Kids Gift Hampers for Christmas and Birthdays: Choose a Gift They Can Enjoy Making

Looking for kids gift hampers for Christmas, a birthday or another special occasion? A hamper filled with hands-on activities gives children something exciting to unwrap and something fun to make, build or explore afterwards.

At Built By Kidz Activities, our kids gift hampers include different themes and activities, from building and science to painting, craft and gardening. Here are a few ideas to help you choose a hamper that suits the child you’re buying for.

Choose kids gift hampers to match their interests

The best gift is often one that feels chosen just for them. Think about the activities the child already enjoys:

For builders and makers: A Kids Building Experience Hamper

Includes a choice of a Tool Box, Slide Box or Trinket Box woodwork project, plus a KidzRobotix Money Bank Robot and two packs of Funday Natural Sweets sugar-free lollies.

For curious experimenters: The Science + Build Hamper

Combines a woodwork project with a Neon Slime activity.

For children who like a bit of discovery: The Build + Mining Hamper

Pairs a woodwork project with a crystal mining kit.

For creative or green-thumbed kids: Browse the full range of kids’ hampers

To see painting, craft and gardening options too.

Hampers and their contents vary, so check each product page for the current details, options and supervision requirements.

A Christmas hamper to enjoy over the holidays

A kids Christmas hamper can be a lovely way to give more than a toy that gets put aside after the wrapping paper is cleared. Choose an activity that suits the child and they can enjoy making or exploring it during the school holidays, with an adult helping where required.

If you’re sending a gift, some hamper product pages also offer the option to add a personalised message card. Check the individual listing for details.

A birthday gift that keeps the fun going

A birthday hamper for kids can make gift choosing easier when you’re not sure what they already have. Pick a theme that reflects their interests, whether that’s building, science, painting, craft or gardening. A hands-on activity gives them a new project to enjoy after the birthday celebrations.

Make your next kids’ gift one to remember

Whether you’re shopping for Christmas, a birthday or a little surprise, an activity hamper is a thoughtful way to give a child something to do as well as something to unwrap.
