131. Best GIFTS for Strong-Willed Kids (unconventional, practical and long-lasting ideas that are still fun to open!)

Danielle Bettmann | Parenting Coach for Strong-Willed Kids

No matter the occasion, when buying a gift for the kid(s) in your life, you want to WOW them without breaking the bank or seeing your investments lying in the "toy graveyard" 2 months from now, taking up space or making a mess, never to be played with again.  
I GOT YOU!

I've compiled a huge list of mostly unconventional items your strong-willed child will lose their mind for
, and continue playing with for months or years to come!  They're not super expensive, they're not super messy, they're not annoying, and they still retain the "fun to watch them open" factor!

The overall GOAL for gifts for strong-willed kids is that the gifts create a feeling of being BIG/grown up, getting to be the boss, feeling important or in control through play.

Remember, if we don't proactively give them outlets to get this very real need met, we leave it up to them and they'll find a way, it just won't be mutually beneficial.
