When I created this list of gifts, I turned to the experts…my:
- Nieces: ages 8, 9, 11, and 12
- Nephews: ages 11 and 12
- Daughter: age 15
- Sons: age 12
These were the top gifts they wanted for Christmas this year.
Because my polling was done fro kids ages 8-12, this list mostly includes gifts for preteens and teens, however there are some items on here that are suitable for younger and older ages.
Smithsonian Institute
Space! The Universe as You’ve Never Seen it Before
My kids LOVE this book! It’s full of incredible pictures and lays the text out in an easy to comprehend way that my kids can enjoy. I like the idea of my kids enjoying educational books and yours can too!

Apple
Airpods (3rd Generation)
Airpods are always a great gift idea. I really do recommend getting the actual Apple airpods instead of a knockoff. We’ve done generic brands before and they just don’t last. I’ve never had issues with the Apple brand.
