Fun with dots: “Press Here” by Hervé Tullet

allow a child to be imaginative and creative,” says Jennic law, owner of KangarooBoo toy store,West des Moines, iowa.

“The child is playing and having a good time, but the toy is doing most of the actions or thinking for him or her.” law says classic problem-solving toys like puzzles and blocks are much

Top Picks ofToy Store Gurus Spot It by Blue Orange ($11, age 6 and up)

Kids can spot matching images on the play cards with up to 7 others or have fun on their own. “There are five different ways to play the game, so it has great value.”

- Jim Davis, Kid’s Center

better for children. She likes boldly col colored Green Toys Blocks ($25, 6 months and up), which are made from recycled plastic milk containers and come in many shapes.

Wendy lippman,owner of TlaquepaqueToyTown in Sedona,ariz., seeks out toys that spur open-ended play. ““i like toys where kids are encouraged to use their imagination,”she says.lippman recommends toys that can serve as the focus for role-playing,where kids can act as cashiers or shoppers with a toy cash register,for example.Such toys also set up scenarios to educate children,she says.

Science-related toys are no longer aimed at little leonardos and can be packed with fun, says Jim davis, owner of Kid’s Center toy store in Tucson,ariz.

Toys with magnets easily combine science learning with fun.The popular discovery Set of magnetic blocks from Tegu ($70, age 3 and up) snap together and hang in balance, a perfect gift to spark the imagination of young children.

Science kits fromThames & Kosmos

Tackling life’s little challenges: Remote-control machines by Thames & Kosmos

Holiday GifT Guide | 2011 are perennial award-winners.The RemoteControl Machines set ($70,age 8 and up) lets kids build 10 different motorized vehicles (including bulldozer,crane,formula one racer,three-blade dozer,robotic arm) and then guide them with a remote control unit.after following the instructions to construct the standard vehicles,kids can invent their own.

Try re-imagining books as toys.“There’s a jillion different topics for books,”davis says.“you just need to know a little bit about the child and then pick out the appropriate story book.”“Press Here”is the title and also the instruction for the new book by HervéTullet that launches young readers on a charming adventure.Watch them blow,tilt,shake,rub and tap colorful dots printed on the page to make them multiply,grow and rearrange themselves (Chronicle,$15, ages 4-8).

KangarooBoo’s law advises avoiding electronic educational and leisure toys for age 5 and under.“if [children] are able to sit down and solve a problem or a puzzle or build something, it makes the foundation for them as a person,”

she says. She also says toys that involve physical play help children develop fine motor skills, gross motor skills, patience and other mental capacities. fastrack, a new board game by Blue orange, pits opponents who twang elastic cords to send wooden disks shooting across the board and through a narrow slot.The first to get all 10 to the other side wins ($20, age 5 and up).

To get kids up off the couch and develop their physical well-being, davis suggests new classic toys for outdoors, such as jump ropes and sports balls, and new throw toys, including Rhino Toys’ Skyo, a flexible flying ring that’s easy to catch and throw ($8, age 3 and up).The Z-Curve Bow from Zing Toys launches foam arrows a satisfyingly long way ($20, age 8 and up).

Whatever route you take to finding the best toy for a special boy or girl, davis says, stop, think and proceed with inspiration.“you really need to know the child and try to engage the child in the purchase you make.”

By Nola SarkiSiaN-Miller CTW Features Gold may be hovering at stratospheric levels and the economy is still seesawing, but that’s not stopping well-heeled shoppers from indulging their jewelry habits. Retailers and designers say they’ve noticed an uptick in interest and sales for baubles, which bodes well for the holiday season. “there’s a demand for statement pieces, whether it’s an oversized cocktail ring or a dramatic cuff bracelet,” says los angeles jewelry designer, C.C.
