If you’re thinking of getting something for your child and you want to stay away from the usual toys that you see plastered across your TV screens then Kidzone-Toys could have something for you. They specialise in providing learning and creative toys for children and price everything reasonably with free delivery to the UK.

I particularly like their section on gadgets and gizmos; there are even a few things in there that I’ve got my eye on! For more information check out their website and see if you can find anything for your child, or yourself!

Gelli Baff is quite possibly the greatest innovation in kids bath time technology since Bubble Bath was invented. The idea is simple. Turn a bath of water into a bath of glorious, thick, goo.

You simply run a shallow bath (5-6cm deep), turn off the tap, add a sachet of the gelli baff powder and then all water will magically turn into jelly. When you have finished, there is another sachet of powder to add, which turns all the jelly back to water, so that it can be drained away.

Gelli Baff comes in a range of 4 colours, and costs £4.99 per 300ml box.
