*This post is in partnership with Walmart, however, all thoughts and opinions about the best gifts for 5-8 year-olds this year are 100% our own.
There is nothing better than the look on a child’s face when they open the perfect gift on Christmas and who better to tell you what to give the special child in your life than another child. Which is why I gave Livvy the ultimate job this holiday season- Toy Tester!!
We picked up some of the most talked-about holiday toys from Walmart and she narrowed down the list to her Top 6 Holiday Picks. These gifts can all be found at Walmart and Walmart.com at the everyday low prices you’ve come to expect making your holiday shopping a breeze this year.
Speaking of your shopping being a breeze have you tried Walmart’s FREE Online Store Pickup service? It’s super convenient!
You simply place your order online by adding the item to your cart and then at check out it gives you the option for delivery or Free Pickup in the store. You enter your address to see if a store near you has the product available and if it does you can choose that option.
Your product will be ready for pickup the next day and you will receive an email when it is ready. You take that email into the Online Pickup area located inside the store and voila! You can pick up your item. It saves me SO much time!
Livvy’s Top 6 Walmart Holiday Picks {perfect for 5-8 year old’s}
- furREAL Mama Josie the Kangaroo Interactive Pet Toy This super sweet mama Kangaroo comes with three babies a boy, a girl, and one surprise! Each kangaroo baby comes with its own tiny accessory. Plus, there is a smoothie accessory for mama too. Livvy loved opening up the babies to see what their surprises were and then placing the babies in Mama Josie’s pouch or in her hand. She has a special spot on her hand that allows her to hold her babies or her smoothie. Mama Josie responds to touch and has over 70 sound and motion combinations that keep little ones entertained for a good period of time.
- Little Live Pets Gotta Go Flamingo Kids love potty-themed toys, at least mine always have. This is why I think this Gotta Go Flamingo is at the top of many kids’ holiday wish lists this year. I have to admit it is pretty cute. The Flamingo talks, wiggles, sings, eats, and poops! Yup! He really does, magical colorful poop to be exact-ha! Kids will love that the poop can be scooped back up in the scoop and dries back into food so they can start the process all over again. Trust me, it sounds weird but this toy is going to be a HIT this holiday season. Liv absolutely LOVES it!!
- Easy-Bake Ultimate Oven Baking Star Edition I swear I didn’t make her choose this one, but I can’t say I wasn’t thrilled about her choice. Did you have an Easy-Bake Oven as a child? I sure did, and I LOVED it!! Well, Liv’s pick has gotten a major upgrade it can bake both sweet & savory creations and comes in a super fun glittery design. *Note this edition is a Walmart Exclusive!!
If you purchase this toy as a gift we also suggest the following accessories!!
- Fisher-Price Tic Tac Tony This fun game is rated for ages 3+ but Liv absolutely adores it and I love the simplicity of it. Instead of placing your disks into the holes in his back, you use his tail to flip them in adding a fun twist to the classic tic tac toe game we’ve all grown up loving. This is a great toy for under $10!
- Disney Frozen 2 Magic In Motion Queen Elsa Doll Liv was OBSESSED with Frozen 2 when it came out and one of her favorite moments in the film was when Queen Elsa sang “Show Yourself” so it was no surprise to me when this adorable doll caught her attention since she sings that exact song. The doll’s head and mouth actually move in synchronization with the music. It’s pretty neat! She also displays a light show displays on her dress as she sings. Any Frozen 2 fan will LOVE this pick!
- Jetson Mars 2-Wheel Folding Kids Kick Scooter with LED Light-Up Stem, Deck, and Wheels Liv loves the light-up features on this fun kick scooter. It’s also lightweight and folds easily allowing her to carry it all on her own. It is rated for ages 5+ and thanks to the easy-to-adjust handlebar it will grow with your child. If you choose this product Livvy also recommends this adorable helmet.
