6. Griffin MyPhones

We were sent a pair of these to trial. MyPhones are designed for kids 3-8 yrs old, special care has been taken on the comfort and safety of MyPhones – they cap the volume at 85 decibels which is the safe level for children. I was really impressed with the packaging and design, you can change the colour of the ear casing and they arrive in a little carry case. Erin loves them, she mostly uses them for the laptop games but I think Santa might be bringing a cheap cd player for christmas

7. Jamie Magazine Subscription

Love the Jamie magazine (I’ve asked for it myself!). It’s bi-monthly which seems to ensure the quality, the recipes aren’t regurgitated and there are feature length articles on various food related topics. I particularly like the non glossy feel of the pages, it’s almost like a paperback book. I never keep food magazines but these have pride of place on my shelf

8. Samsung MP3

I want one! That is all

9. Joe Browns

So many cool clothes, not sure if they have bricks and mortar stores, but I have the catalogue

10. Snow White on DVD

I woke up to the tuneful singing of Snow White the other morning and remembered just how good it was. They’ve done some of their techy magic with this and released it on blu-ray ready for christmas. Worth a look if you fancy going retro (ps we were sent a copy for free, not bragging, just letting you know for disclosure an’ aw that)
