The Smarty team of Cheryl, Tonya and Jen V joined forces to bring their top picks for kids aged 6-10 years old. What a fun age group this is! I wish some of these things were under the tree for me!

Fin Fun Mermaid Tail ($40) This is the real deal on Mermaid Fun. It’s a monofin, a mermaid tail cover and a swim top. Watch videos you tube videos on safety. My daughter was so determined to improve her swim skills to advance to wearing the full outfit.

Good Night Stories for Rebel Stories of 100 women who dared to change the world. One fairytale story at a time. Get both Volumes in a gift set for $65.

LEGO, LEGO, LEGO ($64) You can’t go wrong with a solid LEGO kit. Try this Harry Potter edition or go for LEGO Friends, LEGO City, Ninjago, Star Wars, you know name it. If it’s LEGO, it’s going to be loved by this age group.

VTech Kidizoom Smartwatch ($43) This Smartwatch for the littles takes pictures, has a pedometer, is waterproof, and more. It also has an analog clock feature to help them learn to tell time.

Girls DIY Color Me Athletic Leggings ($50) This set of leggings comes with a marker set to create her own personalization that she can wear!

Slime Kit ($28) Creating slime with the kids is a ton of fun! They are always so amazed how it turns out. I secretly love that it adds a little “science” to their world. This boys/girls kit seems to have it all!

Voice and Music Lessons Charlotte Star Room has the BEST voice lessons in the QC (and if you’ve got a birthday coming up, check out their awesome Pop Star Parties!). They also do video production, so if you’ve got a budding artist or theater lover, some time with the professionals at Charlotte Star Room is the perfect gift.
