The possibilities are endless when it comes to kids this year — Star Wars is everywhere, Lego just keeps getting better and better, and, the Disney Infinity universe keeps expanding. With all that in mind, we focused on Disney Parks merchandise you can buy online.

A great new source for these kinds of gifts is the new Shop Disney Parks app, which lets you order from a vast array of items available at the parks — many of which aren’t available on the website. So check it out.

Here’s a look at some different kinds of gifts for kids this holiday season.

Christmas train set (regularly $129.95): The 30-piece train set includes locomotive, coal tender, skating carol car, caboose, box car, and more than 20 feet of track. It’s populated by characters including Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto, Chip, Dale, Stitch, Tinker Bell, and Duffy. There’s also a Monorail train set (regularly $89.95) that is less festive, but maybe more cool, depending on your taste.

Start an art collection: Give them a piece of art they can treasure forever. Disney offers an extensive selection of art online at a wide range of price points. Like many pieces in the collection, the Mickey Mouse Pirates of the Caribbean giclée above is printed on paper or canvas and can be purchased framed or unframed. Prices range from $120 to $175.

You also could help them start another kind of collection.

Holiday plushes (regularly $19.95 each): Disney releases an array of new holiday plush designs every year. Our favorite this year is Sven, catching the first snowflake of the year on his tongue. Mickey and Minnie also show up wearing matching outfits.

Set of Disney Animators’ Collection dolls ($199.95): This set brings together 15 miniature versions of the Animators’ Collection dolls. Each is about 5 inches high.

Disney Theme Parks Monopoly ($44.95): Forget Boardwalk and Park Place. Here you’re aiming to collect Matterhorn and Space Mountain. Be careful — you can still go to jail. For ages 8+.
