If you want to find the perfect toy for a child of any age, the Lego building set is on the top of list. First of all, for any child who likes to create things, you simply cannot have too many Lego sets. With themes and trademarked editions mixing in with the regular sets, a child can spend countless hours constructing and demolishing only to re-design and construct again. Most of us remember how awesome Lego sets were from our own childhood. The magic is still just as strong today as ever.

Most of us remember how awesome Lego sets were from our own childhood. The magic is still just as strong today as ever.
What makes the Lego building set such a fantastic toy is that it knows no limitations. It challenges the mind, entices creativity, and offers the child a way to develop any kind of world he or she wants to live in for that day. It's a great tool for learning spatial relationships as well as a tool for understanding basic architecture.
A child can learn a lot with his or her time spent with a Lego building set. It creates a way to develop critical thinking skills as well as fostering imaginative creativity. You can start with a basic set or one of the themed sets. By putting together different models your child taps into his or her own natural abilities to learn by exploring and doing.
The development of manual dexterity, simple math concepts, and color schemes can help even very young children find new explorations awaiting them in their Lego box. Very young children can use the larger Lego blocks that remove the choking hazard while older children can create masterpieces down to the most finite detail with the regular Lego set.
Rainy day boredom does not need to plague even the most active child with a Lego building set. While other kids are zoned out in front of the TV on a rainy day, your child can be creating whole new worlds with fantastic inhabitants or building skyscrapers for their giant stuffed lizard to destroy.
This is one toy that has no right or wrong way to play with it. In a world filled with pre-set rules, children love to find activities that has no judgment attached to it use. You can't build the wrong thing and you can't use the wrong colored Lego bricks. Whatever your child builds in his or her own manner is right, because it is their creative vision.
The more your kids play with their Lego sets the more they start to develop a strong sense of personal independent thought. When they try something and it doesn't work out so well, they have the ability to change it up, try again, or decide that their mistake is the next great invention. With a good imagination a child can put together just about anything with a basic Lego building set and move on to greater challenges with one of the themed sets like Star Wars.
If lego is not for you or your children then how about a Robotic dinosaur as a christmas present ? Kids love Dinosaurs so this might be a winning idea. Otherwise, what about a Clone trooper helmet with voice changing capability ? Anyone, young or old, who likes Star Wars will like to role play as a clone trooper in a clone war on some far flung planet.
