How to choose the best gifts for preschoolers

We look for unique gifts for grandchildren that you won’t find in your big-box stores. The best gifts for preschoolers will keep your grandchildren entertained for hours.

We also talk to parents about the toys they want to have in their home. You should talk to parents too! Take time to ask their parents what sorts of gifts will be welcome and what they'd like to avoid. Also, be mindful that they may want to be the ones to get their child their first bike or baby doll.

If you are looking for the best gifts for boys or girls age 3-5, you may notice something: the toys on our list are perfect for both boys and girls! We know that the best toys are those that all kids can enjoy!
