42ggwpomApproximate age 3+

The Mandalorian is wildly popular, not least because of the adorable baby Yoda. And if your child loves The Mandalorian, please them with a plush or plastic toy of the green-eared creature. And may the Force be with you!

19. Constructor

q0hvad3cAge from 1.5 years

A construction set is not only scattered parts under the feet of parents (yes, it hurts, I know), but also 20-30 minutes of peace and quiet while a bunny or a sun snores in concentration, trying to combine part A with part B.

The main thing is to choose a construction set according to age, and if you have any doubts, choose a model with fewer parts.

18. Remote controlled robot

2zvvagqtAge 3+

A miniature robot that you can take with you anywhere – isn’t that a boy’s dream?

17. Play-Doh modeling compound

rewrmtqqAge 3+

With the Play-Doh set, a child can feel like a pastry chef making cakes, cookies and candies, sculpt a pet, a scary dinosaur or a funny pig, make colorful ice cream - in a word, create whatever comes to mind (or strictly follow the molds that are in the set).

16. Quadcopter

jmfezm5mAge from 7 years

A small and easy-to-use quadcopter or a more advanced model with a camera is one of the most chic children's gifts for the New Year 2025. By controlling the drone, the child will train his reaction and fine motor skills.

And a quadcopter flight in the winter sky will delight not only the child, but also his friends. Becoming popular among peers thanks to an interesting device is perhaps not very good, but let's be honest, who wouldn't want that?

15. Electronic drawing tablet

ugdc5t4nAge 5+

Does your child like to draw? Then let Santa Claus put a gift under the tree in the form of an electronic tablet, with which you can create notes and drawings. You can erase an unsuccessful image with one click of a button.

The cost of an inexpensive tablet is 1,500 rubles, which, you must admit, is a small price to pay for a child’s joy.

14. Backpack

fst2um2dAge 7+

For a schoolchild, especially a teenager, a stylish look is very important. Therefore, before buying a backpack, pay attention not only to the ergonomics of the model, but also to its appearance.

The most practical and at the same time beautiful backpacks include models from BRAUBERG, Wenger, Xiaomi, and if you want something unusual, pay attention to PIXEL backpacks.

13. Microscope

lrenufzeAge 4+

A whole world, previously hidden from view, will appear before your child when he or she looks into a microscope for the first time. And it is not necessary to buy an “adult” one. There are inexpensive and easy-to-use children’s models that provide magnification from 40 to 1000 times, have LED lighting and an experiment kit included.

12. Sweatshirt or warm sweater with an original print

k4cashooAge 3+

The best New Year's gift for children is one that makes not only them happy, but also their parents. And what could be nicer than knowing that in winter the child is reliably protected from the cold by warm and beautiful clothes?

To ensure that the recipient likes such a gift, be sure to ask what your child is interested in. When ordering a print, focus on his preferences, not yours.

11. Money

ezsqrc0aAge 7+

Your son or daughter has long since stopped believing in Santa Claus, and to all questions: "What do you want for New Year?" he or she shrugs uncertainly? Well, an amount that is affordable for the family budget is a universal gift that any little (and not so little) picky person will be happy to receive.

Even if he or she spends it on something trivial, in your opinion, so be it. It is your child's choice that will bring him or her either joy or the realization that money should be spent on something meaningful.

10. Winter heated jacket

0vyk3uuiAge 10+

Stylish, fashionable, youthful. And also convenient, practical and not too expensive for outerwear (about 7,000-10,000 rubles, depending on the store markup).

This jacket is heated thanks to a special high-tech film made of carbon nanotubes, which is located under the lining of the product. And the jacket heating itself is powered by a power bank, which is not included in the kit.

9. Kids smart watches

n4xnin1kAge 4+

A good smart watch for kids is a great gift not only for kids, but also for parents. A young man or a young lady will brag about the gadget to their peers, and moms and dads will be calm that the child has not gone beyond the permitted geozone.

Some smart watches for kids even have a "secret listening" feature so parents know if their child is in trouble.

There are many models of children's smart watches on sale: from versions aimed at preschoolers and younger schoolchildren, to solid devices that teenagers are not embarrassed to wear.

8. Night light projector of the starry sky

q5q3f33mAge 3+

Even if the world seems small (and a trip to the planetarium is impossible), this smart tool is the best option for an original gift for children for the New Year.

With it, you can look at the stars without leaving home. Most models have a night sky rotation mode, and some also have stationary slides for viewing planets, constellations, and much more. In addition, with such a night light, the child will not be afraid of the dark.

7. Toy tool set

atviovblAge 3+

Let little ones join in the home improvement fun—or let them imitate their parents' skills—with a tool kit that includes a toy drill, hammer, nails, screws, and more.

If you are looking for a New Year's gift for a girl, then the set of tools can be replaced with a set of children's cosmetics, a toy kitchen or a set of hair accessories (mirror, comb, bow, elastic bands, etc.).

6. Play tent

hnfpjuidAge 2+

With such a tent (as well as a yurt, teepee, and even a tent combined with a ball pit), a child will have the opportunity to be alone, play hide-and-seek, and also climb in and out of his shelter at any time.

5. Trampoline

qdw1r0rmAge 3+

Admit it, you would also be happy with such a gift? With its help, you can jump carefree, cheerfully waving your arms and landing on your feet or falling on your butt. And even if it's cold outside and you don't want to go for a walk, with a trampoline your child will have the opportunity to "go wild" without leaving the house.

4. Smartphone

5b2tpgnwAge 6+

In our world full of gadgets, even children should have a smartphone. Call parents, text friends, play games, listen to music, secretly take a photo of a beautiful classmate...

And if your child has long and tearfully asked you to buy a mobile phone or replace an old and glitchy smartphone with a new one, then New Year is the best time to fulfill this wish. Fortunately, there are now many options for good and inexpensive smartphones. You can do something more cunning: buy a smartphone for yourself, and give your child your old one.

3. Laptop

jgwhd0sjAge 7+

Nobody buys a laptop just for studying. Therefore, if you decide to make such an expensive gift to your beloved son or daughter for the New Year, look for a model among the best laptops of 2020 that can handle modern games on minimum settings. Perhaps this will be useful to you too.

2. Dance mat

clgpdynlAge 3+

A fun and unusual gift that will appeal to both small children and active teenagers. It develops a sense of rhythm, coordination of movements, reaction and simply improves mood.

Such devices can play a variety of melodies, have several difficulty levels, and allow you to play alone or with two people using 2 gamepads.

1. Magnetic tablet

vspkphitAge 5+

The top New Year gifts for children is headed by a children's tablet, which allows you to compose pictures or words using small magnetic balls located in many cells. They can be moved using a special handle, which is included in the set.

The tablet also comes with stencils, which will make it easy for your child to master the technique of “magnetic drawing”.
