Six Days of Christmas Giving: Part 4!

Disclaimer: I firmly believe that it is the thought that counts when it comes to Christmas gifts and that Christmas should always be a joy, not a financial horror. I save throughout the year to be able to buy gifts for my nearest and dearest, love a good bargain, will make gifts and donate in lieu of gifts from time to time, but the items in this post I share in case you're seeking a little retail inspiration. Enjoy!




Isn't this cute?  I love aprons and the options on this site are just darling :)

What a great gift for a couple!  Love this set of mugs.



One of the nicest smells in the world...in candle form!

Welcome to a goodly percentage of my Christmas break.  What bookworm could resist?


A kindle cover festooned with a list of your favourite things - how lovely!



I had one of these in my role playing corner at my last school and it was a big hit!  With my teacher hat on, I can vouch that games which involve counting, adding and making change are great for early maths too. :)



Such a childhood favourite!  Lego is just one of those toys which never seems to go out of style :)



Another perrenial favourite!



For the little one who loves to engage in acts of derring-do - their very own Superman suit!

  1. Funky gifts. I'd really love to smell that candle...although the name itself doesn't sound appealing, does it? lol

    Thanks for sharing! These are great!

Thank you for your comment - I do read them all but it may take me a little while (a couple of days) to respond during busy times. I love reading what you have to say!

Have a wonderful day!
