Bestest Christmas Gift Ideas No.23 – soft toy tool box
All small boys love their tool box, don’t they? But the trouble is always the hammer. Making contact with your knees. And the television. And baby sister.
But look at this one: everything, including the bag, is made from fabric; and is therefore SOFT!!
The set includes the tool box, hammer, screwdriver, wrench, and an adjustable wrench, is 100% cotton – and is just £19.99. Would make a small boy happy, eh?

Read MoreBestest Christmas Gift Ideas No.20 – totally fab Wooden Bow and Arrows set
How cool is this: real old fashioned fun with this wooden bow and arrows set. The bow has been reinforced
in the central section to help prevent snapping if pulled too far back and it even has a central guide hole to assist with lining up arrows. I have it on the very best finally-grown-out-of-his authority that this is an ace version! And at £11.50 it’s a bargainous price too. We just love Berry Red (could an online shop feel any more traditionally Christmassy?)o be sure to have a meander around the site whilst you’re there.
Bestest Christmas Gift Ideas No.19 – Pinhole Photography Kit
My son would LOVE this Pinhole Photography kit! He’s keen on photography, and like all boys he loves science experiments – to me this is the best of both. On top of which, he learns in this oh-so-easy age of the digital camera the theory and craft behind the art of photography.
The kit supplies everything you need to take and process a photograph; a slot-together wooden camera, photographic paper, developer and fixer, tweezers, and gloves, plus a step by step guide of what to do. £22.95
