Looking at these pictures you could be forgiven for feeling a little disorientated; while grappling with the concept of the wettest drought on record there appears to be a new contradictory concept to confuse our rain-addled brains – Christmas in July.
While perusing candy canes, cakes and Christmas trees may feel as wrong as a skinny Santa Clause, here at Junior we are strong believers that forewarned is forearmed. So it was with a spring in our step and a mince pie in our hands that we perused Bright PR’s unseasonal showcase of the hottest Christmas gifts for your child.
As our highly commended Best Online Toy and Gift Retailer in the Junior Design Awards 2012, Great Little Trading Co are offering a range which should cement their reputation for beautifully crafted toys with high-end design credentials and bags of fun potential for children. In particular the vibrant and chunky Noah’s Ark Shape Sorter, £25, Masterpiece Easel, £71, and pretty-as-a-picture white Freja Dressing Table stood out as key pieces to put on Santa’s list.
Casting our minds towards the edible options on show we were instantly drawn to the delectable new selection of products from the Biscuiteers. These exquisitely detailed, luxurious hand-decorated treats would be certain to please, especially these amazing bespoke cakes in keepsake tins, the decorative reusable cloth advent calendar, £60 (with biscuits) and the wonderfully nostalgic Nutcracker Tin, £38.50, featuring all of the fairytale characters from the festive ballet in sweet crumbly biscuit form.
