Gifts for Kids (2026)
Kids' wish lists change by the week, so the gifts that last are the ones that get them building, moving, or making something of their own. The Makeblock mBot ($69.99) is a first robot kit they assemble and then program, and the Redcat Ascent-32 V2 Rock Crawler ($89.99) comes ready to run with radio, battery, and charger included.
For movie nights, the Aurzen EAZZE E1R Roku TV Smart Portable Mini Projector ($139.99) weighs under a pound and turns a wall or ceiling into a screen. The Funphix Fort 154 Pc Set ($143.09) builds giant glow-in-the-dark forts, and the FanttikRide C9 Pro Electric Scooter for Kids ($209.99) gives them their own ride around the neighborhood. Prices run from $32.99 to $359.99, and every pick comes from a brand we've researched.
