A very cool and educational gift! This Earth Globe is cool because it is balanced on a magnetic base. The magnetic Earth Globe is without political borders and you can easily lift the globe from its base. Available in small or large sizes.

You and your little ones build this camera yourself, it’s super easy and assembles in a couple of hours! The camera uses 35mm film and is exposed by light through a tiny hole in front of camera. Because there is no lens, the image will be in focus at all distances. The best pinhole pictures are taken on a bright day. The camera must be very still when shooting. Teach your kids to do-it-yourself with the Pinhole Camera Solargraphy Kit.

These Funny Piggy Banks make saving fun. Though constructed of plastic, these piggy banks are durable and solid. A coin slot on the top and a screw plug on bottom makes it easy to access money and each funny piggy bank comes well packaged in a cute coordinating box.

This pretend mini-kitchen from Ikea, is made of birch plywood and other hardy materials. Kids will be able to play with a pretend sink with faucet, stove-top oven (with real heat lights!) and counter-top workspace.

Another great thing is that this toy will grow with the child as the legs are height adjustable to 3 different positions.

This is a great way to share quality time with your children and instill a love of baking at an early age. Kids really love creating in the kitchen — it’s both educational and fun.
