So, what’s the solution? Well, did you know that there are plenty of other ways you could treat your little ones without buying more plastic toys that they’ll probably never play with? 

Check out my top 4 gift ideas that will give you a little inspiration.  

A Gift for Their Future  

They’ll probably look at you with confused eyes when you present them with the idea of a savings account, but this is the kind of gift that they’ll certainly appreciate when they’re older! Firms like Golden Eagle Coins specialize in investments and investment pieces that will grow in value over time, making them ideal nest eggs to make the most out of when they come of age. Whether it’s a down payment on their first car, a step onto the property ladder or the funds they need to travel around the world and fulfill their dreams. The gift of their future is something they’ll always be grateful for. 

Lessons  

Perhaps your child already has a passion and they’d like to boost their skills further or they’re in the market for a new hobby and want to try something different. Well, treating your child to some lessons will certainly be exciting for them. From dancing to horse riding, photography to cookery, painting, and drawing to creating and programming their very own video games – the possibilities are endless. Not only will it push their creativity and understanding of a particular subject, but they’ll also make new friends and experience things like competitions, friendly rivalries and seeing their hard work pay off!    

A Magazine Subscription 

Is there anything more exciting for a child then getting something in the mail that’s just for them? Setting up a magazine subscription for them is a wonderful gift that they’ll get to enjoy every single month. The magazine can be on a topic or TV show that they love or something that might help their studies in a particular subject.  

Your Time 

They say that the greatest gift you can give a child is your time. So, give the gift of an entire day that’s dedicated to just the two of you. Let them decide where the day takes you – whether you visit the aquarium, then go swimming at the local pool, head for ice cream or visit the museum or theme park. Take lots of photographs and enjoy spending time with them and making lots of happy memories. You could even make it a regular thing!
