The 17 Best Gifts For 7-Year-Olds, According to 5-Star Reviews

Crazy Forts ($36)

Who wouldn't have fun creating their very own fort? Treat them to this fort-building set, and watch as they create their own private getaway. Heck, you might even enjoy building it with them, too. The set comes with 44 sticks and 25 balls that are meant to be covered with tarps and sheets. And the best part? It's not weather-dependent. They can use this kit rain or shine, inside or outside.

What reviewers say: "Got this as a gift for my 6 year old. He plays with it everyday. It took him a few times to understand how the balls work and to follow the directions. But now he builds his own inventions and loves playing in all his forts. We bought another set the following Christmas to build bigger forts and it is still one of his favorite things to play with."
