These handmade toys are perfect for Christmas, Easter, Birthdays, and any holidays you like to give gifts. They are toys that kids will cherish forever.
As a kid, my dad made me a baby cradle. It has my name carved into it and is truly beautiful. It is so much better than the cheap plastic options most kids were getting at my age. It’s an heirloom-quality toy that will last for generations.
It’s one suggestion of how handmade gifts don’t have to be boring. These handmade toys are amazing and even better than store-bought toys! They are the kind of toys kids will cherish their whole life.
Handmade toys also don’t have to be the type that requires as much skill as a baby cradle to be amazing. You are sure to find a gift on this list that you can easily make and your child will love.
