December is the most magical time of the year, especially for the little elves in our lives.
Whether you’re shopping for a teen that’s too cool for anything, or a little one with the most infectious laugh, we’re here to help you find the perfect present that makes their eyes light up.
Crafty fun
There’s nothing more fun than a little bit of creative chaos over the festive period. From slime sets and painting kits to DIY Christmas cards – crafty projects are the perfect way to keep little hands happy and busy.
Head to Toytown for colourful craft sets or pick up a DIY Slime’presso machine set (£20) from The Entertainer where you can mix and match powders to create your own slime.
Poundland and Ryman are great for all your affordable craft goodies – think glitter glues, stickers and festive themed foam shapes, gel pens and paints.
For that extra special Christmas DIY – nip into Sostrene Grene where you can find mini elf sized furniture pieces to create your own magical white wonderland.
Lots of sparkles
For your glam loving elves, you can’t beat a little bit of glitter and shimmer. Claire’s is the ultimate destination for all your sparkling hair accessories and cute festive jewellery.
Over at Smiggle you’ll find some adorable bath and body sets and the sweetest Care Bears Jewellery box (£14) to store all their favourite pieces.
Toys and games
From education toys, books and imaginative play to popular brand favourites and interactive fun, Festival Place has it all when it comes to toys and games alike.
Grab their favourite character LEGO set from The Entertainer or a Barbie House Pop-up Playset from Toytown – you can even pick up a Nintendo Switch 2 from HMV.
If you have a bookworm on your hands, why not pop into Waterstones and pick up a little something from their favourite author.
Plus, Build-a-Bear has the most adorable 10th Anniversary Glisten Reindeer Plush that’s the perfect size for little ones to cuddle.
Teen favourites
For teens that have outgrown the traditional toys and games, head to Menkind or GoGo Gadget where you can pick up fun tech gifts like these Orbit gaming headphones (£20), or a portable speaker (£18) to play their favourite tracks on the go.
You could even pick up a RED5 Phone Printer (£35) – a must have for parties and festivals.
Happy gifting!
