So here we are just a matter of weeks before Christmas and prep fully under way.
Knowing first hand how supply chains are struggling this year I have been super organised and all bar gifts for my husband and the finishing touches to stockings and wrapping – we are almost there!

Do you find buying Christmas Gifts tricky?

I struggle every year. I dislike buying gifts for the sake of buying gifts and finding something useful for children and adults who almost always have everything they “need” is always tough too.

With this in mind I thought it might be helpful for myself and the wonderful Lauren who works behind the scenes for Eco Souk to share with you what we are gifting this year – whether its from Eco Souk or not.

You may already know that my children are aged 8, 6 and 2.5 – here’s what you’ll find in their Santa Stockings this year:

Stocking Fillers – 2.5 year old

Olli Ella Magical Creatures

Natura Tribe Natural Play dough (Use Rosie10 for 10% off)

Plan Bath Toys

Number & Alphabet Flashcards by The Little Coachhouse

Wooden Star Wand – Ark Children

A Happy Cracker filled with biodegradable confetti and a Maileg Mouse

6 and 8 year olds

Shleich Animals – Selfridges or locally from Borders

Plan Toys Spinning Tops

Play on Table Tennis

Books – Reading, colouring and sticker books.

I love a bit of a Family Christmas tradition too and just like in years past, they will each receive a clementine, some M & S Gold Coins and a personal letter from Santa – courtesy of Polar Post – in their stockings too!
