Whether it's for the holidays or a birthday, Ravensburger has an incredibly extensive range. No idea what to buy for your son, daughter, niece or maybe your teenage cousin? These are the best gift tips from Ravensburger for young and old
Almost everyone knows Ravensburger from the fun games, puzzles and more. But did you know that it was originally a publishing house? Ravensburger publishing house was founded in 1983 in the German town of Ravensburg by Otto Maier. Soon the game "Around the World in 80 Days" was released. This turned out to be a bull's eye, because the demand for games quickly increased.
In 1925, the games were modernized by Otto's sons, who had since taken over the company. In the 1950s and 1960s, the range was expanded with puzzles and hobby bags. In 2021, Ravensburger has become an indispensable part of the world of games, puzzles and hobby packages.
Just a little while and Sinterklaas will be back in the country to be followed shortly after by Christmas. The holidays are pre-eminently the days when people spoil each other with presents. The same goes for a birthday. Of course, on that day only the birthday boy or girl will be spoiled with nice presents. Finding the right gift can be quite difficult. Because what do you actually buy for your 7-year-old daughter who loves to draw? Or your nephew who loves cars? And which game is fun for the whole family?
Fortunately, Ravensburger has an extensive range with something for everyone.
Ravensburger has very nice games and puzzles for the youngest in the range. How about a memory game to train the memory and recognition of pictures? Or surprise the child with a funny game like Snail's Race and Bunny Hop. Creative children have also been thought of. The different versions of Aqua Doodle are great fun for children up to 6 years old.
The older children get, the bigger their world becomes. This offers many possibilities in terms of finding a suitable gift. When choosing, make sure that you take into account the interests of the child. Is the child creative? Then look for fun hobby articles. Does your child prefer to play games with friends? Or do you like to sit together as a family to play games? Then the board games are a must. Or does your child like to make things? Then take a look at the various fun 3D puzzles.
Recommendations for creative children aged 6 – 11 years include:
When it comes to games, there is a very large choice. You can choose concentration games, learning games, card games, strategy games and much more. The enchanted Doolhoof is and remains an incredibly popular game. This game is all about tactics. How fast do you get to your goal? In the meantime, the classic version is no longer the only one you can buy. For example, choose 3D Maze or the Mario version of this well-known game. A glow in the dark and Frozen version are also available.
Puzzles are very good for the development of your child. It supports motor and cognitive skills and also ensures that your child develops emotional skills. Unfortunately, not all children like puzzles. Fortunately, Ravensburger also has very cool 3D puzzles in addition to the classic puzzles. You can use this to make a cool sneaker, a Porsche or a famous building. This is the perfect gift idea for kids aged 6-11! Because let's face it, isn't such a 3D puzzle really cool to make?
Teenagers can be quite tricky, especially when it comes to finding the right gift. A lot of things are not cool or cool enough (don't let your teenager hear these words, because this is so outdated!) and don't fit with the life of teenagers. After all, life mainly takes place online.
Nevertheless, it is good to tear your child away from the screen, especially during the holidays, to do something together, for example. They probably won't admit it quickly, but many teenagers also enjoy playing games with each other. And if they don't want to play with you (because hey, you are and will always be the parent), they can also play the games with friends.
Exciting Ravensburger games for teens include:
Not only games are interesting as gifts for teenagers. You can also surprise your teenager with a puzzle, whether or not performed in 3D. Or give the teenager in question something to be creative with. In a fast-paced world, it is good to take a step back every now and then and fill the afternoon or evening with something creative. Think of activities such as painting by numbers (available in many designs).
If you think that play is only for children, you are wrong. Here you will find an article about how and why play is and remains important for adults. Leave the daily worries behind and enjoy an evening with family or friends during a game night. Real contact and not through social media, which is actually not social at all.
The games that are suitable for teenagers are of course also great fun for adults. In addition, it is also fun to play regular board games, it is not for nothing that many games indicate age 8 – 99 years. For example, give the game Back to the Future as a gift. Or choose Koehandel, Jurassic Park:Danger or Barricade classic.
Painting by numbers is a timeless hobby, not only suitable for children, but also fun for adults. Are you looking for a creative gift for an adult? Then this is definitely a possibility.
