Tips for mid-year gifts that make sense

A report card as a starting line

A midterm report card is not a goal. It's a small checkpoint on a long route where effort, perseverance and the willingness to try new things count. Some people get A's, others get experience. And that's exactly why everyone deserves consideration. A report card gift doesn't have to be big or "for performance". It just needs to support what kids enjoy, what they feel strong in, or a path they have yet to take. We've put together a selection of the three worlds in which children most often find themselves.

For future scientists: curiosity as a superpower

"Why?" is the question that moves the world forward. Children who like to explore, compose, test and discover don't need ready-made answers. They need space to experiment. Games and tools that develop logical thinking, patience and curiosity are the perfect report card gift. They subtly teach without appearing to teach. And they often entertain not only children but also adults who join in "just for a moment". Gifts that stimulate both thinking and imagination will give them the greatest pleasure.

• A children's projector with the theme of the underwater world - a magical gift that awakens curiosity and imagination. The projected sea depths, fish and corals turn a child's room into a little discovery centre and inspire questions about the world beneath the surface.
• The Legamicalculator - apractical helper for school and for counting at home. Helps children work with numbers, check results and build confidence in maths.
• Legami eraser pen - ideal for those who like to try, correct and find the right solution. It allows you to write without fear of making mistakes and teaches that mistakes are a natural part of learning.

For artists: space for their own world

Some children prefer to create in silence, others work with the world around them through sound, colour or shapes. A gift that encourages them to express themselves in their own way is just the right thing for them.

• Kidywolf headphones - the ideal choice for little sound artists, music enthusiasts or children who like to create in their own world. They help them to focus, take in details and give space to their imagination, whether it's music, podcasts or their own recordings.
• Tiger Tribe modelling - an ageless classic that develops creativity and fine motor skills. Kids can shape, build, and rebuild. No rules, no right outcome, but the joy of creating.
• The Studio Roof paper building set - a design gift that combines creation and aesthetics. Animals, plants or other fantastic shapes made of paper will become an original decoration not only for the children's room.

For the athlete: a gift to get everyone moving

Athletes love movement and great gifts for them are those that make it a game. If your child runs, jumps, rides or just likes to compete with friends, we've got three tips that look great and are fun at the same time.

• Hyper bouncy ball - perfect for outdoor frolicking and backyard fun. Bouncing develops balance and co-ordination and can quickly become the whole party's favourite pastime.

• Rubber bouncer in a football design - a small but themed gift that will delight any little athlete. It looks like a football, so it fits perfectly in a pencil case, while unobtrusively linking school duties to what kids enjoy most. Ideal as a nice treat for effort during half term.

• Peloton card game - for young and old cycling fans alike. This themed game brings racing excitement right to the table and is a great choice for family time together and competitive afternoons with friends.
