10 Christmas Gifts for Kids That Love to Build

Building toys and activities are a fantastic Christmas gift for kids. These types of toys allow for children to engage in open-ended play which can last for hours at times! 

 

Building toys also grow with the child. So instead of being tossed aside after a month or even a week later-building activities keep kids interested for a long time.
