November 21, 2019 By Lisa Mullen 2 Comments

I have another gift guide for you — this time with gifts for kids who love construction! If your kid loves all things construction — flashy vehicles, mighty machines, and powerful tools, this is the guide for you!

My middle child, Andrew, is a BIG fan of construction machines. Trucks, tractors, diggers… if it has a motor and lots of power, he’s into it!

Does this sound familiar to any of you??

I’m sure many of you can relate, so I’ve put together a list of gifts for kids who love construction — including several that aren’t trucks! (Because you can only handle so many construction vehicles around the house, am I right??)



Take a peek through the list, and if you have any great ideas to add, share them in the comments below!

Gifts for Kids Who Love Construction

Got any construction-loving kids on your Christmas list? Here is a wide variety of great gifts for kids who love construction (including several that aren’t trucks and several non-toy gift ideas!)

Find ALL my Merry Momma gift guides here!


Toy Construction Vehicles

Any kid who is crazy for construction will love the chance to build his/her own imaginary projects with a toy excavator, bulldozer, and dump truck.

 

Construction Vehicle Pull-Back Toy Cars

Pull-back toy cars are so fun for little builders! Here’s a great set of mini construction vehicles.

Remote Control Construction Vehicles

These vehicles can go forward and backward, turn left and right, and rotate 360 degrees and have a simulated shovel, hydraulic arm, and realistic cab and tracks

 

Ride On Caterpillar 

This one has an excavator arm with a working scoop shovel, a toy hard hat, and two pretend rocks!

And here’s one that’s battery-powered!

 

Construction Clothing

Andrew loved his “See you later, excavator” shirt!

Kinetic Sand

Andrew likes to use his construction toys in his kinetic sand, and here’s a “Dig & Demolish” play set

Construction-Themed Dinnerware

Get a placemat, too! Here’s a set with plate, fork & spoon, and placemat.

Construction-Themed Books 

Here are some of our favorites:

  • Goodnight, Goodnight Construction Site
  • Mighty, Mighty Construction Site
  • Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night?
  • Bulldozer’s Big Day
  • Peek-a-Flap Dig!

 

Toy Hard Hat

Every junior construction worker needs his/her own hard hat!

Costume Play Set

Your kids will love dressing up as their construction worker heroes with this costume play set

 

LEGOs

LEGOs are a classic and for good reason! 

Backpack — Backpacks are one of my favorite non-toy gift ideas because they’re practical as well as fun.

Toy Tool Belt —

A toy tool belt would be a great addition to the construction costume play set.

Stickers & Temporary Tattoos

These would make great stocking stuffers!

Construction Vehicle Puzzle

Melissa & Doug is hands-down our favorite source for quality puzzles, and they have several construction-themed options. Here’s an easy-grab peg puzzle for the earliest puzzlers.

 

Construction Game

Games are another excellent non-toy gift idea, and even your little construction-lovers could play this memory game.

Bedding

Our kids were so excited when they got to pick out the bedding for their “big boy” beds. These would be such fun sets!

Carpet Play Mat Rug

My boys LOVE their carpet play mat, and this construction site version is sure to delight your little construction-lovers!

Play-Doh Toys

Your kids can build their own architectural wonders with these Play-Doh toys.
