This post is brought to you by green apple solutions.

When financial times are tough, and you have not choice than to cut back on your budget, it doesn’t essentially mean that you must disappoint your kids on their birthdays or special occasions. There are many great toys that you can gift that won’t cost you a fortune.

1. Good Quality Coloring Pencils

When your child loves being creative, you can opt for some decent quality coloring pencils. Paint can be too expensive. Staedtler is one of the premium brands, but you can also settle for Crayola or Prismacolor.

2. Board Games

There are many expensive board games, but there are also numerous that aren’t. An enjoyable board game is a gift that can be enjoyed by your children, their friends, as well as the whole family over and over again.

3. Top Trumps

This toy is highly cost-effective but great fun for kids. You get a selection of Top Trumps card sets available to purchase. An excellent portable option for when you are traveling.

4. Action Figures And Dolls

Both action figures and dolls make lovely presents and are available in various sizes and price ranges. Most kids enjoy playing with these toys, and branded toys are enormous.

5. Crayola Finger Paint

Kids love the mess-free finger-paint by Crayola. With this toy, your children can have endless fun without making a mess. It’s a great gift idea for other families too. The paint is fast-drying, mess-free and can be removed with a sponge that is included in the kit.

6. Syma S107 Remote Controlled Helicopter

When it comes to budget toys, this remote control helicopter is a sure winner. It is designed for using indoors and has full down, up, forward, left, right, and backward controls, making it a super fun toy to fly around the home.

7. Building Blocks

Not only is this an excellent educational toy but lots of fun as well. There are so many building block sets available for purchase on the market, and you are bound to find many that are at affordable prices.

8. Puzzle Toys

The possibilities are endless. Think jigsaw puzzles, Rubik’s cubes, chess sets, and more. Toys like these keep children occupied for hours on end, are educational and comes with an affordable price tag.

9. Used Videogames

If your children already have a games console, think about buying second-hand games. They are sold at half of the price compared to new games and if you shop around you can find some of them in their packaging that still looks almost new.

10. Perler Beads

This has been a favorite that is around for ages. Kids can be creative and make things with Perler beads. Most sets include the beads as well as the pegboards.
