Aquadoodle
Obsessed with this interactive Aquadoodle interactive mat, that’s so clever to introduce your little ones to drawing in such a fun way.
They can learn to hold a pencil for the first time when making their first strokes as they create their own magical designs.
All you have to do is fill the Aquadoodle pen with water, run the nib over the magic mat and see the colours appear, so there’s very little mess for grown ups to clear up. Phew!
There are extra surprises around the edges where kids will discover lots of different shapes and colourful characters.
Inside the border are hidden letters and numbers to trace and colour over – a great way to learn basic writing strokes.

Pop-up Pirate
Nothing beats a classic toy at Christmas to bring familes together for hours of laughter.
With people tighening their budgets, you don’t have to spend a fortune either.
Love this Pop-up Pirate for kids 4 years and up.
This board game, which has been around since the 1980s, is great to get kids thinking and decision making.
Take turns shoving swords into the pirate’s barrel, but careful not to explode him!
