Young ones excitedly anticipate receiving presents from their relatives, and *aguinaldo* money particularly from their godparents. Here’s a list of useful gifts your children can buy online, making fun and responsible use of their Christmas cash.   **School Supplies** *Show off your sense of stationery style* Students spend hours each day scribbling down class notes (or doodling) in their notebooks, and it’s important that they choose ones that are easy on the eyes and comfortable to write in. For example, *Jacinto & Lirio *products are all produced locally, designed with a native tropical flourish, while international brand *Kraft* makes straightforward and sturdy notebooks ideal for minimalists.                                Photo courtesy of Jacinto & Lirio via Takatack   [Jacinto & Lirio Pacem (Medium) ](https://www.takatack.com/shops/jacintoandlirio/j-l-pacem-medium-brown/product-115042_m?ref=q:jacinto%20lirio)P658 from Takatack                                                 Photo courtesy of Lazada   [Kraft Paper Cover Notebook ](https://www.lazada.com.ph/vintage-kraft-cover-notebook-drawing-scrawl-notepad-travel-journalsketchbook-diary-memo-book-with-blank-paper-56-sheets-112-pages32k-intl-30824263.html?spm=a2o4l.search.products-list.11.3f1b4f91SwxAXW&ff=1&time=1513478665)P460 from Lazada  Get a file organizer especially for students who prefer taking notes on sheets of paper. Amazon has a great portable option here: the *AmazonBasics *Expanding File case, letter size, in an understated black.

It can keep you focused when you actually do have to work or study, and offer some much needed stress relief! The *Arduino Starter Kit* promises to teach young makers how to build simple machines with some computer parts and programming—think of it as a more physically interactive introduction to coding.                                                        Photo courtesy of Lazada   [Arduino Starter Kit ](https://www.lazada.com.ph/arduino-starter-kit-23446720.html?spm=a2o4l.search.products-list.15.dc3ad76tAjat6&ff=1&time=1513552103)P1699 from Lazada Fans of The Last Jedi will love putting together the *Revell SnapTite Resistance X-wing*model.
