Stocking stuffers for every kind of kid
The tree is up, the menu is planned and the playlist of cheesy Christmas carols is set – but are you stocked up on stocking stuffers? Here’s a selection of gifts to hang over the fireplace (or door handle).
- If you have a kid with a crafty streak – the kind who’s constantly gluing glitter to everything and colouring in the walls – take a look at The Pointless Book 2, I Scream DIY Nail Art or Dinosaur Origami.
- Are they more of a scientific sort? They can memorise all the planets with these breathtaking Space Flash Cards featuring images from the NASA archives, or create their own paper toy dinosaur dig with Excavate! Dinosaurs.
- Little books for little stockings – we have lots of miniature versions of classic tales, like Possum Magic, The Gruffalo, and Magic Beach.
- Puzzle over space with this Space Landing Floor Jigsaw, or give them a lesson in road rage early with the Traffic Jam Matching Game.
- Storybook characters need cuddles too! We have lots of book and toy gift sets, from Peter Rabbit to Pig the Pug.
- Going on a long trip over the holidays? Make the time fly by with the Art of Conversation Cards: Children’s Edition. Or if quiet contemplation is more your thing, gifts like the Animalium Activity Book or David Astle’s puzzle book Wordburger are bound to keep questions like, ‘Are we there yet?’ to a minimum.
