I cannot believe Christmas is right around the corner once again. Do you wait until the last minute to shop for your children? I like to start my shopping right around the beginning of fall, so I can check names off my list as I go. This saves me stress and even time since I am not out aimlessly at the last minute. I can spend a while on each family member and friend and give myself space and time to pick the perfect gift. I want all my gifts to be personal and full of thought. Here I have a great list of toys and games that will make your children’s Christmas special. Because all kids are different there is a great array to pick from to get that specific gift for your kids from Zing, Yulu, and Redwood Ventures Toys.
Zing HyperStrike
For the outdoors type HyperStrike is an awesome choice for Christmas. Now your kids can have a fun backyard battle with this bow and arrow set from Zing. This bow has low profile bungee cords that will launch arrows up to 250 ft. This bow comes in camouflage or carbon fiber, and the arrows whistle as they fly. My son had these arrows going far and it was fun for him to try and perfect his aim. This Bow and Arrow is best suited for children 14 years old and up.
Zing Zax
Zax from Zing is a new game that brings the latest trend of axe throwing right to your home. With Zax your kids can try their hands at axe throwing in a fun, safe way, using a soft foam axe. Be the first to get the three suction cups to stick to a window, wall, or other surface. We like to take turns and try to get the Zax to stick to the fridge. My husband and son do really well, but I do not have their skill set yet. It is a fun competitive game we can all play together, right inside. You can also take this game outside and set up a target area. Either way throwing a foam axe is very satisfying and fun.
Zing KlikBot
For those kids who want to save the world, get them a KlikBot from Zing. Now they can use stop-motion movie magic to stop evil Modulus and his cronies. After discovering a precious metal, the KlikBots have to become heroes to prevent Modulus from making an army to take over the universe. The kids can use the free app to easily create stop-motion movies that follow the action. They can use the KlikBots the way they come or interchange their parts to create new figures. Plus you can use them with the StikBots that you already know and love. We had immense fun changing the background on our movie with the app.
King of the Ring
What about your game loving kids? Get them a fun game from YULU like King of the Ring. In this game you are a Sumo player, and you must be the last Sumo standing when the timer runs out. Just knock your friends out of the ring with your Sumo wrestler themed rolling character. Once one of the wrestlers makes it into the center, a timer starts counting down. Whichever player is in the middle when time runs out is elevated onto a pop up platform and becomes King of the Ring. This game is fun and fast paced. It is easy enough for even a 6 year old to play. What fun it is to be the King of the Ring.
Fish for Fish
Fish for Fish is another great game from YULU. Here you need to be a survivor, and live off the lake as your only source of food. Since everyone is starving you must quickly assemble your fishing spear and spear as many fish as you can. My daughter was great at this game. She had a ton of fish in no time and was certainly going to survive. I enjoyed the fun frenzy of the game, and I really like the cute fishing spears that you can mix and match for cool color combos.
Pop Pops Snotz
Some children are very tactical, and like to feel things, which makes slime a super popular toy. Here you get the fun slime in little bubbles called Pop Pops Snotz and Pop Pops Pets. These ingenious toys combine bubble wrap, slime, and collectibles all in one slimy fun experience. You pop the bubble and try and see which one of the 120 characters you get.
Plus there is a Pop Pops Slime Slammer Hammer to help you out. This toy is a great addition to the Pop Pops. It is a tool to pop your bubbles, It also has a sucker to suck up the slime, and in the handle you can house all your collectible characters. This slime is really slimy and fun to play with. It comes in orange and green bubbles for the Pop Pops Snotz, and the Pop Pops Pets slime is pink and purple. My daughter is slime obsessed, and she loves these bubbles. She likes to just pop them and then let the slime run through her fingers.
Luvi Pups
These Luvi Pups from Redwood Ventures are a must have for your Christmas list. First of all they are adorable dogs with stretchy bodies. They come with six tiny boxes to open and inside each one is a dog supply. We got a pretty Basset Hound dog, with a bowl, T-Bone steak, teddy bear, collar, bone, and an awesome rope tug toy. The dog has lips that can actually hold her toys and she feels real cool. Lastly, and most importantly a portion of the proceeds from every Luvi Pups purchase will be donated to Luvable Dog Rescue. This rescue is dedicated to saving dogs from kill shelters. Therefore if you have a dog lover in the family, this is the perfect toy for them.
Foodie Surprise
Last but not least is Redwood Ventures’ Foodie Surprise. This is the main one my daughter loves best. She is already telling me which one she wants next. She loves the toys where you do not know which cute toy you will get. Blind bags are her thing, and Foodie Surprise has a mystery food cart with multiple sweet reveals. Plus It comes with all the supplies needed to make cute treats that you can really eat.
My daughter got a Sushi cart, with stickers to decorate the cart. Inside were molds and powder to make gummy sushi items. She was engaged in the task of making her treats for a while. At the end she had an adorable plate of sushi, which her brother and I helped her eat. The gummies were good and the experience was fun for her. She really wants the milkshake cart next. Maybe she will find one under the tree this Christmas. I may have to get a couple, because they really are so cute, and the cart can be used as a trinket box now, or as a toy. Plus the Sushi shrimp on top comes off and has a chain, so she can use it as a key chain.
Hope this round up gave you some great gift ideas for your children!
