Kids love dinosaurs, making this an excellent hobby to encourage. Dinosaurs provide endless hours of imaginative play while opening doors to exploring various ecosystems, histories and geographies – plus, they make wonderful presents!

Another fun educational toy would be Got2Glow LCD writing tablets which help improve handwriting skills. And you can always go for the classic Animatronic T-Rex Dinosaur.
Toy dinosaurs
Kids of all ages love dinosaurs, making a toy like this hard to go wrong. Some models even support cognitive development by helping kids explore their surroundings more fully.
Some dinosaur toys are interactive as well, such as this jumbo set containing five dinosaurs crafted from durable plastic that is perfectly sized for little hands and comes complete with an activity guide to show how you can move, roar and feed your dinos.
Other toys offer more unique experiences, like this multifunctional projector that displays film slides with images that make bedtime an exciting adventure for all family members. Matteobenni toys make using the device simple with one button activating all functions – perfect for young children!
Other great gifts for kids that will please include a paint-by-sticker book featuring 10 mosaic pictures or the Barbie three-in-one DreamCamper that transforms from van to boat and truck. Books make excellent presents too – Sherlock Holmes Retold for Children Box Set is an engaging option perfect for fans of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s detective stories!
Educational dinosaurs
Your 3-year-old is developing problem-solving and social skills at home and school, so gifts that encourage their curiosity and creativity can help. One such toy that encourages imagination is the Laugh & Learn Servin’ Up Fun Food Truck; its kitchen, ingredients, chef-cat oven and giant cupcake can provide hours of creative play! Fans of Ariel from Disney’s live-action movie may also appreciate it as part of this gift set!
Paleontology can provide children with a great way to learn about biology and evolution, yet children’s fascination with dinosaurs may deter them from understanding their ecology and behavior. Furthermore, most books about dinosaurs portray them in neutral backgrounds so as not to distract their attention away from learning more about anatomy and behavior of these extinct creatures.
Look for books that depict reconstructions of dinosaurs within an ecological context and encourage children to investigate their anatomy and behavior, or try a science kit with child-safe binoculars to observe birds and other wildlife outdoors.
Interactive dinosaurs
No matter your budget, there’s sure to be something fun and educational available that can keep toddlers and preschoolers occupied! Gifts will help foster creativity, develop social skills, encourage outdoor playtime and foster creativity amongst children as well as providing entertainment and fun for parents as well!
We highly recommend toys such as the Fisher-Price Laugh and Learn Servin’ Up Fun Food Truck for older kids, which encourages motor skills development while playing over 125 songs, sounds, and phrases. Or consider the DIY neon sign kit from Moose Toys so your creative child can unleash his or her inner artist.
Tweens will enjoy painting by sticker books with perforated pages that make removing and framing completed artworks easy. Ranger Rick magazine provides interesting animal facts and games. For something different, give an Osmo Genius Kit, featuring five mind-boggling games!
Realistic dinosaurs
Children who love dinosaurs would make great recipients for realistic dino toys that promote imaginative play, often soft and less threatening than other kinds. Plus, open-ended play encourages development as it allows kids to come up with their own scenarios and set rules as they go along!
The Dinosaur Toys for Kids set is comprised of 12 realistic 7-inch dinosaur figures that allow kids to imagine prehistoric adventures with ease. Plus, its storage box makes cleanup simple! Recommended for children aged 3-7.
Skillmatics Card Game Dinosaur Cards, suitable for kids ages 8 and above, is another fantastic option to consider.
