Christmas Gift Guide – Ideas for the kids

This is the final installment in my Christmas Gift Guide series. Check out the ideas for mum and ideas for dad gift guides for some inspiration!

Children should be relatively easy to buy for as there is so much on the market! We are constantly bombarded by adverts telling us to buy this, that and the other! However, I actually find the infinite choice a little daunting and never know what products are actually any good!

So, with that in mind I have compiled this list for young children- I hope it gives you some ideas!

• The Cuddles Time Reindeer* is the perfect gift for a baby or a toddler, with his bright red nose and stripy legs and arms he’ll become a favourite for many Christmases to come.

Available at Lloyds Pharmacy for £3.99

• Tobar Bump N Go Bubble Train*. This brightly coloured train moves along making chugging noises and blowing bubbles from its chimney. Perfect for any inquisitive baby!

Available from Amazon for £11.55

• Pyjamas are a must at Christmas- I am going to start the tradition of giving some in a Christmas Eve box so will be on the look out for matching sets for both my girls. These Christmas snowman pyjamas from Debenhams are cute for either a boy or a girl.

On sale between £5.95 – £7.70 depending on size.

• That’s not my… books. I love these and have a whole selection in our bookcase. That’s not my reindeer, That’s not my Santa and That’s not my angel come out every Christmas and are favourites in our house!

 RRP £5.99

• Every Child loves chocolate! My favourite chocolate is Cadbury and I always had a treat in the bottom of my stocking as a child so I intend on carrying this tradition on with my girls.

These treats can be found in any supermarket.

• I don’t know that there is a child out there who doesn’t love Lego! This Toddler Starter Builder Set is perfect for a young child who hasn’t any Lego already.

Available for £17.99 at Argos

• Both of my girls love dolls and our house is full of pushchairs and other accessories. The Baby Born Interactive Doctor Doll* has become G’s new favourite toy and goes everywhere with us now. If your child loves playing doctors then this doll is for them! If you want to find out more then take a look at the review.

• For as long as I can remember I have been given toiletries for Christmas. Why not start this tradition with your kids and give them a Minnie or Mickey Mouse shampoo & body wash* in their stocking? They each have a delicious scent, of either lemonade or strawberry fizz and is hypoallergenic so means tear free fun at bathtime!

 £5 each

• We recently bought G a bike and she loves it! So many people are now choosing those balance bikes, I hate them! Nothing wrong with a bike and stabilisers!! There are some great deals on at the moment so grab a bargain!

Disney’s Frozen 12 inch bike £89.99 at Toys R Us

I hope there are a few ideas for you there, sorry if they are slightly girl biased but I don’t really know what boys like!

What are you getting for your kids this Christmas? Do you give lots of little presents or one big gift? Or both?

 Those marked with an asterisk were sent to me to review for this gift guide. However all thoughts and words are my own.
