Holiday Gift Guide for Creative Kids

Well let the holiday shopping begin! Only 10 days to Black Friday and 42 days until Christmas. Have you started your holiday shopping?

I wanted to put together a few gift guide ideas in case you are in need of inspiration. This first gift guide is perfect for our family because each of these items my artistic little girl would love.

If you have creative kids hopefully they might also like some of the ideas below. If you have already done your Christmas shopping, you might save some of these ideas for future birthday parties.

To make things easy, all of these crafts and art supplies can be found at your local Walmart or I have included links directly to Walmart.com.  Walmart has free shipping on orders of $35+ or you can select to pick your items up in store.   Many of the items selected also have 2 day shipping right now so order now and you will have these delivered right to your doorstep well before Christmas.

Silly Scents Art case

Fun kit for travel! My big girl loves these kits to take to Grandma’s house and my little girl often brings these to her sister’s baseball and soccer practice.

Watercolor Pencils

Great stocking stuffer idea.  Watercolor pencils are so fun to use- sketch as usual or dip these into water to create watercolor paintings.

Art Pad 

Real art paper is a must for any little ones that like to color, draw or paint.

 Scratch Art Board

Another stocking stuffer idea that is also great for travel or to keep the kids entertained in the car.  These are pretty much mess free and create such pretty art by just using the enclosed stick to scratch off the black overlay and reveal the rainbow colors underneath.

Emoji Maker Stamper

Fun if you have kiddos that love all things Emoji.  Make 16 custom stampers plus mix up your own ink colors.  These would be perfect to jazz up thank you notes.

 Tie Dye Party Tub 

Tie Dye isn’t just for summer!  This big kit would be fun for slumber parties or rainy days inside. Have you seen our Tie Dye rainbow sneakers?  One of my favorite crafts ever.

 Crayola Oil Pastels 

We love coloring with pastels.  These are fantastic for creating richly colored and bold art.

Mr Sketch Neon Markers

Another fun item are these Mr Sketch markers.  We love the neon colors and the fun scents.

Alex Hair Chalk Salon

Fun for play dates when the kids want to play dress up.  This is going under the tree for my 8 year old this year.  She adores fancy things and makeup and this is a safe way for her to have fun experimenting.

Melissa & Doug Stained Glass Made Easy

I grabbed one of these kits awhile back and was surprised at how much the kids enjoyed it.  This kept them busy for quite awhile and the outcome is a pretty little piece of art that would be a fun gift for friends or Grandparents.

Shrinky Dinks

Did you have these as a kid?  They are so fun!  Great way to keep the kids busy on a rainy day.

 Personalized ABC Beads

Let the kids express themselves with these ABC beads- write names, inspirational words, BFF or private jokes.

Singer Simple Sewing Machine

My 10 year old has this exact machine and she learned to sew last year on it.  She has made gifts, doll clothings, little accessories for her room (like pillow cases and such)… we have both enjoyed learning to sew together.  Great item for crafty kids or kids that might be into fashion and decor.

 How to Draw Art Book

Fun to include with your art supplies and art pad.  Add in a little How to Draw book to inspire and teach kids how to draw all sorts of things.

 Crayola Modeling Clay  

Modeling Clay is very popular right now to make all sorts of little items.  My 10 year old loves clay and spends hours creating little animals and such.  This includes a variety of colors of clay plus some little molds and cutters.

I hope you like some of these items!  If you have other suggestions for fun gifts for creative kids, please leave a comment below!
