Posted: 16th Dec 2009 Author: Michelle Penny Topics: Christmas
Struggling to find some stocking fillers for the kids in your life? Whether they’re your very own offspring, the sister’s kids or the lovable brats next door, here at Queeried we’ve come up with four gifts that shouldn’t stretch the budget too much, but will definitely distract them for a couple of hours at least
Painless Tattoo Parlour
There’s something about tattoos that seem really appealing to young kids which makes it a good thing it’s illegal for them to have them or we might all have grown up with Barbie and My Little Pony tattooed on ourself.. However that fact isn’t going to mean anything to them now which is why this Painless Tattoo Parlour gift should go down a treat.
Made up of 20 different tattoos from armbands to ankle bands, toe bands and even navel decorations, these are sure to have the kids in your life looking like they’ve come straight out of an Ultimate Tattoo magazine.
(Available for £4.95)
Gelli Baff
Know of some kids that hate nothing more than having a bath? Gelli Baff should persuade them otherwise because this magical stuff will turn that rather boring bath water they hate being in into goo and back again.
Available in four different colours, the goo soaks up to 400 times it’s weight and when you want it to turn back to liquid this harmless substance requires you to do nothing more than sprinkle in the dissolver powder.
Personally we don’t think it should be refined to the kids. We want some too.

Create It Bouncy Ball Kit
We don’t know about you but we loved those bouncy ball we all had when we were young. You know the ones that would end up flying off the walls, hitting the ceiling and having us scrambling about to catch it before our parents caught us..
Those were definitely cool, but kids these days have something even cooler – a kit that allows them to create these bouncy monsters from scratch! Brilliant fun to make, these require them to do little more than mix the powder with cold water, place it in the mould and wait! Educational and fun, this set makes not one, but four bits of bouncing fun.
(Available for £5.95)
Beano comic Book Maker
What’s better than having your own Beano to read? Well that would be being able to make your own from scratch obviously.
Featurng pre printed background art, this kit allows the kid in your life to create the story via a whole host of stickers in the form of characters, speech bubbles and titles. Alongside this they’ve also chucked in some colouring pens and pencils to add that real personal touch.
It may just be Beano comics today, but you mark our words (don’t literally it’s just going to end up damaging your screen) they’re be working for Marvel comics in ten years time.
(Available for £8.95)
