The Ultimate Gift Guide for Curious Creative Kids - at B-Inspired Mama

Now that we’ve got mom and dad out of the way (Yes, we let mom and dad go first for this year’s gift guides), let’s move on to the real fun: gifts for our curious and creative kids! 

There’s nothing like having the excuse of the holidays to splurge on fun toys, games and gifts for your kids.

But let’s keep it real… It’s easy to get carried away and go overboard! And then the kids get focused on all. the. things. So the least we can do is be intentional about the gifts we give. Which is why this year all of my top gift ideas for kids support and encourage their natural curiosity and creativity. Because we all want to keep them this awesomely curious and creative as long as possible, right? Let’s check ’em out…

The ULTIMATE Gift Guide for Curious Creative Kids

Arts & Craft Supplies for Creative Kids:

Of course, I’m starting this gift guide with arts and craft supplies! What creative kid doesn’t love doing arts and crafts? Check out my favorites for arts and crafts gifts…

Imaginative & Pretend Play Creative Kids Will LOVE:

There’s nothing quite like pretend play to help kids explore their world (the real one and the make-believe one) and their evolving role in it. And dramatic play is great for developing social skills, practicing emotional regulation, and expanding curiosity and creativity. Here are my favorite toys that encourage pretend play…

STEaM and STEM Toys & Gifts for Kids:

I know how tempting it is to keep your kids from tech in order to encourage more hands-on learning and creativity. But I think moderation and balance are a better tech plan for raising curious & creative kids. And I believe the right tech can actually promote learning and creativity, too. One great way of making tech more beneficial for our kids is to integrate it with science, engineering, and math (STEM) and even with art, too (STEaM). Check out these STEaM and STEM toys and gifts that will keep your child curious and creative and not just vegging out…
