12 Days of Christmas Gift Ideas - For Younger Children

As part of our 12 Days of Christmas (you already know we've been running some lovely competitions and giveaways) we thought we would also try to give you a helping hand with some gift ideas suitable for children of all ages. I have written three posts, one for gift ideas suitable for older children, one suitable for younger children and one full of crafty gift ideas for children of all ages.

Here are some gift ideas suitable for children aged 3 and younger. 

The HABA Bobbing Bunny and Quacking Frog have to be the most adorable wooden toys I have ever seen. They are suitable for children aged 10 months plus and are just the right size for little hands. 

These toys would be a huge hit with older babies who are just finding their way around playing with toys, they are designed to stimulate the senses of your child. They are made from beech wood with threaded cord , are brightly coloured and rattle when shaken. They are priced around £11.99 and can be bought from stockists like Amazon.

My boys are huge fans of Bananas in Pyjamas. They love watching the TV show and have even been known  to pretend to be one of the twin Banana brothers B1 and B2. The toys are really soft and cuddly and would be lots of fun for any child. The B1 and B2 talking soft toys are so cute and if you squeeze their tummy you can hear one of five fun phrases. The B2 toy we were sent says things like "Are you thinking what I'm thinking B1" 

The Bananas are suitable for children aged 10 months and over. Each Banana is sold separately for around £9.99, they can be bought for most good toy stores. I think this toy would make a great stocking filler for any Bananas in Pyjamas fan or smaller child.  Golden Bear also have lots of other Bananas in Pyjamas toys available.

Lastly I think any little boy who loves cars would love the Go Mini Freestyler Bulldog, he also comes with a hidden surprise! If you press a button it reveals a hidden British Bulldog figure and it even barks. The Go MINI Freestyler Bulldog has a personalised number plate and is uniquely decorated for the ultimate in individual style. It is suitable for children aged 3+. This toy has an RRP of £9.99. The Go MINI collection represents one of the finest and most exciting launches for the younger boys this Christmas. With four ranges and 17 cars to collect, each with its own name, fun features, and unique decoration there’s a Go MINI for everybody. We reviewed the GO MINI Stunt Launcher in summer and James, our littlest trouble maker absolutely loves it. We highly recommend these toys.

Any of these toys mentioned above would be great stocking fillers for younger children.
