Ok, so it’s not a toy in the strictest sense - but it is in the way that the Wii Fit is a toy, so I’m going to talk about it anyway! All contained in a cute little pink Carry Case you get a water bottle, micro-fibre towel, mini fm radio that’s also a pedometer and headphones so you can listen in!

What I’m most impressed by is that you can get all this for just £14.95! The carry case is full of pockets so you can keep your phone, membership card, spare change or whatever you need all secure while you work out. And the water bottle has a sports type spout and comes in a padded jacket to help your water cool and you can attach it to your waist with the co-ordinated belt. THEN you have the FM radio that doubles as a pedometer to count your steps and tell you how far you’ve run and how many calories you’ve burned! I think it’s an absolute bargain and perfect for any fitness conscious girl - or one who just can’t get enough of the colour pink. Available now from Prezzybox.

OK, so it’s a toy so dated it’s now ‘kitsch’ and ‘retro’, but I don’t care. I love it and I want one. It comes complete with pump and the classic funny face in a range of colours. The space hopper makers claim that this is “The new updated version of the seventies space hopper” made now for both adults and children, but when pushed on what makes it updated they told us “well, it’s bouncier”. What more can I say, the new improved space hopper is has more hop than ever before. Get one for the kids and tell them that this is what was considered the height of cool when you were their age…then play on it when they go to bed!

Available from Amazon, Findmeagift.com, and Gadget Pages in adult and kids sizes (we won’t tell if you don’t)

One of the biggest tasks for a parent is keeping their kids active and trying to stop them from becoming zombies in front of the television. Fisher-price has realised this and as a result have developed the Fisherprice Smart Cycle. The smart cycle is a safe stationary bike that plugs straight into your television allowing kids to cycle their way through various learning games.

The games all vary depending on the age of your child and are designed to develop various skills including counting, spelling, problem-solving, creativity and motor skills.
