The Works Christmas Shop

Christmas is slowly creeping up on us and I don't know about you, but I don't feel ready yet. I still have lots of people to buy presents for and things to get organised. Our Christmas tree is now up though, which is definitely making us feel a little more christmassy and I do love all the excitement in the lead up to the big day.

Take a look at all our Christmas crafts and activities.

Buying gifts for the children is always my favourite type of shopping, so I have slowly been buying them bits and pieces as I have seen them and I think I am nearly there. It will then just leave me the huge job of wrapping it all! I am starting to panic a little now though that I might have got one of the children more presents than the other, so I'm going to have to have a quick count up before the wrapping commences.

The cost of Christmas quickly mounts up so I am always looking out for bargins. The works Christmas shop is the perfect place to browse for cheap gifts. I have put together a list of some of my favourite things for young children from The Works Christmas shop. The total cost for ALL the items below is under £25.

This treasury of Christmas stories is full of 18 stories, songs and carols to enjoy together. It includes one of my favourites, 'The night before Christmas', which I always love reading to the children before they go to sleep on Christmas eve. £2

Soft toys always go down well with my two children and this festive hand puppet looks adorable. Puppets encourage children to be creative and use their imaginations and are a wonderful way to encourage children to listen to stories. £2

What child wouldn't find pranking their family and friends hilarious. This pranks and jokes tin comes complete with a whoopee cushion, fake sicks, and a mega fun book filled with jokes. I know Harry would be in hysterics watching me step on a piece of pretend poo! £7

I think I would enjoy playing with this Elf Yourself photo kit as much as the kids! It features various props including elf ears and beards and a photo frame for you to capture the moment in. £3

This christmas sticker activity book is packed with pages of stickers to keep little elves busy. A child can never have too many stickers! £1

Little scientists would love this make your own growing crystals kit. Using the items included in the box you create your own crystals and watch them grow. I think I want to try this myself! £7

Imagine it! Build it! Collect it! with these amazing Clingabeez. There is no mess involved as all you have to do is squash the pieces together for them to stick. Explore your wildest imaginations. £2

These are just a few of my favourite things for the works Christmas Shop, but there are loads more fun things to choose from. Take a look at their online store or pop into one of their shops. With only 2 weeks left until Christmas there isn't long left now!
