We may earn money or products from the companies mentioned in this post. Please see policies for more information.

I couldn’t figure out what to call this gift guide. This one is for the kids who finally learned to love reading after finally finding a non-fiction book that interested them. Or it’s for the kids who devour the Guinness Book of World Records when it comes out each year. Kids who love figuring out how and why things work or who love observing the world around them.

I think this guide is more inspiration than guide. There may be some perfect gifts here for a kid you’re shopping for but I hope at the very least is sparks some inspiration for a gift they will love!

  1. Perplexus Warp – they have several versions of Perplexus but this is a gift we love to give for the kid that has everything or the kid we aren’t quite sure what to get.
