              can be the easiest to shop for--they are wide-eyed and
              enthusiastic about almost any new toy they unwrap. But if parents
              want that initial excitement to last beyond Christmas morning, it
              is wise to shop around. Here are our top
              ten picks (and more) of gifts for preschoolers.

                    For Kids Ages 5-8 Children in early elementary grades are learning all sorts of new
              skills--they are starting to take off in reading, learning new
              math skills, discovering their world in new ways, and refining
              their skills in art. Plenty of products are available that are fun
              enough to give as gifts, yet still manage to encourage budding
              academic skills. These are our top ten gifts for children of this
              age group.
