Games & Puzzles Gift Ideas

24 ideas from the games & puzzles area of The Playroom. Nothing is sold here — pick anything up and it opens a pre-filled search at the retailer.

Start with the age on the box, then think about who will play. A board game or card game is a gift for the whole family, so it fits a child with siblings or grandparents nearby. A jigsaw puzzle is for quiet time alone: choose the piece count by age. A marble run rewards building and rebuilding. The circuit science kit is for a curious older child. Kids' walkie-talkies need a partner, so they work for two siblings or two close friends.
