Christmas - a time for giving and sharing, a time for families and celebrations.
If you're a parent or care for young children you'll also know that the pester power of young children can make it a stressful time for some. So this year, get ahead of the game with ideas for Christmas gifts that come straight from the horse's mouth!
You can certainly buy the top names if budgets allow but if you shop around you can always find a cheaper version that will bring hours of great play time for all.
The Dream Toys list includes a mixture of simple, hands-on toys like Lego. This is a classic and well loved toy that gives pleasure for months and years after Christmas has passed. The set predicted to be a best seller this year is the Lego City Airport which allows you to build the plane, passenger terminal and control tower. While this is a beautiful set, if budgets are tighter, you can get smaller sets for a smaller price tag - or sensible shoppers will check the best prices online to make sure they get a bargain!
For younger children there's the Moon Dough Barn, a very simple "crank the handle" idea to make farm animals from the amazing colored Moon Dough which never seems to crack or dry out. Again there are less expensive dough, clay or plasticine kits that you can look out for.
I hate children to be stereotyped but the Dream Toys list has boys toys like the Stampede ECS or girls toys like the Zhu Zhu hamster Salon.
There are also some high-tech toys like the VideoCam Kidizoom is very intuitive, so that a child will soon master of special effects like a pro!
And if you are family for games, like the classic Monopoly, research has brought to date in this multimedia edition of the 21 Century, or the game is completely insane Pumpaloons for all in a race to blow out huge balls.
