If you are looking for something a little larger for the kids to have an incredible amount of fun with this Christmas, then look no further than Halfords. With a staggering amount of bikes and toys on offer to you, finding that perfect gift will be easy! One that I really like is the Electric Ride on Police Car.
This is a fantastic gift that many children will love. It is suitable for children aged 3 and over, but I think that if properly supervised, a 2 year old could manage it! It is so simple to get the hang of driving this police car. Simply, sit in the seat, put you foot on the pedal and steer! When in driving mode, the lights automatically switch on at the front of the car. And, which the kids will love, is the realistic sounds of the horn and police siren. Don’t worry though; it only has a speed of 1-2 miles per hour, so the kids cant get too far that quick!
I have two boys aged 4 and 5, and they think that this police car is the best toy they have ever had. It is shocking to see how quickly they learnt to drive it. They go from one room in the house to the other, through doors, around the kitchen table and even find huge enjoyment of driving into their Daddy’s legs! It makes them giggle so much.
The Halfords Electric Ride On Police Car is now reduced massively at only £59.99. That is saving you £65 of the original price – now that, we like!
A classic Mini on you office desk! Who would have ever thought that possible? Well, with the new Motormouse Mini Cooper Classic, you can let your imagination run wild with this Mini, as this clever little invention is a mouse for your computer. Now, that’s what I call fun.
The motormouse Mini was launched to the public after appearing on Dragon’s Den in 2009. Since then, it has become very popular, and the company has become extremely successful. With Christmas just around the corner, I will imagine that many will admire this Mini Cooper Motormouse. The Motormouse Mini can be enhanced to make it personal with the special decal stickers, which come with it. Why not personalise your number plate?
The Motormouse Mini’s hold the worlds smallest 2.4G wireless receiver with three setting options. It comes in beautiful black packaging, with a super glide mat and a soft carry pouch. The Mini itself has chrome alloy wheels and rubber tyres, and can come in red, blue or white.
I believe that this will be a fantastic gift for anyone who works at a computer desk; it is sure to liven up their work. It will be a very appreciated gift.
The Classic Mini Cooper Motormouse is priced at £32.99 and the decal sheet of stickers (£1.99) is also included. Check out http://www.motor-mouse.net for further details.
When I was first contacted regarding recycled tyre furniture and frames, I was only slightly intrigued. When I received the samples, I had a bit of a Susan Boyle moment. Furniture from recycled tyres they are, but more importantly they are stunningly stylish and certainly not what I was expecting.
The footer is a substantial wooden framed chest, layered in lengths of old tyre, smoothed and polished down. They look more leather than rubber. The old tread patterns flow along in differing patterns. It’s a beautiful and fascinating piece.
As a gift, where do you go? Petrolhead, eco warrior or maybe just a gift to yourself. A brilliant talking point, these will get you showing off!
These items have style, recycled, quirky and fun in bundles. With prices starting from £19.00, I cannot speak more highly of the re-tread range.
If you know someone with a true love for bikes then you really can’t go wrong with a pair of tickets to London’s biggest bike show at ExCeL from 4th until 7th February 2010.
I often think that buying someone an experience is far nicer than a tangible gift as such and this show will be no exception. You can expect live stunts as well as magnificent motorcycles from top manufacturers including Kawasaki, Triumph, Ducati and Victory.

The Power Sliding GTR is a truly wonderful RC car. In true Top Gear style, I took my GTR to an empty warehouse and gave this the road test of its life. The warehouse was chosen for its large test area, which was on a smooth polished concrete floor (ideal for the power sliding element).
What sets this RC car apart from any others is the motion sensitive handset (like a Wii!), so turn the handset left the GTR goes left. The only other buttons required are forward and back, which means you pick up complete control in seconds.
