Gifts of toys and material items can be really fun for kids! There is certainly a place for them of course but sometimes the overload of toys and stuff during the holidays can really be a lot for both the kids and the parents that need to find a place to put all of these new things! We've been working on some great gift ideas that are a little bit outside the norm, a bit Out of the Box. We have some traditional gift ideas as well as some experience gift suggestions that will be sure to please.
A Subscription Box!
No matter if you opt for a single month or a full year a subscription box can be a pretty cool way to bring something a little special into your house that is engaging, hands on and creates a great way for parents to interact with their kids and learn something at the same time!
Green Kid Crafts offers some pretty cool STEAM (Science, Technology, Art, Engineering and Math) activities delivered right to your house! There is plenty of time to order one of these in time for your little one to open one on the holiday. Sign up for a subscription

Bramble Box provides monthly subscription boxes and pretend play kits to kids ages 3 - 8. Each themed box provides fun, educational and engaging dramatic play props and activities, delivered right to their door every month. Each box is mom-designed and, of course, tested by kids!

Gift A New Experience!
Maybe your kiddo has been begging to try karate, or dance or theater classes, but you just haven't have the time to sign them up yet. These options are great local programs with stellar reputations in the community that would provide a great WOW factor especially for older kids. Many of them also would be a great option to "gift" something to a toddler or baby who doesn't understand the value of toys.

We absolutely LOVE these Pura brand bottles. Our kids have had them for a few years and its wonderful to be able to continue to use them long after they outgrew bottles. Just change to top and your bottle becomes a sippy which transforms into a straw cup and so on! They are eye catching, eco-friendly , plastic free and super easy to clean. Available at Ju-Ju Monkey in Allentown!
These awesome Kid-O Magnatab products are fantastic.
