Every time I write a gift recommendation for a child, it's actually quite simple for me, on the one hand, I do have quite experience in this area, and on the other hand, there are too many options!
Although there are a lot of choices, the number of recommendations I write a list is limited every time, and it will not be suitable for everyone, so often friends will come to me for personalized recommendations after reading the list. So this year's June 1st, in order to make it easier for myself, I will first summarize some ideas for you on how to buy gifts for children, even if my recommendation today is not suitable for you, you can also find a gift that suits you according to my ideas! (The implication is...) Please be self-reliant, please, please! ）
Idea 1: Give "open-ended" gifts
What is an open gift? I'll give you an example to understand - for example, Lego, is a typical open gift, on the basis of basic elements and accessories, children need to use their imagination to create their own works, DIY to create their own works, this kind of gift has a lot of choices, it should be said that it is the most popular category for children.
For example, the Biller creative necklace/bracelet DIY set that I used to give to my friends' children belongs to this category of gifts, which are very popular with little girls, not only to cultivate aesthetics, but also to help children practice hand movements.
Idea 2: Give the whole family a gift to play with
Most DIY gifts can be played by adults and children, and some gifts are crazier for adults to play than children, such as the karaoke record player (a karaoke machine that the whole family rushes to play) that I once recommended.
Idea 3: Give the kind of gift that conveys values
Values are a bit abstract to say, but now many children's toys or supplies have the function of "carrying the way", and some values are obvious, such as the ROR wealth compass that I once recommended, although it is an investment and financial management game, but it also contains values such as birth, old age, sickness and death, filial piety to parents, and gratitude to society (a good gift that is interesting and can cultivate values); Some values are hidden, such as those traditional and intangible cultural heritage children's gifts, which contain a kind of cultural pride and self-confidence.
For example, many children's products use sustainable materials, which itself conveys an environmental value, which of course requires adults to pass on this truth to children.
Idea 4: Give the gift of building skills
There are too many such gifts, edutainment gifts, not only intellectual gifts, but also social, physical, cognitive, linguistic, critical thinking... The gifts are also very well worth giving.
The most typical is a variety of children's toys under the concept of STEAM, I have recommended a lot of them before, you can go through them.
Idea 5: Give gifts that bring joy
Finally, let's get back to happiness together!
In fact, when I was a child, one of my favorite gifts was a small iron bucket and a small shovel, and my favorite game was to shovel sand with them! It doesn't contain any advanced skills, and there are no values, just a very simple gift that makes me happy and will be remembered deeply decades later.
So you can forget the four points mentioned above, don't be so complicated, just give a gift that makes children laugh happily!
I would like to recommend a wave of Children's Day gifts worth giving!
01 Light and Shadow Visual Flipbook
Although there are many touch books, pop-up books, and flip books with hidden mechanisms, many children are still more obsessed with electronic products, after all, moving pictures are more attractive. And the set of picture books I want to recommend today, separated from electronic products, can also see moving pictures.
When I was a child, I was very popular with a kind of raster animation card, which is rare now, but this set of picture books actually uses the principle of raster animation (also called moiré stripe animation), because the page is connected to the raster board, and you can see lifelike dynamic pictures during the slow turning process.

This set of books has "African Animals", "Ocean", "Dinosaurs", "Jungle" and other topics of interest to children, in addition to vivid animal pictures, each page is also equipped with popular science knowledge, but the text part is in English, suitable for slightly older, a certain English foundation for children.
02 DIY小狗玩偶材料包
I have recommended a lot of plush dolls suitable for gifts, and interested friends can go to see them (plush toys that children and adults like).
For older children with strong hands-on ability, you can actually consider giving a doll material kit and letting the child make one by himself. Although it is not a famous brand, it will be more rewarding and more cherished to make a cute doll by yourself.
What I would like to recommend is a puppy doll material kit, which includes a full set of materials and tools including fiber fabric for fur, PP cotton for filling, needle and thread, etc. What's more special is that there is also a voice recorder in this material bag, which can be sewn into the dog's belly, and the switch can be controlled from the outside of the doll after sewing. So, it's still a recordable doll!

In addition to the puppy doll material pack, this store also has a rabbit doll material kit, and interested friends can go and see it for themselves.
03 Merlot "Chinese Cuisine" clay set
Dough is one of the most popular handmade toys for children, and now there are many themed clay sets that allow children to learn about the relevant cultural knowledge in the process of making dough, which is the gift that I mentioned earlier and can convey values.
With the theme of "Chinese Food", there are four sets of "Mother's Breakfast", "Auspicious Desserts", "Chinese Food Shop" and "Apple Noodle Machine", each of which contains a variety of traditional delicacies. For example, you can make 12 kinds of traditional sweets, such as Yonghe cake, koi fruit, peach blossom cake, and copper coin cake, and it is also served with a pastry plate.
The raw material of colored clay is edible flour material, and the reasonable formula makes it feel soft and non-sticky. The color matching of the colored clay is also very particular, and the traditional Chinese color is selected with elegant atmosphere. In the process of kneading the colored clay, we can not only understand our Chinese food culture, but also get a good aesthetic edification.

04 Mideer弥鹿卡拉ok机
I've also recommended the karaoke machine before (there are more gifts that children will love here), but that one is more suitable for playing at home, while the Mideer is much smaller in size, but the function is not lost, and the simple shape will also be liked by older children.
This karaoke machine consists of a microphone and a small speaker, which can be compatible with most mainstream music apps on the market, can be connected via Bluetooth, and also supports memory cards.
The sound quality of many children's karaoke machines is so-so, more like a toy, and Mideer's comes with intelligent noise cancellation, and buyers generally report that the sound quality is good and more ear-friendly.
There are also 4 voice changing functions to add a sense of fun. The small speaker can also be used separately to play stories, music, etc., and can sing for 6 hours on a single charge, which is very durable. The little one, bring it for picnics and parties, and the children can have fun all day long.

05 JAKI Block Gacha Robot
Capsule toy machines and Lego toys are the most popular things for children, and the building block brand JAKI has combined the two to launch a building block gacha toy, and it has also been made into a cute robot shape, which really understands the hearts of children!
The height of the assembled robot capsule toy machine is about 24cm, and there are two expressions that can be replaced. There are 14 colorful gacha capsules in the robot's belly, and you can DIY the gacha content by yourself.
Not only can you spin out the gacha, but the robot has 17 movable mechanisms on its body, allowing you to pose in a variety of poses. Therefore, giving this set of toys is equivalent to being able to play with building blocks, play gacha, and have one more robot toy, a gift with multiple fun.

06 Keeppley X China Aerospace Co-branded Rocket Model Building Blocks
The gachapon robot building blocks recommended above are more suitable for younger children, and the following is a building block toy that is suitable for older children and has a more sense of science and technology.
Keeppley, endorsed by Jay Chou, is a sub-brand of the well-known local toy brand "Enlightenment", specializing in trendy play building blocks, with many well-known IP authorizations, and is also a cooperative toy brand of China Aerospace, which has launched a variety of co-branded building block toys of the aerospace series.
The Long March 5 is one of Keeppley's aerospace series, and as an important milestone in China's aerospace industry, it is of great commemorative significance for children. The total length of this set of building block toys is about 47cm, and various details are accurately restored according to the "fat five" ratio, which can give children an in-depth understanding of the structure of the spacecraft during the construction process.

After putting together, the four boosters can be taken off separately, the overall difficulty is not great, look at the comments in the comments Children over 8 years old can basically complete it independently, for little aerospace fans, this set of toys must be super satisfying!
07 Beidou intelligent point-reading voice AR globe
After recommending the aerospace category, I would like to recommend a powerful smart globe that is very suitable for geographical enlightenment and can be read.
Beidou's globe includes: knowing China, understanding the world, English explanation, cultural paradise, astronomical knowledge, wonderful knowledge, geography game seven sections, covering geography, history and culture and other tens of thousands of knowledge points.

This globe can be operated independently by children over 3 years old, and it is a gift that can accompany children for a long time.

08 Sanliou retro camera
If you don't want your child to take pictures with their phones (they are likely to play with their phones...). You can buy a children's camera for your child. However, many children's cameras focus on cuteness in terms of styling, but the shooting hardware can't keep up. One of my student readers recommended me a camera that meets their aesthetic and photography needs, and the price is not too expensive, so let's refer to it.
This Sanrio co-branded camera is very close to a professional card player in appearance, it has 48 million pixels, detailed image quality, rich details, and 16x optical zoom, as well as excellent image stabilization to ensure stable shooting.
It also has features such as fun headshots, time-lapse shots, and more. A full charge can shoot for about 3 hours continuously, and it is basically enough for small photography fans to go out and sweep the streets. There are three types of cameras: blue, pink, and purple, so you can find the right one for both boys and girls.
