Hello, I'm just putting together some gift ideas for men, ladies, boys and girls and still working on it so take a look at what I have done so far and call again for more! Click the links for gift ideas for Grandparents, Mum & Dad, Brothers & Sisters, Boys & Girls, Husband & Wife ... the whole family! ... Including your pet!
Have you ever thought about treating mum to a 'pamper day'; imagine your mum enjoying guilt-free pleasure: a day or weekend of unwinding and relaxation. Treat your parents to a weekend in a nice hotel, look at www.itstheweekend.org for not only some bargain weekend breaks but some excellent romantic offers. Older brothers might enjoy a hot air balloon ride or flying lessons, dream car driving isn't just for boys, your sister may be delighted with a chance to drive a dream car or even a formula one racing car.
Remember it isn't what you spend, it's the thought that counts!Males of all ages often like gadgets and gizmos, boys might enjoy tricks and things that burb and fart! Girls probably prefer beauty accessories, no matter what age. Lip gels and nail varnish, perfumes and for the very young ones, toy cosmetics. Grandparents migh me more difficult but would be thrilled if their grand kids made them a nice picture, stained glass bottle ... or any art and crafts item. |

What was the most popular Christmas Gift for 2004 ?
Sales figures announced on the 26th January 2005 by Nintendo show that 2004 was a big year for handheld games in the UK with Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Advance SP having their best ever Christmas. Game Boy Advance SP became the best selling hardware over Christmas, taking the total UK Game Boy Advance sales figure to four million since it launched in June 2001. The Game Boy Advance SP was the 'must-have' Chreistmas gift for the second year in a row.
The revamped and relaunched Cabbage Patch Kids have been included in the list of popular toys for Christmas, which has been compiled by the Toy Retailers Association.
Compare this with the top sellers for 1998:
1 Furby by Tiger Electronics

3 Pro Yo II and III byTCL
4 Beanies by Ty
5 C-Watch by Toy Options
6 Talking Teletubbies by Golden Bear

But back to 2005
Bratz is currently Britain's best-selling fashion doll and recently knocked Barbie from the top spot. Barbie is missing from the list for the first time in many years.
The Toy Retailers Association predict the good old old traditional gamessuch as Buckaroo, Twister and Cluedo will also be pretty big sellers this Christmas.
History might repeat itself according to toy experts who predict some previous years top sellers are going to make a come-back.
These inclide the Tamagotchi, keyeing and pocket-sized electronic gizmos with an animated creature that "lives" on a little screen and depends on the owner to take care of it..
Power Rangers are predicted to be a hit again for Christmas too
Ben Green, chairman of the Toy Retailers Association, highlighted the number of dolls in this year's list.
"Dolls dominate the girls sector, which is worth £400 million in total, so it's no wonder the competition is hot.
"There's a real mix of must-have dolls combining retro with latest fashion and it's great to see new licences like Dora performing strongly.
"Hi-tech toys will also capture the imagination of teenagers and the big kids among us."
The full list of toys is:
Bratz (Flashback Party)
- £19.99 Cabbage Patch Kids - £19.99
Buckaroo, Twister, Cluedo between £9.99 and £14.99
Dora the Explorer (We Did It Dancing Dora) - £29.99
