### Color-In Pajamas
[](https://luxe.digital/loves/uncommon-goods/)
Those fears of coming home to thoroughly scribbled walls or children's unique artworks dotted all over [prized furniture](/home/best-online-furniture-stores/)? Take that artistic talent (even if it's yet to be understood or interpreted by the world) and redirect it into something that's - literally - designed for covering with doodles.
[The Color-In Dino Pyjamas](https://luxe.digital/loves/uncommon-goods/) are one of the best unique kids gifts and are both soft and comforting, with a subtle off white shade and plenty of outlines on front to back. Spend the afternoon scribbling away and bringing each illustration to life and simply air-cure the pajamas for 24 hours or iron the design to set the colors before bedtime. Don't be surprised if your child wakes up a future artist after all.
**Ages:** 3-10

### Wash-Off Nail Polish
[](https://luxe.digital/loves/uncommon-goods/)
Nail polish might often call itself non toxic but it's understandable if you'd still rather keep it away from young hands. But if you've got a young child who's desperate for equally as beautiful nails as yours, the ideal midpoint comes in the form of [Wash-Off Nail Polish](https://luxe.digital/loves/uncommon-goods/).
Child friendly both in chemical makeup and color, this multi-pack comes in five vibrant shades and promises to be the star of the show. While it might look just like normal nail varnish, this one scrubs off with soap and water. When you're finished with nail painting, the box itself is also designed to be colored in.

### Parachute Baby Towel
[](https://luxe.digital/loves/parachute-home/)
Struggling to decide what to buy a newborn who seemingly has all of the essentials covered already? Think outside the box - or outside the bath in this case - with the addition of a [Hooded Baby Towel](https://luxe.digital/loves/parachute-home/).
This one from Parachute is our favorite, thanks to its irresistibly soft long-staple Turkish cotton and delicate color. A baby towel is one of those things that's not ultimately essential but is definitely desirable; the sort of thing an over-stressed parent might not think of immediately but will absolutely appreciate when it comes to bathing baby in the colder months of the year.

### EarthHero Finger Paint
[](https://luxe.digital/loves/earthhero-finger-paint/)
[Earthhero's Eco-kids Finger Paint](https://luxe.digital/loves/earthhero-finger-paint/) might look like they come in soft, pastel shades but as soon as you mix these planet-friendly paints with a dash of water, you'll admire the vibrant colors that pop out. These non-toxic finger paints are great for kids just developing their own artistic streak, made from food-safe, non-GMO ingredients including potatoes, rice, and beans.

### Gorjana Adjustable Bracelet
[](https://luxe.digital/loves/gorjana/)
We've talked a lot about our [favorite jewelry brands](/watches-jewelry/best-jewelry-brands/) before but not all of them are quite so child-friendly.

But [Gorjana's Bespoke Plate Adjustable Bracelet](https://luxe.digital/loves/gorjana/) is a great midpoint for something that's delicate and sweet without being overly expensive or liable for breaking.
Each of these bracelets comes with the opportunity for customization, so you can even go one step further with an engraved name on the side. It's perfectly dainty and ensures a much-loved, thoughtful gift for whoever's lucky enough to receive it.

A cute and tonal addition to your glassware drawer that's child friendly, these cups come with two holders and - hopefully - the promise of more liquid ending up being drunk rather than splashed on all nearby surfaces. If you have a child who's pushing for their independence, these cups add to that experience without breakages.

## Buyers guide to the best gifts for kids
Struggling to decide what to buy for the child in your life? It's a justified concern: children don't tend to have the same subtlety when it comes to feigning joy about a not-so-loved present. But, along with our gift guide, here are some handy tips to keep in mind when it comes to buying the best gift for kids.
### Age safety
Something that's likely to be just as much of a concern to the child in question as it is for their parents, you'll want to ensure your kids' gifts are age-appropriate. That means no small parts or things liable to be eaten for very young children and a careful double check even for slightly older kids that their present can't accidentally be swallowed.
You'll also want to check if the present is age appropriate from an enjoyment perspective. Buy a gift for a child that they would have played with a few years ago and you might just find it disregarded after a quick glance. It's not so much of a hassle if you buy a gift for a child that's slightly too old for them - as long as it's not something that's edible or has an upcoming expiry date.
### Developmental age
What's better than a toy you can play with? A toy you can play with that's also got an educational element. One of the best ways to score top points with parents and an easy way to claim credit for any child genius that may reveal itself in the future, a sensory development toy will help bring a child's imagination to life without any kind of conscious learning.
### Materials
Most gifts for children are, as you'd expect, child-friendly anyway, but it's worth double-checking fabrics and beauty products to ensure they're suitable for young skin.
When buying clothes for children, you might see OEKO-TEX certification on the label, which means the fabrics are free from all known allergens and dangerous chemicals. Similarly, when buying bath or beauty products, choose ones made from natural ingredients wherever possible.
### Color
If you're buying gifts for young children, bright colors almost always go down best. Bright shades - especially when incorporated into prints or patterns - are great for baby development. If you're buying for an older child, there's more room for experimentation.
Obviously, the easiest way to choose a color is to ask the parent (or the child yourself if possible) to see which would go down well. A rise in sustainably created presents for kids also means you won't just find the same garish bright shades nowadays, if the children in question would prefer muted tones or soft creams.
### Durability
Let's face it: most kids already have too many toys. And while it's easy to pick out a new game or fluffy toy, there are so many sustainably made options available that we'd recommend going for something else, instead. The benefits? Not only will sustainable Christmas gifts likely have much longer shelf lives than their plastic counterpart, but they’re also likely made from healthier ingredients, making them safer toys to play with.
