Age needs one voice. Now it has:
Age UK is the new force combining Age Concern England and
Help the Aged in England.
Find the perfect present for your grandchild, no matter what your budget. And don't forget to shop around - there are lots of cut-price promotions in the run-up to Christmas.
Depending on what you want to spend, we've come up with a variety of ideas for both boys and girls, which we know they'll enjoy unwrapping on Christmas Day.
All prices are RRP, so you might find them cheaper if you hunt around.
My Little Pony is a popular choice for little girls up to the age of 7 or 8.
These come in a range of different colour combinations and styles, so it’s a great way to start a collection and is guaranteed to please existing fans.
Who doesn't love Lego? Even adults will happily sit down and play.
This is a great introduction to Lego, with enough blocks to build a house, a helicopter or a car. Some of the pieces are quite small, so be careful with little ones.
Suitable for children aged 4+.
Moshi Monsters are just about the most popular toys around for boys and girls under the age of 10.
A pack of 5 of the very latest plastic figures will put a smile on the face of Moshi collectors everywhere.
It’s hard to beat a classic and this six-pack of eggs is a great activity toy for babies over the age of 1.
The egg shells crack open to reveal brightly-coloured chicks press-and-cheep chicks, and it also works as a shape-sorting game, making it a good educational toy.
Fans of the Angry Birds game will love this one - and it’s also a good choice for only children as they can play it by themselves.
Simply attach the target poster to the wall, then attach the bird to the launcher and he’ll fly up to 25ft.
Suitable from 6 years.
Animal lovers or aspiring vets will be delighted with this kit, which includes a plush pet and everything needed to care for it, including a pet carrier.
