These mythical sea creatures, with the head and bodice of a woman and the tail of a fish, are part of folklore throughout the history of time. It's almost impossible to identify exactly how or when she came to be the most mesmerizing enchantress. Homer, the famous Greek poet, references mermaids in his poem The Odyssey, dating back to the 8th century BC.

But for young children, she is the essence of beauty, kindness, and magic. Here are the best mermaid gifts for kids to snuggle with for hours, decorate their bedrooms, and indulge in an imaginary world of play.
