This year sees the 250th birthday of<br />

Hamleys, the world’s most famous toy<br />

store, a store synonymous with theatre,<br />

magic and entertainment. So who better to turn<br />

to for inspiration when searching for that perfect<br />

toy? Read on for Hamleys’ Christmas guide<br />

written especially for <strong>Families</strong> readers and full of<br />

some great gift ideas for children of all ages.<br />

The nights have drawn in, there’s a magical feel in the air and there’s more<br />

than one kind of wrapping-up on everyone’s mind. It can only mean one<br />

thing... Christmas is on its way! Whether that fills you with ho, ho, ho’s or<br />

Scrooge-like groans, we hope this fun-filled guide to all things festive, will<br />

help make this year a Christmas to remember...<br />

It’s the thought that counts...<br />

Recent economic difficulties have triggered a new dawn of consumerism.<br />

Many of us are now concentrating on quality purchases that will stand the<br />

test of time. Some of the old favourites are resurfacing and proving their<br />

worth to a new generation of inquisitive minds. Children like to be<br />

entertained but they thrive on interaction, they will happily watch but they<br />

learn quicker from doing, they benefit from competition but they enjoy team<br />

work. Classic toys are all this and much more and they really do have timeless<br />

appeal. With that in mind this year, why not focus on something they will<br />

love this Christmas but will treasure for many more to come...<br />

Baby’s first Christmas<br />

Latest additions may be slightly oblivious to the<br />

seasonal chaos but you’ll remember their first<br />

Christmas forever and will be keen to make it extra<br />

special. Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a keepsake or<br />

something they can cherish for years to come.<br />

My First Dolly £19<br />

My First Dolly will be loved by all. She is so<br />

squeezably soft that little arms will adore snuggling<br />

up to her. Dressed beautifully, she has wild hair that<br />

little hands will love to touch and tug!<br />
