Halloween is over, the trees are almost bare and the cold weather is definitely here to stay. Which can only mean one thing, Christmas is on its way! Every year I promise myself I will get more organised, that I won't be frantically running around on Christmas eve trying to finish the last bit of shopping, or wrapping gifts well into the night. But every year Christmas comes around and I find myself unorganised and stressed.
But this year, I actually feel like I might be a bit more organised. Now I am not promising their won't be any last minute dashes on Christmas eve or late night gift wrapping! But I am definitely more organised with the present buying and one place I have found that has been perfect for finding gift ideas is PoundToy.
PoundToy has a HUGE range of products with something for everyone I had no trouble at all finding lots of toys, games and products that would make perfect gift ideas for both James and Evelyn. There are toys starting at just a few pence and PoundToy also stocks big name toys too such as L.O.L Surprise, Marvel, Disney, Hot Wheels, Crayola and so many more. To make finding the perfect gift easy you can choose to shop by brand, price or even age.
After a quick browse I managed to pick up lots of goodies for Christmas and being able to shop categories made it really easy and stress free. I managed to get games, stocking fillers and even a few inflatables for the pool (even if it is just the local leisure centre one for now!). Here is a selection of toys I picked for James and Evelyn from the PoundToy website.
Stocking Fillers -
When it comes to stocking fillers you really are spoilt for choice with PoundToy. I picked up these goodies which include two splat balls (unicorn and egg), unicorn flitter goo slime pack, Zuru 5 surprise toys and Crayola mighty markers. All which are small enough to fit inside a stocking and toys that I know the kids will have lots of fun playing with.
Sensory Toys -
Evelyn especially is a huge fan of sensory toys (or toys she can make a mess with!) and so when I saw these two products on the website I knew they would both be a hit. Both the unicorn slime and Unicorn glitter kinetic sand were under £5 (slime £4 and sand £2) and make great little gifts. I think I will stock up on some more goodies like this for all the parties the kids get invited to as well.
Inflatables -
You just can't go wrong with inflatables when it comes to gifts for kids. Now I know what you are thinking, its Christmas not summer but if your kids are anything like mine they love being at the pool regardless of the weather! Plus who said you can't buy the kids some bits for Christmas that they can then use in the summer. The bonus being that since it isn't summer anymore you can pick up things like this super cheap too. I also couldn't resist the unicorn stick inflatable which I know Evelyn will love galloping around the house on.
Fun & Games -
Christmas isn't Christmas without some new games to play and there are plenty to choose from with PoundToy. James has been learning about space at school this term and has been fascinated so I couldn't resist this Rocket Drop game. I also found this "dough tastic" hair stylist salon which will be perfect for Evelyn, it might even save some of her Barbie's from having their hair snipped as she has become really interested in hair at the moment.
I also found this lovely little "secret notebook" which has a small padlock on the side that can be locked. James has one like this and Evelyn is desperate to have a diary like James so I know she will love this.
Arts & Crafts -
Who doesn't love art's and crafts, especially when they contain slime or unicorns! These two sets caught my eye on the website as I know the kids will have loads of fun getting craft with these on Boxing day. The magical kingdom unicorn set contains everything you need to create two fridge magnets whilst the gooZooka set contains everything you need to make 8 slime gush balls. Again even after Christmas has passed these would be perfect to keep in the cupboards for kids parties too.
I managed to get everything above for under £50 which I think you will agree is great value for money! It was all delivered straight to my door a few days later and is ready to be wrapped. The whole experience of buying with PoundToy was easy and enjoyable and has certainly made my Christmas shopping a little easier this year!
