Shopping for children is always fun, and it becomes much easier when the child in question has a favorite television show or character. For kids who love the red "Sesame Street" character Elmo, the gift possibilities are endless. Select the perfect Elmo gift and the child you are shopping for is sure to be thrilled.
Room Decor
Help decorate his room with Elmo items so that he is surrounded by his favorite character when he wakes up, goes to bed and plays in his room. For example, select a duvet cover, pillowcases and sheets with Elmo's picture on it. Or choose a lamp with a base shaped like Elmo. Another idea is to select a large picture of Elmo that his parents can hang on the wall.
Stuffed Doll
Choose a stuffed Elmo doll for the child so that she can hang out with Elmo while she plays. You can select a simple stuffed Elmo doll so she can carry him around, put him in her bike basket and let him have tea parties with her. Alternatively, go with a battery-operated Elmo doll that sings or talks.
Books
Another Elmo gift idea is a collection of books. Look for books that tell the child stories about activities Elmo does and has plenty of pictures of Elmo playing with his other "Sesame Street" friends. Along with story books, choose an Elmo coloring book and a box of crayons.
DVDs
A child who loves Elmo will certainly like watching him on television. Choose a set of DVDs featuring Elmo's television show "Sesame Street." Choose a DVD with entire episodes of "Sesame Street" or simply clips of Elmo.
Costume
Help her to dress up like her favorite "Sesame Street" character with an Elmo costume. Look in toy stores or online for a furry red costume and a mask so that she can look like her friend. Although this is a great gift to give around Halloween, it also works for any time of the year.
