At this time of year I always get asked for my top gift ideas for kids that are reasonably priced and which represent good value for money. So here is this year’s Christmas countdown…..
At number 10 – Fairy Doors
Bring the wonderful world of magic and fairies to life with these mystical fairy doors and share your home with your very own fairy friend!
This unusual gift will ignite a child’s imagination and creativity whilst also making many magical memories for the whole family.
At 9 – Microwave Warmers
Create relaxing cuddles and warming snuggles at bedtime with these adorable Warmies Cozy Plush Animals.
Simply heat in the microwave for two minutes and this soft toy transforms into a lovely comforter that exudes a gentle warmth with the soothing scent of lavender to make every bedtime calm and relaxed.
In at 8 – LED Canvases
Add a splash of colour to bedroom walls with these cool LED canvases, which can even be used as a nightlight as the two-hour timer means the lights can be set to switch off automatically.
At number 7 – Umbrellas that change colour in the rain
Keeping dry in the rain has never been so much fun!
These fantastic umbrellas hold a special secret that is only revealed once it starts to rain.
For these magical umbrellas change colour when it gets wet, making every rainy day instantly much more exciting.
Number 6 – Sleepy Lights
When we go to sleep, these night lights watch over sleeping children.
Part of the Aloka Sleepy Light ‘Adventures’ range, the lamp looks amazing on a bedroom shelf or bedside table and can be used as a gentle nightlight or as a brighter reading lamp.
Kids will also love choosing what colour to make their sleepy light and the easy-to-use remote control lets them select from a wide range of colours at the touch of a button.
At 5 – Hooded Towels
Bathtime is so much fun when you can be transformed into an animal! Kids will adore these animal hooded towels, which are both practical and fun. The large fluffy towel with hood ensures kids dry off quickly after their bath or swim.
In at 4 – Finger puppet sets
Bring well known stories and tales to life with these cute Finger Puppet Sets.
Children will be enchanted as they watch the puppets act out the story and it provides a great way to encourage children’s imaginations while having lots of fun at the same time.
At number 3- Emergency Vehicles Happy Hopperz
Emergency services to the rescue!
Kids will love bouncing around on a Happy Hopperz police car, police bike or fire engine.
The wing mirrors are the handles and are perfectly positioned to allow kids to hold on while they bounce! In addition, thick tyres provide the perfect steady base for lots of bouncing fun!
Number 2 – Reward Boxes
The Fairy or Pirate Reward Box is a beautifully crafted, wooden box, which will look stunning in any nursery, child’s bedroom or playroom
Rather than collect stickers on a chart, (like a traditional reward chart) children receive tokens, (your box comes with 20 wooden tokens in the shape of stars) which they post into the Reward Box.
The tokens can then be replaced, (ideally overnight by a magic ‘good behaviour’ Fairy / Elf / Pirate) with small rewards / promise vouchers as the children achieve their goals.
And at number 1 and selling out fast….
The Fart Card Game
A real stinker of a gift!
Let’s face it, farts are funny – especially for kids.
So if you know a child who finds passing wind hilarious, they will love this gift.
Based on the popular game Uno, the aim is to score points by getting rid of your cards.
