Make it a great bonding activity with our Origami Paper Kit. This starter kit contains 50 different origami projects, from detailed animals to elegant paper hearts, as well as 450 sheets of origami paper, 50 of which feature beautiful Japanese patterns.

It’s a fun and interactive way to encourage children to express their creativity.

 

 

LEGO Technic Racing Car Building Kit

 

For budding engineers and race car enthusiasts, the LEGO Technic Racing Car Building Kit is a fantastic choice. This intricate set provides the thrill of building a detailed racing car with working steering and suspension. While there are several designs available, we’re quite partial to the McLaren Senna GTR supercar with a detailed V8 engine with moving pistons and dihedral doors. Adult assistance may be required but isn’t that what dads, uncles, and grandpas are for?

Crayola Air Marker Sprayer Airbrush Kit

 

Nurture the next Banksy with this Airbrush Kit from Crayola. The Air Marker Sprayer features a motorized and electric-powered design that requires no manual cranking, pumping, or squeezing. These markers use a washable ink formula, so all it takes to clean off a surface is a gentle rinse.

With this simple water filtration kit, you can show kids how water is cleaned and purified by using commonly available materials! It includes everything you need to build a simple water filter—sand, pebbles, a plastic beaker, a water dropper, 4 filter chambers, a filter support card, 4 pieces of filter paper and a detailed, step-by-step instruction guide. It’s the perfect opportunity to teach them the importance of clean water and discover the process of filtering water on their own.
