Drone fans will love Drone Home this Christmas! This fast-paced kids’ action game features a real drone! The race is on to help save your aliens – can you get them to safety? You have to launch each of your aliens down the ramp and into the drone where they can flee to safety.

Crafty kids will love creating their own stickers with this cool set. There are over 180 3D holographic and metallic stickers to be made. The set includes 180 foam stickers, three stencils, over 50 holographic and metallic sheets. Available to buy here.

Snow at Christmas is every child’s wish, and you can make that wish come true with Buzz Snow. The perfect Christmas Eve box filler that once hydrated looks and feels just like snow – except it won’t melt! After two and a half weeks the snow will start to dehydrate and return to its powder form, ready to be activated again next year!! Perfect for Christmas displays and fun sensory activities, it is non-toxic and safe for both children and animals. Available to buy here.

Air Ball is a fun floating ball that can be played on surfaces such as laminate, wood, and even thin carpet. It’s perfect for indoor play without the damage associated with ball games in the house! Great for letting off steam during the Christmas holidays! Available to buy here.

There is so much fun to be had with this super cool Wall Racer. A gravity-defying sports car that can climb and race up walls and across ceilings! The bright LED headlights make it ideal for night time driving! Charge the car directly from the remote and using the tri-band frequency you can race up to three cars at once with just a flick of a switch! Available to buy here.

The Micro Jet is sure to add some fun to Christmas. This small-sized plane can be used both indoors and out. The remote control has an extended control range, and there are three different speeds – you can even do a 360-degree flip in the air! The self-control button is quite impressive as it makes the jet fly in circles. The box includes Jet, rechargeable battery, remote control and USB charger with spare parts. Available to buy here.

Anyone interested in drones will love this next feature! The Thunder Glow is a radio-controlled, medium-sized Drone that has LED lights. It has a 6-axis gyro stabiliser and long-range 2.4 GHz controller. With three speed settings and an automatic trim function, there is fun to be had! Available to buy here.

Technology

Social media is fast becoming an essential part of daily life for teens today. It’s a place for them to connect with friends and become creative by producing their own content and video. The trouble is content creation requires equipment which can become an expensive hobby! Well, not to worry because The Studio Creator is an affordable way to enhance video content with everything you need inside one box. Perfect for budding YouTubers or TikTok wannabes. Included in the box is an adjustable tripod, smartphone holder, LED ring light which tilts 180° and has three different light settings, a 24-page Guidebook with essential checklists and hints and tips and a green screen backdrop to change the appearance of your background! SRP £24.99 available to buy from Smyths.

If you are looking for device accessories, I’d recommend PuroBasic for kids because unlike most headphones the volume is limited to 85dB. Listening to music that is too loud can cause damage to children’s eardrums and can even lead to noise-induced hearing loss. Reducing the volume means that you can protect your children’s hearing. Puro Sound Labs kid headphones have an advanced sound-optimizing Puro Balanced Response Curve which means they emit crystal-clear sound. The ear cups and headband are covered with vegan leather which is soft and durable. The headphones are fully adjustable for a comfortable fit.  Compatible with all devices that have a 3.5mm audio connection. Available in Pink, Green, Blue and Red from *Amazon £19.99.

I think The FourFit Mini would make a great gift this Christmas! An activity tracker band specifically for children that still has the features of an adult fit band The FourFit Mini is the only children’s fitness tracker to include heart rate tracking as standard! There are goal tracking features, reminders to move, step tracking, sleep tracking and vibration alarm. It’s also mud and splash proof which is ideal because we all know what kids can be like! Up to 5-day battery life and rapid charge means little time is wasted charging! Suitable for ages 6+ available to buy here for £24.99.

Beauty & Hair

When it comes to the products we put on our kids, we want natural, safe and nonchemical based formulas. When it comes to hair styling Locks in Goodness is the place to go. They use ingredients approved by the British Soil Association that have been minimally processed. They have a perfect hairstyling gift set which would make a lovely Christmas gift. The set includes:

Hair Smoothie – an award-winning natural leave-in conditioner and detangler that is organic, natural, vegan and eco-friendly.

Books

The Little People Big Dreams books make excellent gifts, and this year I think the perfect addition to their abundant collection has to be Captain Tom Moore. 2020 has been one rollercoaster of a year, but one fantastic event was the moment the veteran Captain Tom Moore raised over £30 million for the NHS during the coronavirus pandemic. Not only can you discover his life in the pages of this wonderful book – by purchasing you are making a 3% donation of the cover price to NHS Charities Together. RRP £9.99 available to buy on *Amazon.

A book I think everyone could do with reading is: This Book Is Anti-Racist. As parents, all we really want is happy children, raised well with good values and kind hearts. There is no denying that racism exists and the best way to eradicate it is through educating our children on the origins of racism and give them the tools to make a change. This book puts everything in easy to understand language that is both thought-provoking and powerful. RRP £8.99 available to buy from *Amazon.

The Mysteries of the Universe will have children captivated with its stunning array of images and engaging descriptions.

Bestselling author Tom Fletcher has a brand-new adventure: The Danger Gang and it’s sure to be a huge hit. Follow lead character, Franky, as he leaves his best friend Dani behind and moves to a new town. Although he wishes he wasn’t leaving Dani Franky is excited for the new adventure until one night everything changes when a storm hits with loud thunder and strange green lightning.
