Travel Gifts for Kids

The travel gifts for kids below will give any child with ways to better enjoy the experience of traveling, whether near or far.

The Children's Personalized Travel Map. This is the map of the United States that allows children to mark the places where they've traveled, where relatives and friends live, and their favorite place. The map includes removable stickers with phrases such as "I was here," "Grandpa/Grandma lives here," and "My Favorite Place!" in four colors so four different children may choose a color for their places. The map allows notations with dry-erase markers. Showing the 48 contiguous states with insets for Hawaii and Alaska, key resources and landmarks of states (e.g. a Georgia peach and the Statue of Liberty for New York) are noted with color pictures, in addition to state capitals marked in bold. The laminated map is backed with hardboard, and framed in durable red-painted aluminum; hangs from two built-in mounting plates. 26" W x 18" H x 1" D. (1 lb.)

The Simple Digital Camera. Unlike the miniscule controls and complicated menu arrays on typical digital cameras, this model's four beefy 3/8"-high buttons and simplified menus make for refreshingly straightforward operation. The camera has a 2.4" TFT color display, 8X digital zoom, and anti-shake function that enable effortless composing of shots. Its 5 MP sensor captures images at 2560 x 1920 resolution or 640 x 480 AVI video at 30 fps. Supports an SD card up to 8 GB (sold separately below) and images can be uploaded to a computer via USB. For Windows 7, Vista, XP, and Mac. Requires two AA batteries. 2 1/2"H x 4" W x 1 1/4" D. (3 1/4 oz.)

The Best Children's Digital Camera. Scoring highest in every category during tests conducted by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute, this children's digital camera earned The Best rating. A panel of grade school teachers, parents, and children evaluated the camera and noted that it was easiest to use because its instructions were clearly written, its buttons were easy to identify, and its grip was "great for small hands." The panel found it to provide the best image quality on its 1 1/2" color LCD, on a computer screen, and when printed. The camera also won The Best rating for durability, surviving five consecutive drops from 5'. Its built-in 256MB memory stores up to 500 photos at 2MP resolution and records up to eight minutes of video; supports up to 16 GB SD card (not included). The camera includes AV cables for plugging into a television to view photographs or movies. Included software works with Windows 7, Vista, and XP and Mac, and allows children to modify pictures with whimsical frames, stamps, facial expressions, and kaleidoscopic effects. Requires four AA batteries. Ages 3-9. 2" D x 6" W x 3 1/2" H. (1 1/4 lbs.)
