Grandkid, niece, nephew, cousin, child of a close friend – however they are connected to you, children can bring loads of delight and fun into your life. When it comes time to give them a gift for a birthday or some other special occasion, you’ll want a gift that they’ll enjoy and remember for years to come. Even if they’re still babies, the gifts you give will be an important part of their life while they grow. Whether it’s clothing, a bit of decor, or a clever handcrafted toy, there are plenty of fantastic gift ideas here on ACA that are perfect for children of different ages!

Handcrafted Wooden Toys

A child’s imagination knows no bounds, and playing at running a restaurant or store is a common kid’s game. Fuel their vivid imagination by gifting them one of Just Creation’s beautifully handmade toys. 

This minimalist style toy cash register comes with everything a child will need to fully immerse themselves in the store or restaurant of their dreams and play for long hours. It comes with a rattan button display, a grocery scanner, and a storage drawer for the money!

Handmade Children’s Clothing

Kids clothing needs to be durable and well-made to withstand the rigors of being young and full of energy, and the products of Sweet Sugar Clothing are just that! Their clothes are designed to be as beautiful as they are practical. 

Available in different sizes for different ages, these clothes are made to last and look just as good for a day of playing as they do for special occasions. Sweet Sugar Clothing makes clothes for both boys and girls and has some cute rompers for babies and toddlers, too!

Fun Games For Everyone

What better way to engage with the special kids in your life than through a fun, action-packed scavenger hunt? Sydney artisan Heggs has a unique take on the scavenger hunt that is sure to delight everyone!

This scavenger hunt involves beautifully illustrated cards that need to be hidden around the home or the yard, with each card providing either a challenge or a treat for the person that finds them. The cards and the packaging they come in are made from recycled material and are also recyclable themselves. 

Sensory Cube

For the very young, the sensory cubes made by Poppy Sonrisa are the perfect gift. Each cube is made from a soft minky base and is finished with digitally printed designs and ribbons and also features a Beech wooden ring that makes it easy to grab and hold onto. There’s also a rattle on the inside to make noise when the cube is shaken. 

These sensory cubes are available with a personalisation option to add the initials of the recipient to one side of the cube. For easy maintenance, the cube can be spot cleaned and the wooden rings can be wiped down with soap and water.  

An Educational Art Print

Another great gift idea for kids is a fun educational bit of decor for their room, such as the A-Z Australian Animal Alphabet Art Print by Tilly Scribbles.

Featuring Tilly Scribbles’ original Australian animal illustrations, this cute art print is made of 100% recycled material and has two different colour options of dark blue or light blue. It will not only look great on a kid’s bedroom wall, it will also help them to learn their alphabet!

Another Way to Have Fun With Play-Dough

For kids, play-dough provides an endless source of entertainment, so why not give a gift made by Nora Lane that will enhance that entertainment? 

These play-dough stamps will encourage creativity and independent play. You can choose between four different themes (prehistoric, under the sea, animals, and mystical). There are six stamps and included with them are two different colours of play-dough. Young children will love these but older kids might enjoy them too!

Incredible Gifts For All Ages

Children are so often a source of joy so it only makes sense to show them how much they mean to you through. One of these amazing handmade gifts will ensure that lots of fun will be had and joyful memories will be created!
