Learning SPACE Top Christmas Toys


So it’s near that time of year again, yip it’s near Christmas time and you know what that means don’t you?
Letters to Santa have already been given the first draft in many households, all painting a magical picture of the best behaviour over the year.
But this means at some point you will need to drop what you are doing and rush to the nearest toy store and help ‘Santa’ to get in all the toys yours little ones are wishing for.
So we know you want to get your children toys that have a WOW factor, ones that will leave your little angels speechless on Christmas morning.
So we at Learning SPACE have come up with our top Christmas toys, guaranteed to captivate, inspire and WOW your child!

·        Melissa and Doug Wooden Toy Range

Up first on our Christmas top toys list is our Melissa and Doug wooden toy range. Not only do we love these beautifully crafted wooden toys but the Karadashian girls are also big fans of the range.
Mum to Mason and Penelope, Kourtney Kardashian swears by the Melissa and Doug toys and took to her own ‘Kourtney’s Mommy Blog’ to state her reasons as to why wooden toys are better:
-          Wooden toys last longer
-          Wooden toys are easier to clean
-          Wooden toys are stronger
-          Wooden toys are better for the environment
-          Wooden toys never go out of style
In store we love the Christmas range including:
