Family Christmas Gift Guide for the little ones!

With Black Friday over and out of the way and Christmas just around the corner I’ve decided to put together a gift guide to help people get ideas for Christmas presents. We have two little girls earthside and one little boy in heaven. These are a few of my favourite bits I have found.

*This is a collaborative post, some of the products in this post have been gifted to us previously and are working along side some brands for this gift guide*

Little Brian Art Station
Let your little people get creative this Christmas with the Little Brian Art Station. It is double sided with a whiteboard and chalkboard and comes with 6 paint sticks, 6 chalk sticks and a duster. The paint sticks dry within 30 seconds which means these are mess free! You can also use the paint sticks on different materials for example window painting and rock painting.

Splash About
With the most beautiful swimwear and swimming accessories, Splash About have some really wonderful gifts for your little merbabies. A fantastic gift for children as they can use them for swimming lessons, summertime and holidays or even splashing around in the bath at home. I’ve picked out a few of my favourites from the website. The first are these gorgeous Nina and Noahs Ark hooded towels. My daughters love to wear a hooded towel after a bath or shower it makes them feel all cosy. These are £21.99 each and they also come in a smaller size for babies which costs £16.99.

I also adore these float wings and matching swimming costumes which would come in so handy for holidays, swimming lessons and splashing about when the weather is warmer. They actually have a Learn to swim bundle where you can save if you buy them together for £28.78 but if you don’t need a swimming costume you can get the floats on their own for £18.99. They have one for girls which is Unicorns and Raimbows and for boys they have Castles and Dragons.

My last gift choice from Splash about are these Shorty Wetsuits. What I like the most about these is that they can keep your little ones warm when it’s cool and protected from the harmful rays of the sun when’s it’s sunny. They have UPF50+ sun protection. They have a whole range of Wetsuits and UV suits but these were my favourite at £24.99 and come in sizes 2-4 and 4-6.

Pomsies Lumies
These fluffy little toys may look cute but they are also full of personality. Children will enjoy feeding them colours and the different colours can change their mood. There are 5 different game modes to choose from which you can switch by pressing the button on their nose. Pomsies Lumies also have 50 secret sounds which can be unlocked by different colour patterns. Inside the box you will get one Lumie friend, a comb for the Lumie’s big wild hair and also an instruction sheet that doubles up as colours that you can use for them to pick up.
