Clear the way for this year’s Christmas toys
Posted on | November 29, 2009 | No Comments
If you have children, and particularly if they are under 10 years old, chances are that your house contains more toys than your kids know what to do with. A pre-Christmas clear out is the perfect way to de-clutter the house (and your mind) and make way for Santa’s imminent deliveries.
Most kids have one or two favourite toys and then lots of toys that practically never get played with. So instead of hanging on to them, why not gather the least favourite toys up and take them to a local charity or orphanage. Many charitable organizations arrange for toys to be distributed to children at Christmas, and I for one will be taking advantage of this to create some well needed space and harmony in my house!
In an attempt to maintain a de-cluttered home, I have decided this year to adopt a ‘less is more’ attitude towards Christmas. I want my children to enjoy the festive season, but I would also like them to have a sense of appreciation for the things they receive. When faced with a mountain of toys, I think all sense of appreciation is lost. So I will be carefully choosing items that a) I hope they will find hugely enjoyable, b) are built to last and c) encourage healthy play.
The Plasmacar, for me, fits the bill on all counts. My children are aged 4 and 5 and this is the perfect Christmas gift. I am sure that they will have many hours of fun with it, and having ridden one myself, can vouch for the high quality construction and durable materials, so I know it’s a toy that will last. I think that they will have to have one each, however, to avoid any fights, but I think this will be a worthy investment, and even more so considering that the adults can enjoy it too. Roll on Christmas!
