Real Life Videogame Gifts for your Very-Online Kids

Zoomers and their younger siblings, Gen Alpha weren’t just raised by the internet, they were born in the internet… Practically. For better or worse, they are the very online generation, and if I’m being honest so are Millenials. Regardless, as a parent of Gen Alpha kids, it is often my goal to try to catch their interest with offline things. One good tactic is real life items with themes from their favorite online things; this includes things like Minecraft play swords, Fortnite nerf guns, and Aphmau plushies to name a few. Sponsored links below, to save you some time!

Bring mario into your home with the RC mario racer.  Toddler and big kid approved. You might even hear your kids say, dang these real life Mario game graphics are so good…! We got one last Xmas for our 3 and 8 year olds, and it has gotten a good bit of play time.

Before it was fortnite, it was minecraft (perhaps for your household, it’s both at the same time!) This minecraft backpack even comes with a separate lunch box, pencil kit and a keyring/hand sanitizer dispenser.  Official merchandise and everything!

In our household, this fortnite nerf gun is automatically more approved even though the only difference is fortnite is written on it. Why exactly? Your videogame kid can tell you better than I can, but the short of it is fortnite is cool.

There are some really nice minecraft plushy sets with multiple smaller plushies, and also bigger cuddlier minecraft animals. The set may be a little better for make believe games, whereas the cuddlies are for… well cuddling also. I don’t think you’ll go wrong either way, to be honest.

There is also a less cuddly, more practical set of official minecraft night lights. Still cute as a button if you ask me, and I think your minecraft kid will agree.

Buy with caution- because chopping pillows with this diamond minecraft sword is addictive, and you don’t want your kids to chop more than pillows.  Set the boundaries before you gift it, and you’ll have a lot less “reeling it back in” work to do. Also comes in purple enchanted version

Kids and projectiles… a match made in purgatory.  At least these ones are soft and shouldn’t hurt or break anything! Also a good excuse to tell them to go outside, if it’s warm enough. Plus they have the lovable Minecraft theme, sure to engage your very online children to do something in the real world for a little bit.

Maybe you need to sneak some practical gifts into the stack this year.  Maybe your kid just likes fashion. Either way, this fortnite backpack is a good choice for your little fortnite lover. 8 year old tested, and approved.

Aphmau is a youtube famous minecraft player, your minecraft lover has most likely watched and loves.  Aphmau plushies were a hot topic for a hot minute in our household- and there were no less than 5 discussed, and at least 2 purchased. These mini plushies have the added appeal of the surprise, that is, you get 4 out of 8 possible designs which means you get a surprise unboxing experience. I personally love surprises, and I know my kids like the surprise toy packs too. If Youtube is any indication, those unboxing videos get a lot of views- it’s a common love.
