Collection: Best Gifts for Ages 5–7

What actually works as a gift at this age

At 5–7, kids are reading on their own, holding onto a game's full rule set, and starting to want a real challenge rather than a quick win. We've picked 12 real bestsellers from across our full range — active play, board games & brainteasers, books, building toys, DIY & craft, puzzles and pretend play — so there's something here whatever your budget.
