Best Holiday Gift Ideas For Toddlers

First, let’s clarify what age we’re talking about when we say “toddlers.”

There is no steadfast definition of the upper limit of toddlerhood; ranges go anywhere from 1-2 to 1-5, so for the sake of simplicity we will meet in the middle. All of the gifts featured in this gift guide would be wonderful for children that range from 1 year to 3 years of age.

With that said, we’ve rounded up some wonderful options for all personality types and budgets.

Best Holiday Gift Ideas For Toddlers

Rollplay Powersport 12v ATV

If your little one likes motorcycles, their body will shake with excitement when you give them this. The battery-powered ride-on travels forward up to 3 MPH and reverse up to 2.5 MPH with rubber traction strips on the oversized wheels - basically fast enough that your toddler will love it, but not so fast that you're biting your nails with fear. Pressing down on the foot pedal starts the ride.

KeaBabies Soothe Sleep Bag

Organic, super-soft and lightweight, the Soothe Sleep Bag was designed for safe sleeping, keeping your baby snug and comfortable while they sleep through the night. Basically this is a gift for kids AND parents - and it's a lot more affordable than many other options on the market, but it certainly doesn't look or feel like it.

The bag is made with 0.5 TOG (so you can dress your little one in cozy PJs underneath) and there's a full bottom to top zip opening that allows for easy nighttime changes should they be necessary. Three sizes are available as baby grows: Small (0-4 months), Medium (5-15 months) and Large (15-24 months).

Hape DJ Mix and Spin Studio

Kids can play the keyboard by turning the dial to hear one of four instrumental sounds and 18 different sound effects. This is a wonderful, interactive option.
