10 Last-Minute Gifts for Kids

Rita Templeton, a mother of 4 and contributor writer of She Knows, admitted to not being one of those parents whose Christmas shopping list has all been ticked off since September. Rather, she's one of these parents who are on the hunt for last-minute Christmas gifts until now.

And, to help parents who are "fellow holiday procrastinators" like her, she has put a guide together on what gifts to get for their children and on how they can have the gifts in time for Christmas, and be the "rockstar parents" in the eyes of the kids.

Here is a list of the best 10 last-minute gifts one can give to his/her children which Templeton found through her desperate browsing on Amazon.

Helpful tips and dates to remember

And for a bonus last-minute gift suggestion, Templeton wanted to give the spotlight to the Ice Cream Slime Kit, which parents can get for only $40.95.

This slime kit indeed holds true to its label as the "epic kit" for kids. It has everything children need to make loads of fluffy, butter, cloud and foam slime. Its different colors, sprinkles and scents make it look and smell like real delicious sweets.

Aside from the last-minute Christmas gift list, Templeton also gathered the following information for easier shopping and to ensure that the toys will arrive just in time.

1. Same-day delivery is very much possible for Amazon Prime members who live in an eligible zip code. They can have the toy delivered until December 24. One note, however, one should meet the "minimum threshold" which is only over $25.
2. ONE-DAY delivery with no minimum amount until December 23 is also available for members, and a TWO-DAY delivery with no minimum until December 22.
3. For non-Prime members, no need to worry because orders can still be shipped and arrive on time. It's just that rush shipping can get a "bit more sticky" as shipping times widely vary depending on the product. Thus, parents are encouraged to double-check the anticipated arrival date during check-out.
