Gift Guide, Chapter 2: Things to give to young elementary school kids and their baby siblings

dagmar daily dress

It’s a total splurge, but if you have a special little girl in your life, you should go to Sweet William and get her this dress because her mother is probably too practical to spend this much on clothes for her kid. ($92, but worth every penny)

feather clips from sweet william

What little girl doesn’t want a colorful feather clip (for $24) in her hair?

wooden bus from land of nod

I spotted Land of Nod’s wooden Double Decker Bus ($19.95) on A Cup of Jo (who’s gift guides are brilliant, by the way) and almost wished I had a kid little enough to still want to play with it.

arrow mobile from one kings lane

This beautiful arrow mobile ($179) will keep your little one on the straight and narrow, but you have to act fast cause it’s only on One Kings Lane till December 9th!

activity book

The Littlest Activity Book ($15, also on One Kings Lane just till the 9th) is full of imaginative things to draw, patterns to make and tales to illustrate. A preschooler could use it with her parents and your 6 or 8 year old with an artistic bent could work on it alone. Instead of an iPad.

eboo bird

A pink floating bird ($5.95) or a blue one or a purple one…

embroidered raccoon art

What child wouldn’t love this magical embroidered ermine waving a wand perched atop a racoon’s head? (by Michele Varian, $148)

play kitchen

Every kid should have their own kitchen to play in. It’s up to you (and the size of your abode) to figure out which one. This big one ($339) has everything you need, plus a nice amount of storage.

tabletop play kitchen

Or you can go handmade and table top with this Little Kitchen ($100) by MamaMadeThem on Etsy. She’ll even made you one to order if you’ve got the time.

nuop strawz

Build your own long multi-sectioned drinking straw. (Only $11.95!) Hours of fun. No joke. My daughter went crazy for this one. She even figured out how to have us both drink from one glass at the same time. Clearly she is a genius…

magnatiles

Magnatiles. The holy grail of building materials. If I had a dime for every castle/fort/animal hospital/ocean liner we have built with these things, I would be writing this from some tropical island that I owned. (set of 100 for $120)
