No Clutter Children’s Gifts: Reader’s Edition

Here is a short list of great no clutter gift ideas that I LOVE for all ages for book lovers or those children you want to gently push into loving reading. (Here are some posts of our favorite toys and books and games.). All of these items have excellent multiple fantastic ratings and I can back that all up!

Personal Library Kit

Janey (9) loves this library kit (it was 1,700 5 star ratings!) and often plays with it by herself or with friends. I know kids don’t often see library cards today or the old-fashioned stamped system, but “checking out” is something I’ve found my younger ones have loved to do.

Here are a few cute book plates (stickers for the inside front cover) also:

Sticker Personalized Book Plates
Old Fashioned Sticker Book Plates
Stickers For Little Ones
For Children Who Won’t Stamp Everything In Site -A Personalized Self-Inking Stamper
A Sweet Reading Journal for Children

This notebook sized reading log can be used to keep track of books read for the year, and also has space for book analysis – like a quick mini book report on each page for each book read.

My All Time Favorite-A Wonderful Collection of Golden Books

For the younger child, there is nothing like good old-fashioned Golden Book stories-nothing weird, or no hidden messages, these are just good cute stories, with the sweetest illustrations.

This is a GORGEOUS storybook full of the classics.

A favorite classic story book with stories every child should know, and the artistic illustrations is beautiful.

Another beautifully illustrated book that brings the Bible stories to life.

This hardcover large Bible is a favorite, with wonderful illustrations and easy to read stories that are appropriate.

Collectors Set of Classic Books-Hardcover Little House

One of the favorite things I own and treated myself to. These books are gorgeous and I will keep them forever until I hand them down to grandchildren.

Collectors Set of Harry Potter

For the hardcore Harry Potter lover, a keepsake for sure.

Best Rechargeable Reading Light

I’ve mentioned these rechargeable lights before-completely bendable and also light weight (not like those heavy ones that bend the pages down) they are perfect for kids (but I love them also and someone keeps stealing mine!)

Softest Cuddly Blanket

I LOVE this blanket. It is SO soft and cuddly. It washes up nicely and stays soft. It comes in all colors and sizes (we have the white) and is great for kid’s beds or as a throw on a sofa or chair.

Kindle Paperwhite (2018 and more affordable than the brand new one but just as good)

Patrick (13) and I share a Kindle- I had my own but gave it to my oldest who uses it and needs it for all his travel. Since Patrick and I both like paper books too, this is perfect for us when we are have that one book that has 3,000 loans ahead of us at the library and we need to read it NOW.

Headphones

Great headphones for kids listening to Audible or borrowed audio books from my phone.

This is one of my favorite finds-kid’s LOVE these blank paperback books for writing and illustrating.

Great gel pens to go along with these books are here. We have gone through many of these and they are one of my favorite “I’m bored” activities. They can write their own stories, but also use them for lists, a make-your-own encyclopedia of dog breeds, sports, etc.

Personalized Library Bag (Different Designs Available)

These personalized totes for trips to the library are so cute and are also great for keeping all those borrowed books in one place, with kids taking ownership of “their” books.

    I look forward to your gift ideas every year! I was at Hobby Lobby and saw gel pens and remembered the days my kids couldn’t get enough! I’m thinking the gel pens and paperbacks may be great for my neighbor. That library set is too cute. Maybe I’ll get it for my 28 year old! I do love the personal book embosser she bought me last year.

    Hi Sarah! I’m looking forward to your holiday lists (like I do every year!). I have many of the items you suggested, but that rechargeable book light was a game changer! It saves so many batteries and after a year shows no wear! My daughter loves it, thank you!

    My kids each had the big heavy metal embosser “From the library of:”, and loved it so much. My son got into a little trouble for embossing all his 4th grade parochial school textbooks. He’s 43 yo now and still uses it!
    Thanks for this list, you’re always helpful for youngsters of all ages. I do hope and pray your daughter is recovering.
