Stuck on what to get for that kiddie birthday party? Try this: Go to gifthero.com, enter the child’s age and gender, then punch in the amount you want to spend, and presto, a list of mom-approved ideas will appear.

Pretty cool. I just searched for a boy, age 8, and chose $20 or less as my spending goal. Here’s some of what came back at me: Dragonology 110-piece puzzle, Quick Chess, a Balloon-Powered Vehicle Set and The Klutz Book of Paper Airplanes.

Love it!
