10 (Non-Cheesy) Christian Christmas Gifts for Kids

 

Little People Nativity

1. Little People A Christmas Story Nativity Set

 

Do your kids love the Little People play sets as much as mine do? They’re classic, durable, great for imaginative play, slobber-proof and lots of fun! Plus, the Little People Nativity set is a great way for little ones to learn more about Jesus’s birth in a way they can understand (while keeping your grown-up nativity set in good condition!) 

This is definitely one of my absolute favorite Christmas Christmas gift ideas for kids — our kids love it!

The Shepherd on the Search

 

2. The Shepherd on the Search

 

How about a fun family activity to help celebrate Advent? Similar to the Elf on the Shelf, but with a more decidedly Christian message, The Shepherd on the Search is a great option. It comes With a cute plush shepherd, a beautiful storybook, a message that’s focused squarely on Jesus, and a lot of fun!

You can grab The Shepherd on the Search on Amazon here.

4. Veggie Tales Movies

 

I’ve been a big fan of Veggie Tales for years – way before I even had kids of my own – but now that I see some of the other alternatives available in kids’ cartoons, I love and appreciate them that much more.

Veggie Tales are perfect for teaching kids Bible stories, important life lessons and morals/values — all while remaining fun and upbeat, not boring or preachy! They’re really funny, and good for little kids and adults alike.

7. Christian Christmas Children’s Books

 

Growing up, we had a tradition where we read the Christmas story from the Bible every year before opening presents. I loved it and looked forward to it every year.

I don’t want to save the story until Christmas morning, though. Buy these as Christian Christmas gifts for your kids to enjoy Christmas morning, or buy them early and enjoy them all season long!

9. Precious Moments Prayer Pals

 

My middle son has one of these he received as a gift when he was a baby and it “sleeps” in his bed every night. They’re super sweet and snuggly, and when you press their bellies, they recite a prayer (“Now I lay me down to sleep”). These are a great choice for little ones.

  1. I absolutely love your ideas! I was thinking of many ways I could connect God to my children and these would be great for them. I want them to grow up loving him in all ways as I have when I was growing up. The Christian Christmas books look wonderful. I’ll be sure to look them up once I start shopping for Christmas gifts. Thanks for the great tips!

  2. These gifts are for younger children. I need gift ideas for 10-12 yr. olds. Any suggestions?

    1. The Jonathan Park Audio Adventures would be perfect for that age range, as well as Clubhouse magazine or a fun Bible-themed board game! 🙂

  3. THANK YOU! Great ideas I will incorporate a few of these in my children’s church group
