PADDINGTON’S TEA SET
It’s time for tea with Paddington! A super cute cuddly Paddington soft toy along with a colourful tea set all packaged in a suitcase with stickers to personalise!

Dr Amanda Gummer's Expert Tips...
A wonderful tea set for any Paddington fan all thoughtfully packed inside its own suitcase, along with a cuddly plush version of the bear himself. Our testers engaged with this product right away and couldn’t wait to start setting up their tea party with Paddington. Paddington’s tea set encourages imaginative play, promotes sharing and turn taking and develops social interaction and conversation between children and their peers.
Cube Fun
A variety of differently themed soft plush cubes designed to get children moving and using their imaginations

Dr Amanda Gummer's Expert Tips...
These brightly coloured foam filled cubes act as the dice in this fun exercise game. Each side of the cube has an engaging picture and instruction, such as ‘Jump like a lion’ or ‘Gallop like a horse’ to encourage children to get moving.
MICRO SCALEXTRIC JAMES BOND 007 RACE SET
Ready. Set. Go! Children can pretend to be James Bond as they race Aston Martins around the micro sized track

Dr Amanda Gummer's Expert Tips...
Our younger testers needed some support to set up the track, but the older ones managed on their own and found the letter coded pieces really helpful. They loved racing the cars around the track as quickly as they could, and through trial and error worked out how best to use their controller to prevent the cars being derailed. The lap counter/booby trap was a popular feature but needed to be adjusted. However, this didn’t take away any of the fun.
QUICKBUILD TRANSPORT FOR LONDON NEW ROUTEMASTER
An early introduction to Airfix models for children. A brick based London Bus building kit without the need for glue or paint.

Dr Amanda Gummer's Expert Tips...
Our testers were excited to build this visually appealing vehicle and soon realised they needed to focus, think logically, and work through the instructions systematically to achieve the outcome they wanted. The children teamed up to build the model together which gave them the chance to develop their communication and social skills as they came up with a plan of action and overcame obstacles together. Building sets like this are great for helping to strengthen muscles in the hands, wrists, and arms, and for building children’s manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination.

Dr Amanda Gummer's Expert Tips...
