The same old saying comes around too quickly... “It’ll be Christmas soon”… and here we are. We are now in December, so it really does mean the countdown has officially started! Advent calendars at the ready!
For some of you, Christmas trees are up, lit with lights and you may even have some presents wrapped underneath. It really is a wonderful time of year, and we just love spending time with our loved ones.
Following a challenging 18 months of lock downs, we all want to make the most of our time with our friends and family. Whether you’re a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent or even carer, we are all googling the best gifts of 2021. Most of the excitement of course comes from children, with their wild imaginations that brings Santa to life, so the present searching becomes extra fun.
There’s been many popular brands this year; Cocomelon (based on the television programme), L.O.L Surprise! Dolls, Paw Patrol, or the toys every child wants, LEGO, Harry Potter and any fidget spinner. So to save you having to search, “top Christmas toys for children” we have put together 5 of what we think are the best Christmas presents!
LEGO
This is an all-time favourite and is perfect for every child, whether they’re 9 or 99! It comes in about a million pieces and so many different styles! Cars, a Disney castle, the Star Wars Millennium Falcon or even one of their best sellers, the Roman Colosseum. Who knew!? You can spend an entire afternoon building with a friends or family!
L.O.L Surprise
LOL Surprise are a glamour girls dream toy, dress them up in different outfits, sunglasses, shoes, you name it. As the name suggests, you can buy many themed collectibles and not know which one you have until you unbox it. Each doll comes with props so you can create the best role play scene. There are so many to collect and you can even strut your style with their own lunchboxes, handbag, pyjamas and many more!
Fidget Spinners
Fidget spinners are handheld toys designed to spin freely in your grasp and are fit for all ages. These are not only a toy that keeps you entertained but they’re a fantastic sensory toy and stress reliever. They’re a great incentive for children because of the benefits they provide such as increased concentration especially with normal academic tasks at school or even homework. They come in all different shapes, colours and are super addictive! They can either pop, click, spin, pull or even stretch.
A new bike
Put the adventure back into your weekends and go for a family bike ride; whether your little ones are still on their first balance bike or stabilisers, pick a route fit for everyone. Bike riding is not only fun, but it has great health benefits. It will improve joint mobility, muscle strength and will even strengthen your bones. Free time doesn’t have to be spent indoors doing homework or playing on the PlayStation when you can enjoy some family time and fresh air together.
A Springfree Trampoline!
Springfree trampolines are the PERFECT Christmas present! Not only is bouncing around fun, it’s also great for keeping the whole family healthy and active too (yes, you too mum and Dad!). And we know what you’re thinking, you can’t use a trampoline all year round, but we disagree! The beauty of a Springfree trampoline is that it’s designed to stay outside all year round. The frame is coated with galvanised paint to stop rust, they are tested to Australian UV standards to ensure they don’t fade in colour and are super strong so can be used whether it’s raining, windy or snowy!
Getting children away from technology can be a struggle, but the fabulous thing about all these wonderful toys is they are all screen-free!
Whoever you are buying for, we hope we have helped you find the perfect gift. And whoever you are spending Christmas with, wherever you are in the world, we wish you a very Merry Christmas from all of us at Springfree UK!
