Creation Crate
Finding a unique, thoughtful gift for kids can be quite a challenge during the holiday season. Why not gift the kids in your life something fun and useful? Creation Crate is a subscription box service that improves tech literacy with both children and adults, without the intimidating technical lingo.
Beginner friendly, each project is designed to increase in difficulty each month so that users can be fluent in the language of technology by the end of the 24-month curriculum. Projects range from building a mood lamp to a memory game focused on programming, to learning how to input a distance reading from an ultrasonic sensor.
Unlike other technology subscription boxes, Creation Crate uses raw electronic components, offering users real-world skills. Subscriptions start at $30 a month with 3, 6, or 12-month subscription packages to choose from.
See my full review HERE of Creation Crate here that also includes a video that my boys made.

Great tips, it is actually very important to buy children useful gifts that could develop them. My daughter, who is 9 years old, I often buy children's detectives, from which she is crazy. To my youngest son, I often buy children's wooden toys from the site woodencaterpillar. This helps him to play safe toys and develop
