For the past few years I always wait till last minute to get Eid gifts. This year I really wanted to shop ahead of time that way I could be more thoughtful of my gifts and focus during Ramadan! That way in Ramadan I’ll only have to wrap them. Below I have found some easy and affordable gifts for Eid for kids. I have most of these items either for my children or have bought them for others. For Eid, I try to get more gifts that are Islamic as they have their birthdays and other occasions for regular toys and gifts. Most of these are for children up to 6. Many of these websites also have other gifts for older children too! Hope you find something that you like. Since this year we’ll be inside more often, I included some gifts that will be useful for us.

Books

  1. ALIF to Ya Soft Baby Book: I love this one! Wish I had this for my babies.

  2. Migo and Ali and any Zaneb Mian books. Some of my other favorites are Mindful Book of Wellbeing, Hadith for Kids, Duas for Kids, My Dad’s Beard, and How to Pray. She is an amazing author and just what this generation needs. She had a way with words making it easy for kids to understand and enjoy at the same time.

  35. A Bike! I recently got Safa a balance bike and I HIGHlY recommend it.The idea age is to start around age 2 but you still can start around 3-4. Just make sure the height of the bike will be appropriate. When they are 4-5 you can put them on a two wheeler and they’ll be flying in hours to days! I got this one, but the most popular brand is Strider.

  36. A Water/Sand Table: Since we’ll be stuck mostly at home, this is the perfect gift. Small enough for your balcony, backyard or front patio. This will be definitely useful this summer.

  37. Outdoor Activity Book: I love this book! We’ve used a few times but it has endless ideas and fun for the summer.

  38. Bath Art: Yes, this is a thing. Great way to spend some more time in the bath and easy clean up too.

  39. Climb and Crawl Foam Set: If you have the space, this would be a great item to have for your baby or toddler. They’re so many ways they can play with it too.

  40. Your Kids Choice! Lastly, is there something they’ve been asking for a while? Then Eid is the perfect time to get it. For Safa she’s been asking for a scooter so that will definitely be one of her gifts.
