Surprise Holiday Gifts For Geeky Kids - Buying Best RC Toys For Kids

Updated on April 8, 2012

Holiday season is approaching near and buying gifts for kids is inevitable. Whether it is Halloween, Christmas, or New Year, your kids will love you if you will gift them a unique present this season. For this, you need to twist your mind a bit and get prepared with some surprise holiday gift ideas, which I will provide you in this article and also in my upcoming ones. If your kids are tech geeks, which mostly are nowadays, then according to me gifting latest RC toys available in the market is the best option for you.

RC toys are available anywhere in the range of 15 to 500 dollars. Buying your kid an RC helicopter, a remote control plane, or an RC boat online or from a local RC shop will not only make them happy, but they will praise you for your special holiday gift. Who does not want to be praised by kids? At least I want it. Also, these unique remote control toys will help you keep them engaged throughout the holiday season, which will give you ample time to do your discount holiday shopping.

When it comes to selecting an RC toy, we have to adapt to the tastes and ages of our kids. Most geek boys I have seen like an RC tank or an RC chopper. Girls like an RC boat or an RC Fairyfly and there are other adventurous kids who are interested in RC drift cars and gliders for more fun, adventure, and excitement.

Age is also an important factor for determining a gift for your kids but that does not mean you cannot gift an RC toy to your younger one. Of course, you cannot buy an outdoor RC plane for a 7-year-old kid due to safety concerns but you can buy an indoor RC plane for him. Also, indoor RC planes are most suited for kids who are not being supervised by an adult. For kids who are 10 years or older, you can buy any outdoor RC toy. The whole idea is to choose a gift according to the taste, preference, and age of your kids.

You can buy RC helis for kids who are age 14 and older. With maximum number of shopping portals like Ebay and Amazon selling RC toys, buying a 2-channel remote control helicopter online with an operating range of up to 40 meters and surprising speed is not a tough job. Moreover, these RC toy helis are made up of high strength plastic and are really endurable and stable during flight. For your information, some helis come with 8 AA rechargeable batteries that are not included in the package and are recommend for kids who already have some degree of experience of flying RC helis as they are very delicate. If your kid is an inexperienced one, then you can buy extra RC heli blades so if one gets broken during an unfortunate landing crash, your kid has another.

Top RC Toy Gift Ideas for 2010

When your kids will play with their favorite RC toys, which will go forward, left, and right in the air and on the ground, they will feel really happy and excited. What else a parent needs from a kid, except seeing them happy, joyful, and enjoying their best of the best times when they are under the care of their parents. So according to me, an RC toy is the best surprise holiday gift for your geek child which will not only enhance creativity, maneuverability, and thought process, but will also make your kid active and healthy running after the flying plane or glider with all the controls in his hand.
