Favorite toys
Children look forward to toys on their birthday. They even sometimes order adults what they want. Therefore, we offer the TOP ten ideas on this topic.
- Water or snow blaster. Choose a gift that suits the season, because the birthday person will immediately want to try it out. And the weapon itself looks very cool, like the characters in a cartoon or computer game. Price from 200 rubles.
- Interactive robot. It can be controlled, it can be programmed, but most importantly, the robot will become a child’s best friend. He can talk, dance, ride and walk, and he also gestures and has facial expressions. Cost from 1500 rubles.
- A set of metal cars. The set should have many car brands with beautiful airbrushing. Inertial wheels help to develop high speed on a straight plane or on a track. The cost is around 500 rubles.
- Extendable lightsaber. If a child is delighted with Star Wars, then he probably wants to receive the same sword as a gift. The sliding (telescopic) blade is also good because it is convenient to put it in a common basket with toys. Price from 400 rubles.
- Projection shooting range. No bullets or balls that can cause injury, just a light beam! To play, you need to turn off the lights in the room and start fighting bats and ghosts that appear from a cute skeleton named Johnny. Cost from 2000 rubles.
- Transformable robot. This is both a car and a big fancy monster in one toy. It all depends on how to assemble it (or vice versa - disassemble it). And from some models you can make a dinosaur or a spacecraft. Price from 500 rubles.
- Special equipment car. This could be a fire or police car, an ambulance, or even a rescue helicopter. Only the functionality of the car must be believable - sirens, flashing lights and detailed tuning. Price from 300 rubles.
- Radio-controlled car, helicopter or boat. The birthday boy is already old enough to drive this transport independently. By the way, many car models can return to their original position if something goes wrong. Price from 700 rubles.
- Basic machine. These can be cool jeeps with precise detailing or characters from the cartoon “Cars”. They are fun to play with and roll them around the floor. You can also put them together into a collection. Price from 200 rubles.
- Railway. For a five-year-old child, you can buy a tabletop track with a small number of railroad segments. The main thing is that everything should be as if it were real—the light on the train was on, and the locomotive itself was humming. Cost from 700 rubles.

Children's wardrobe
Clothes and shoes need to be comfortable and definitely fashionable! At the age of five, kids already begin to understand what is trending among their peers, and they want to wear the same thing as everyone else.

- Sneakers. Quite soft, but with a tight heel and toe. If it is not possible to buy shoes made entirely of leather, then at least the inner lining should be made from it. And the fasteners, of course, have two Velcro. Price from 400 rubles.
- Denim overalls. The cuffs on the trousers should have wide elastic bands, and there should be pockets on the sides and chest. The straps can be adjusted in length by fastening them with buttons. Colorful appliqués don't hurt either. Price from 500 rubles.
- Sports suit. For the summer, this could be a football player's suit - drawstring briefs with a T-shirt or T-shirt. And for the cool season - an olympic jacket with pants. The cuffs should also have elastic bands. Price from 250 rubles.
- Pajamas. The most important thing when choosing is the material of the pajamas; only 100% cotton is suitable and not an ounce of synthetics. The set includes 2 items - pants and a shirt (jacket). You can choose clothes according to the season - light or insulated. Price from 400 rubles.

Gifts for outdoor games, recreation and physical development
This ten collection of ideas for fidgets and aspiring sports stars. If the boy himself is very active, and it is difficult to keep him in one place, then these gifts are definitely for him.
- Pear with gloves. And it’s even better if the kit includes a protective helmet. The pear can be hung in the yard or at home. In general, it’s time for the boy to learn to stand up for himself and develop his muscles. Cost from 700 rubles.
- Vinyl dumbbells. Lightweight, no more than 0.5 kg for each hand. They do not rattle, are quite safe and bright thanks to the vinyl shell. But the most important thing is that the child can do morning exercises with them, strengthening his body. Price from 150 rubles.
- Kite. It will be difficult for a child to understand the intricacies of flying a kite, but together with an adult this process will be fascinating. Buy a colorful kite with winged feathers and a long tail for your child. Cost from 100 rubles.
- Bike. By the age of five, the boy has already passed the age of a “three-wheeler”; he needs a children’s two-wheeler with thick tires and two small wheels at the back, which can be removed if desired. Price from 3500 rubles.
- Three-wheeled scooter. A wide platform and adjustable steering wheel height are important. When purchasing, pay attention to the lightness and maneuverability of the scooter. In general, this is a useful transport for a child to practice balance at speed. Price from 1000 rubles.
- Inflatable play complex. This is not a small “splash pool” for swimming, it’s a whole palace with two pools, a slide, a high arch, and also comes with game rings and balls. Cost from 2800 rubles.
- Balls for dry pool. In the pool you can swim and dive not only in the water, but also in multi-colored plastic balls. Their price depends on the quantity (from 50 to 100 pcs.) and diameter. A small set costs from 300 rubles.
- Ride n'Roll wheeled suitcase. It really functions as a suitcase - you can put children's things in it while traveling. But this is also a cool pusher for pushing a child while waiting for a flight or train. Cost from 2500 rubles.
- Inflatable raft. Buy a PVC “Sea Turtle” for your child so that he learns to swim. You can climb on top of the shell, lie on your stomach and, holding the handles, dangle your legs in the water. This toy is suitable for both the pool and the pond. Price from 500 rubles.
- Jumping grasshopper. This is a jumping machine, you just need to get the hang of jumping on it. If the birthday boy rides a bicycle or roller skates, then he can easily cope with the “grasshopper”, jumping higher and higher. Price from 1000 rubles.
- Children's slide. If the child lives in a country house, then the gift will be appropriate. The slide has a smooth, winding descent, and you can also put water on it for skating. The material is plastic, which is not afraid of temperature changes. Cost from 1500 rubles.
- Inflatable football goals. The big advantage of this gift is that it is very compact. The gate can be taken with you into nature, inflated and installed on a flat area. Their size - 213x122x137cm - is optimal for a baby goalkeeper. Price from 800 rubles.
- Playhouse or tent. If you lay it out at home, you can find another small room. But in nature, it is generally irreplaceable - you can play in it as a cave savage or a tourist, hiding from the sun and rain. The price is about 1000 rubles.
- Towns. A forgotten but cool game that is much more interesting than the well-known bowling alley. Wooden cylinders are placed in a special way to create a figure that must be knocked down with a bat. The game perfectly develops accuracy and eye. Price from 200 rubles.
- Frisbee. Even a child’s shaggy friend, his dog, can play with a plastic flying saucer. The boy will launch it - and the dog will catch it in the air. And just for street entertainment, such a gift will be very useful. Cost from 150 rubles.

The player who loses his balance or falls is eliminated. Victory remains with the most savvy and flexible.
