Gifts that spark imagination, inspiration
What parent doesn’t want to give their child gifts they will love? While digital screens and video games may be at the top of your child’s list this season, there are other great gift ideas when you think outside the box. Instead of following the latest tech trend, give gifts that empower your kids, grow their brain, teach responsibility and shape their character.
ART
Children are explorers, and art provides a world where they can color outside the lines and discover new ideas, create their own world, see that problems have more than one solution, and allow their imagination to flourish.
Gift ideas: art supplies, clay, sketch pads, stickers, Tinker Crate, and craft kits.
MUSIC Music makes everything more fun, including cleaning your room and shooting hoops in the driveway. It is soothing for the soul and awesome for those neuronal connections. Play it often in your home and make music a part of your child’s — and your —daily routine.
Gift ideas: instrument, music lessons, CDs, portable speaker, and headphones.

A Cool Girl's Bedroom
WHEN DESIGNER JACY PAINTER KELLY, owner of Jacy Painter Kelly Interiors, took her family to New York City last summer, her 10-year-old daughter Lucy went crazy for the cool urban vibe of their downtown hotel room. It gave Lucy the itch to makeover her own bedroom in their Fort Mill home. She wanted more mature accents like silver wall sconces and velvet pillows, paired with punk rock elements like a graffiti-inspired bed frame and pink neon sign. Luckily her designer mom knew exactly how to tie it all together.
