What will your kids get for Christmas this year? Consider some educational gifts that are (dare I say it) quite fun.

I love how Sonlight Consultant Jill encourages parents to give tools, not toys. As she says, tools encourage imagination, development and productive activity. Toys tend to simply entertain. I’ve compiled a short list of inspiring gifts (mainly “tools”) to consider for your children, nieces, nephews, neighbors and friends.

Many of these gifts are discounted now in our special Christmas sale; but for any gift, just click the sonlight.com beside the picture to learn more and order.

God bless you and your family in this season,

Tim HeilCustomer Relations ManagerSonlight Curriculum, Ltd.
