This Children’s Day gift for students under ₹100 list is for teachers, class moms and tuition teachers buying one gift for every child in a class of 20 to 40. Children’s Day is on 14 November 2026, so order by 9 November to be safe. Every pick costs ₹49 to ₹99 for one piece: colour sets from DOMS, Camlin, Faber-Castell and Cello, pencils and school kits, Ruskin Bond story books, a Chacha Chaudhary comic and a BPA-free bottle. We opened every Flipkart listing, checked price, stock and ratings, and left out candy, sharp tools and toys we could not confirm as BIS certified. These children’s day gifts for students are the same for every child and useful at school.

- Why are there no toys or puzzles on this Children’s Day gift for kids list?
- Indian law requires toys to carry BIS (ISI) certification. The puzzles, card games and soft toys we found under ₹100 did not show it on the listing, so we left them out. Books and stationery are not toys and need no BIS mark.
