This handy turntable keeps craft supplies within arms reach.

We get a bit excited at LMNOP come Christmastime because it’s the best excuse ever to go trawling for our favourite gift ideas for kids.

We’ve found a few that we just couldn’t wait to share with you. Like these cool Craft Buckets with Turntable to help keep things under control while the little geniuses are creating. The Interactive Play Rug has four delightful 3D scenes to choose from and the Rolobox wheels (shown below), are a perfect way to soup up a cardboard box. Even better, you can find them all in one place – UrbanBaby.
