Top 5 Christmas Gifts for Boys
1) STAX Magnet Building Block Set
STAX: Magnet Building Block Set - Greens
2) Rechargeable LED Poi Balls
Not only is this outdoor kid’s toy a spectacle of light, it’s also a great exercise of your coordination and dexterity. The Poi dance traces all the way back to the Maori people in New Zealand. It involves swinging soft LED weights rhythmically to create geometric patterns. This version is lighter and brighter, which is great for beginners of all ages. Start with simple movements and as you try to master more complicated ones, you’ll build flexibility and creativity.
3) Wooden Tabletop Penny Hockey Game
Shoot and score with this penny hockey table game. All you need to play is a finger that’s ready to flick and a penny that acts as the hockey puck. The wooden game board is handcrafted in Missouri and is made with the mission to bring families together for a nostalgic (and fun) screen-free game night.
4) Kids Active Sitting Stool
Kids can start building better sitting habits when they’re young. This Made in the USA ergonomic stool encourages them to make small movements that help with circulation, breathing, and keeping their mind more alert. Unlike a stability ball, ErgoErgo looks cool and won’t roll away.
5) Mini Wooden Model Building Kit
UGEARS: DIY Mechanical Model Kit - Mini - Planes
