The Top 3 Classic Toys for 10-Year Olds

The best toys for 10 year old kids are tried-and-true classics that have been around for decades! They’re knickknacks that adults will fondly remember as the reasons for an amazing childhood, because frankly, toy-makers simply don’t make toys the way they used to.

The following 3 baubles are top-ranking because they’re not quite antique, yet not considered modern either. They’re truly classics of the toy-world; playthings that kids and their kids and so-on can enjoy for generations to come.

Personally, each one of these toys is the focal point for a terrific childhood memory, and I hope modern children can form similar memories based on these true-blue knickknacks.

Monopoly Board Game

If there were ever a board game that epitomized my childhood, it was Monopoly!

This game is an instant classic, and it’s unusual to find a home without an older version. However, now there are newer, more advanced options available.

This is the tried-and-true method play with 45-60 minutes of playing time on a bi-fold game board with 2-8 players. You go around and around the board, collecting properties and attempting to steer other players into bankruptcies. With money trays, houses, hotels and (of course) all-time favorite tokens, this is a game that will keep kickin’ for as long as there are children and families interested in playing.

Easy-Bake Ultimate Oven

Kids can stir up delicious goodies in the revamped version of a classic Easy Bake oven!

A recipe booklet includes the ingredients and mixes to scrumptious treats that children can make, safely, from the comfort of home.

There are absolutely no light bulbs or touchable heating source, as this new version has been updated to be safer.

It includes pans for whipping up a cake, and step-by-step instruction on how long each cake or goody should be in the “oven.” Bake, serve, and enjoy!

ALEX Toys Friends 4 Ever Bracelet Kit

Friendship bracelets seemed to be the pentacle of popularity in Elementary School; a way for little girls and boys to pinpoint their best friends, letting everyone know the depth of an amazing friendship.

This kit leans back on that traditional with 22 colors of floss, beading, and a needle for sewing on accessories. There’s a “friendship” wheel to make weaving pieces more enjoyable, and a step-by-step, illustrated guide book offers kids an inside look on what their bracelets should be when completed.
