Below we take a look at the top 5 unusual gifts for children which are designed to educate, inspire or to just make them laugh...

1.       Crazy Shower Caps

1.    Children (especially little boys) can be somewhat shower-shy at times, so encourage them to have regular washes with the fun and funky Little Devil Shower Cap, Moo Cow Shower Cap or the super cute Raspberry Beret Shower Cap. These unique shower caps are designed to make showering fun for them and less of a hassle for you as they will keep your children’s hair dry. Unusual gifts for children don’t get more practical than these!

2.       Retro Sweet Jar

2.    Sweets may not seem like such an unusual gift for children but this sweet jar features only the best in retro sweets, including favourites like Love Hearts, Sweet Bananas and Jaw Breakers. Your kids will soon be making loads of new friends at school when they share the playground favourites in the Retro Sweet Jar with their class mates (that is if they don’t eat them all themselves first!)

3.       Games Mugs

3.    Problem solving has never been so much fun as with these brain-busting games mugs, featuring the Squares Games Mug and Four in a Row Games Mug. Both mugs come complete with dry-wipe pens so your kids can get started with some brain training over their evening cocoa.

4.       IQ Brain Train Game

4.    The IQ Brain Train Game is the ideal back to school gift for children as it’s entertaining and educational, so it will help them get back into the swing of schoolwork in no time. This mind stretching little box contains loads of puzzles designed to train the brain and it is the ideal unusual gift for teenagers who want extra brain power to pass their exams.

5.       Antworks Space Habitat

5.    Creepy crawly little ants may not be everyone’s idea of a treat but Antworks Space Habitat, a fascinating present, is certainly an education and unusual gift for children. These industrious ants live in a space age habitat based on a NASA experiment designed to study ants in micro-gravity. As your kids watch the ants at work they will be able to apply what they see to loads of school subjects such as biology, physics and even sociology!
