We’ve been having lots of fun here with a kit we received from Hawkin’s Bazaar, so I’m sharing that with you today, along with some other fun gifts and toys I’ve spotted over there. And then, as I realise I’ve then probably tempted you, I also have a give-away so that one of you can win a £20 Hawkin’s Bazaar gift voucher – seems only fair!
So first up, we have been loving playing with Dough Heads.
Make funny faces with this comprehensive dough modelling set. The main blob of dough can be given flowing golden locks of dough ‘hair’, made with the easy-to-use hair extruding gadget. The addition of interchangeable plastic accessories will make the quirky dough character complete. Includes four pots of brightly-coloured modelling clay and over 25 fun accessories including hats, shoes, eyes, ears, and mouths. Great play value and scope for endless possibilities.
The kids have had this out to play so many times since we received it, and I have noticed that the Husband also seems to enjoy creating little Dough Heads along with them, too! It’s so simple for my 2 year old to play and enjoy, yet has appeal for all ages. It is fun to sit and make the characters, and as well as the fun that they have making them, they then play with them and make up stories about them.
Dough Heads is currently priced at £15.
I was impressed with the range of crafts for kids that they have over there, as kits like these are always going to be a hit in our house. I also like…
Make Your Own Sock Puppets, Sand Art Creatures & Paint Your Own Russian Dolls
Other fun games and gifts that I’ve spotted over there include….
Mug with Magnets, Butterflies Magic Sculpture, Spacebot 3000, Darth Vader Look a Lite, Robo Fish with Castle and Coral, Monster Feet
There are so many great gift ideas there, with handy filters to help you shop, such as ‘retro gifts’, ’21st birthday gifts’, ‘gifts for boys’ and so on, along with the Gift Finder tool, allowing you to key in details such as the recipients age, personality, gender and your budget. A very easy to shop to shop at!
Now, as promised, I have a £20 Hawkin’s Bazaar gift voucher available for one of my readers to win. To be in with a chance, use the rafflecopter below to enter. The give-away closes at 12am on 8th June 2015 and is open to UK entrants only.
