Before you start browsing, we’d like to share some gift ideas plucked straight from our selection.
For the Artist
Age is a critical factor when selecting arts and crafts gifts for kids. Double-check the description to ensure it’s appropriate for the child’s stage of development.
An adjustable standing easel makes the perfect present for a toddler who’s all about finger painting. Simply make the easel’s legs longer as the child grows.
A mini-Michelangelo will go wild for drawing kits that arrive pre-filled with everything they need to make a masterpiece, like colored pencils, sharpeners and erasers.
Looking for a rainy-day activity to keep school kids entertained for hours? Try a children’s art set like a paint-by-numbers or Spirograph kit.
For the Crafter
Start any designer-in-training with classics like Play-Doh and stamp sets.
Older children can graduate to bead-making kits. If jewelry’s not their thing, they can try making soap or lip balm instead.
Does your little crafter get stuck when deciding what to make? Crafting books for kids help to spark their imagination with creative prompts and instructional photos.
Other Options
STEM & educational toys offer another way for children to develop creative thinking.
Building toys like LEGO®s and Magna Tiles have visual components but also teach kids to problem-solve as they play. Make-your-own terrarium kits and make-your-own slime kits combine crafting with science. There’s a whole world of toys exploring the intersection of fun, ingenuity, and learning.
