Simbrix

I rather like these Simbrix – they are a bit like those beads that you iron but they interlock so don’t fall apart all the time.  Plus they look a bit Minecraft-y.  The all-new Simbrix kits are a parent’s dream and a children’s Christmas wish.  Suitable for ages 6+, these award-winning, multi-coloured simulated bricks connect and hold together bit by bit without any ironing, forming an inspirational array of designs, which can be easily made and re-made.   From wonderful wildlife to crazy celebrity creations, there’s no limit to the imagination when you’re young at heart!   Simbrix is available from Amazon. For details visit www.simbrix.com

Lightning McQueen and Jackson Storm go head-to-head in the Disney Pixar Cars 3 Piston Cup Racing Game. Rev your engines ready for the thrilling race! When the light goes green it’s time to start pumping the electronic gas pedal to accelerate your car forward along the track. But be careful when the red light shows you should break, if you hit the gas pump on a red light you must move your car backwards. Challenge your friends and family to a racing duel and the first to reach the end of the track is named the winner and claims the Piston Cup trophy.

Will you get your reef ‘n’ counter with the new game Life in the Coral Reef? Speed and recognition is needed in this aquatic adventure game.

Hallmark Disney Itty Bittys

Adan Chung sketched a quick interpretation of what popular characters could look like if they were just a bit “itty bittier.” Soon, Adan’s simple-but-fresh portrayal of popular licensed characters inspired an entire collection that continues to grow. Now within our itty bitty family, are some of the most iconic characters of all time, with many more characters on the way. With their small stature and super-cute style, they make the perfect gift or stocking filler. Even if it’s a treat for yourself itty bittys are perfect for every occasion. Itty bittys may be small but there’s certainly a whole lot to love!  See prices of   Disney Beauty & the Beast Itty Bittys here.
