Top Hobby Toys for 2013

Isn’t it wonderful when your kids have hobbies that keep them busy, help them learn, and that they can be proud of? There are several options – and you might want to get something your child doesn’t even have an interest in – yet. 

For example, many kids today have never heard of whittling. But give them a bar of soap and a kit made for kids, and before you know it, they’re carving out ships with sails and watching them float!

One kit that’s popular this year is the Estes 1469 Tandem-X Launch Set. Would your child be amazed if they could launch a rocket? This rocket can blast off 600 feet into the air – and kids will be in awe of the plume of smoke it leaves behind as it rockets into the sky. 

If your child is a fan of the Star Wars movies, then you don’t have to stick to LEGO sets to help them build their favorite ships and scenes. You can get something like the Star Wars X-Wing Fighter Model Kit and let them assemble and then play. 

The 230-piece Erector Multi Model Construction Set lets your child create twenty different models using one complete set. Once assembled, they’re motorized, and kids ages 8 and up will really enjoy working with this kit. 

Hobbies aren’t just about building things. It also includes collecting. Is your child into cars? You might want to get them the Maisto R/C 1:24 1967 Ford Mustang they can add to their car collection – it’s one of the bestselling RC cars for collectors. 

Or, if they like trains, start with the Lionel Trains Polar Express Train Set that can go forward or backward and has realistic features like headlights and smoke puffing from the train. 

If your child is little, then you might want to let them collect Thomas the Train sets instead of the top of the line Lionel brand – but who knows? They may grow from one version into another as they age. 

You might also want to look into other hobbies that are great for kids to get started in. This might include knitting or crocheting, painting or even photography

There are all sorts of kits and accessories you can invest in to get your child started. Once you see that they’re interested in it for more than a day, you can decide if you want to spend more to help them grow their hobby into something long-term.
