Warm mother's hands, dreams of fairy tales, imitation of cute superheroes - a naive, wonderful time of childhood, unfortunately, is not repeated. How can we, today's moms and dads, grandmothers and grandfathers, make childhood memories of their babies and grandchildren the warmest, most pleasant and even magical? Of course, with the help of gifts!
A gift to a baby is, first of all, a joy for him, and not “adult” arguments of practicality, reliability, non-lightness…. When choosing a gift to your taste, many people are surprised when, for example, a 6-year-old girl really liked the plastic crown of a princess and a magic wand, and not a branded coat with a hood, and a 10-year-old boy preferred the “shooter” of a children's encyclopedia.
And then everything is simple: we take into account age, gender, hobbies and, of course, quality.
What to choose?
You will never lose by giving sweets. They are happy kids of any age, they come to any holiday.
Universal gifts are also Stuffed Toys (300-6000 rubles), creator's Kit (55-4500 rub.), pencils, markers (for the bathroom, glowing in the dark, for fabric). And plasticine (from 60 rub.), clay, stencils, designer Lego (330-8000 rub.). Simply, with age, adult participation will decrease, and the degree of children's independence will increase.
The smallest - kids up to 1.5 years, according to scientific research, perceive the world sensations. They are attracted to all the bright and beautiful. New interactive educational toy - just what you need (an average of 1,500 rubles.). Stretchers (1500-10000 rubles), telephones (200-2500 rubles), sorters (toys that help sort items by some sign, for example, figures that fall through holes), a magnetic board, a game tent or a house ( from 600 rubles.), developing a rug or center (600-4000 rubles), a swing (an average of 3,000 rubles) - all this will bring a lot of joy.

Next, children develop imaginative thinking. AT 2-3 years they begin to enthrall items that move. The joy of the baby will have no limit if you give him a talking reptile hamster (740-1500 rubles), a dancing mat (an average of 2500 rubles), a super-fast ball (from 100 rubles), a toy wheelchair on a string or stick (from 150 rubles.). A car without pedals, moving legs, will be the perfect vehicle for little rush (from 2000 rubles). The list of gifts can be continued with exciting cartoons and educational programs.
It is at this age that people begin to dream of real animals. Well, if about a dog or pussy. And what if it is a horse or an elephant? In this case, the toddler will help to make happy the breathing toy. At first glance, this is an ordinary, very realisticly sewn soft toy, but if you leave it alone, you will hear like a dog, a horse or an elephant snuffle and sigh.
According to the observations of psychologists, such “sniffing companions” help the kids to learn how to sleep separately: they gladly fit into the crib with their new friend. For 1500 rubles, you can buy a breathable toy with a set of accessories (collar, combing brush, rug).
Interesting will be developing logic and thinking. constructors with more details (170-3500 rubles), pyramids (500 rubles on average), cubes, plastic barrels, matryoshka dolls, folding one into another. For the development of fine motor skills, you can give an exciting mosaic (80-1000 rubles).
Having presented educational games, do not be lazy to play them with your children. Often the kids can not understand the conditions of the game. You can help make them understandable and loved.
Be sure to give books! Do not lose their relevance neither in winter nor in summer and tins, buckets, sovochki. Super gifted for the fidget will be a three-wheeled bicycle (on average 2,000 rubles) or a sports complex (from 1,720 rubles).
TO 4-5 years old kids like to transform into a doctor, a fireman, a caring mother, a brave knight. It's time to donate "Professional" set (from 500 rubles) or even small puppet show (from 90 rub.). Dolls, strollers, toy kitchens (an average of 2800 rubles), washing machines (900 rubles) will be able to conquer the hearts of girls at this age. The boys will be delighted with electric railroad (from 1000 to 3500 rub.), to cars, ships to helicopters on radio control (200-5000 rub.), to soldiers, autostation or garage (800-5500 rub.).

WITH 6-7 years children will already be able to play along with you, for example, in chess (from 700 rubles), desktop or computer "rpg". Explain the rules and get ready for a surprise: it's even possible that you will not be the winner!

Want originality?
Give a gift aquarium. This is an excellent step to teach your child hard work, the desire for knowledge and love of nature. Just imagine: your child will become the master of a small underwater world, which will bring many discoveries and a sense of responsibility for small living creatures.
Originality can be shown in donation.
For example, organize (can be shared with neighbors) gift quest / labyrinth: hide a gift in a safe place and make a route with riddles.
Or create a book about a child and his toys: compose a story of adventures and photograph toys in the form of comics, and the gift will be an unfamiliar toy hero — the savior of the toy kingdom!
Getting into the current theme will also be excellent: pirate, spy adventures or travels of princesses and fairies (donate, for example, a toy gun that repeats words (1300 rubles) instead of a real talking pirate parrot), and glue a laser gun under it.
Arrange costume presentation: for the New Year it may be Santa Claus, and for other cases the character of the beloved cartoon.
A great idea could be ... treasure. The main thing is to make everything realistic: put the gift in the chest, sprinkle with old coins and jewelry and hand the treasure map on the yellowed, burnt-edged paper, besides smeared with wax.
