Child size acoustic guitar for under £40

If you want to encourage your child's musical ability then it's never too early to get them interested in playing a musical instrument. The problem with getting a guitar for a child is that guitars which are small enough for a child are often little more than toys. The Mini Acoustic Guitar from The Original Gift Company though is a real playable child sized acoustic guitar with a proper wooden body ( not plastic ), proper nylon strings ( these are easier on the fingers than steel strings) and proper tuning pegs.

The Original Gift Company are selling this mini child sized guitar for £39.95 which is excellent value. The guitar comes together with an instructional manual, a "gig" bag, extra strings and tuning pipes. This would make a great Christmas or birthday present.

Radio Controlled Wasp

Boys just go wild for radio controlled toys and flying radio controlled toys in particular are very popular. Usually these rc toys tend to be either helicopters or planes but there are some more unusual and interesting radio controlled models that you can get if you are looking for a more unusual flying present. The Radio Controlled Wasp from The Original Gift Company
retails at £39.95 currently ( although its always worth checking the current prices as these may change).

This particular radio controlled flying model is only just over eight inches long and can be controlled over a distance of around 15 metres. This rc wasp is suitable even for younger boys ( or girls) over the age of about 8 or so and they are not difficult to fly. they will give hours of fun as they zoom the wasp around the house.

Remember that most of these very small rc models are only really suitable for flying indoors. If you are looking for something that will fly outdoors then you should go for a more substantial rc model aircraft.
