The Best Toys for 7-Year-Olds

Seven-year-olds are amazing. They’re honing their fine motor skills, picking up new words every day, and looking for ways to show off their creativity. Open-ended toys, books, and craft supplies will help 7-year-olds explore their imagination while learning about the world around them. Post-Kindergarten, these kids have leveled up and may be ready for toys and games that present a bit of a challenge and an opportunity to build resiliency.
Looking for great gifts for other ages? Check out our best toys lists for one-year-olds, two-year-olds, three-year-olds, four-year-olds, five-year-olds, six-year-olds, eight-year-olds, and nine-year-olds!
