The Drummond Park Stephen Mulhern magic kig is down from £14.99 to only £6 on Amazon. This, of course, comes with free delivery and a very tasty saving of £8.99 off the original price. This would make an ace addition to any Present Cupboard.

This magic set is a great way for budding magicians to learn from ITV’s Stephen Mulhern. Kids over the age of eight will have no problem reading the instructions and learning these astonishing card, coin and ball tricks.

Make cards disappear up your sleeve, astound with the self opening matchboxes, reveal sweets in a closed box and uncover the mystery of the folding note. There are enough gigs and tricks in here to make little magic monsters have hours of fun and the price is pretty near perfect too.

Even adults will have fun trying out some of these tricks I reckon and I am so nabbing this for when my daughter is the right age.

The Book People may have the worst service ever but they do have lots and lots of lovely book bargains to enjoy. Today they are selling two books of magical recipes – Disney Princess and Winnie the Pooh – for £2.99 including delivery.

The cookbooks include recipes such as Belle’s Dainty Cupcakes or Pooh’s Yummy Honey Cakes (yum) and includes stories to make the baking move nice and smoothly. Children can also record their cooking successes and create their own recipes.

These books are great for teaching kids how to enjoy cooking and to be proud of what they have made so far. I am particularly impressed with the fact that they are wipe clean. Nice.

Argos has reduced the fancy and extremely cool Spykee Vox Interactive Robot to £32.99. It used to cost £99.99 so you are paying a lot less than half price for a very cool toy that kids will absolutely love. And parents too…

He has an alarm clock function and he needs six AA batteries and three AAA batteries none of which are included. Ideal for kids over the age of eight, he is a monster robot gizmo.

So, what is this Character Building Royal Navy Assault thingy? Well, apparently your kids can become experts on amphibious warfare with this Royal Navy construction playset that features an assault rib and loading dock. Landing crafts are capable of carrying up to eight Royal Marines Commandos with full kit at full speed.

Your mission is to get your commandos to their destination so they can disembark and secure the area. The set comes with one microfigure wearing a patrol vest and assault rifle and it is suitable for kids over the age of five. Is it just me who thinks this looks a lot like Lego?

Thanks to wishihadadonkey at HUKD!

Argos has marked this adorable My First Lego set down from £9.99 to £6.99 which is a saving of 25% off the original price. This is a perfect introduction to the wonderful world of Lego building fun and is ideal for tots over the age of four.

• Click here to get some Lego from Argos

The My First Lego set features regular and shaped Lego bricks including windows, a door, a minifugure, wheels, a propeller and a special building plate. Children can follow the instructions to build a house, car, helicopter and plenty more.

These sets are really good for helping children to develop creativity and explore their imaginations, and to teach them how to entertain themselves for a while. Lego is such a family staple nowadays that I am not sure how people survived without it!

Spend some time with your tots, building and creating whole worlds, or let them loose to make their own superb creations.

Oooh, now this is a low price deal that any Toy Story fan will love. The Toy Story Buzz Lightyear talking projection alarm clock is down from £29.99 to only £9.99 at Amazon, that’s a saving of 67% and £20 off the original price!

The alarm clock also amazingly projects the time against the bedroom ceiling and says some stock Buzz Lightyear phrases too. He’ll say things like To Infinity and Beyond or This is an intergalactic emergency!

A brilliant price for a great doodad and perfect for adding to the present cupboard – I’ve already nabbed two of them for mine.

These reward kits for kids are a genius investment in my view, especially as they get older and increasingly stubborn about doing their chores. The children’s reward packs at Aldi are only £1.99 per pack and are a brilliantly cheap investment in their future good behaviour.

• Click here to get rewarded with Aldi

The children’s reward packs at Aldi come with a chart that’s smothered in pretty pictures and has stars and stickers that can be added as they do well in their chosen areas. I find that my daughter is responding really well to her reward chart and will definitely be nabbing some of these.

The other reason these are great as kids get older is that bad behaviour can see you removing a sticker too. We have a chart that has both a good and bad column so if she gets five good stars she gets a surprise, and five bad stars mean she loses a toy.

There's a buy one get one free (BOGOF) offer on all LeapFrog software at Toys R Us at the moment. Have a look if you've got any LeapFrog devices. For example, this would be a saving of £19.99 if you have a Leapster.

• Click here for LeapFrog software at Toys R Us

All you have to do is select two LeapFrog items. When you checkout, the cost of the lowest priced item will be deducted. This deal ends on the 28th of January.

Many of the software cartridges were out of stock for home delivery when I checked, although you could still get them using the Click and Collect option. That's only useful if you're able to get to a store though.

However, there were programs like Ben 10 for the Tag Reader and Dora the Explorer still available for delivery as well as collection. These titles cost £12.97 each so that's a good saving.

The Zumba Fitness game for the Xbox 360 is very popular and at one point you couldn’t get a copy for love or money. However, the game didn’t get great reviews if I am honest so it was a lot of hype for something not quite there. Still, paying £19.99 for a game that usually costs £39.99 is a good deal.

• Click here to get Zumba with The Hut eBay Outlet

The Zumba Fitness DVD pairs the red hot international dance steps with sexy Latin music to create a fun and ultra fitness party on your console. You follow along as your Zumba instructor guide you through routines that will have you burning fat while having fun.

The instructors are fan favourites Tanya and Gina with the creator of Zumba, Beto, and they will show you more than 30 different routines as you go. You can learn in nine different dance styles too: Reggaeton, Merengue, Salsa, Cumbia, Hip-Hop, Mambo, Rumba, Flamenco and Calypso.

I am faintly horrified that anyone would have spent nearly £20 on a digital coin jar, regardless of the Hello Kitty branding on it. Why do you even need one? However, for £5.99, this is a pretty cool gimmicky gadget and one that would make a great gift.

• Click here to get Hello Kitty at Argos

The Hello Kitty digital coin jar keeps a record of how much pocket money is being saved. It is a good way to help kids learn about managing their money or recognising what the different coins actually look like and what their value is. From that point of view this is a great buy.

Not for £20 though…

Anyway, the Hello Kitty coin jar will need you to add two AAA batteries (use rechargeables and save the planet!) and I think, by looking at the picture, it recognises the coins and adds the amount automatically. Cute and great for pocket money, this is a rather sweet bargain.

This is a great deal from Argos with the 1500 piece craft activity set marked down from £29.99 to only £12.99. That’s less than half price for a ton of cool bits and pieces that you can use to make all sorts of ace things.

You also get googly eyes, beads and polyballs. The set description says it is suitable for kids over the age of six but I remember crafting with my daughter when she was only three and she loved it! While this is one messy pressie, it is really good for spending quality time together and having lots of fun at the same time.

Now this is a deal you don’t see very often and is absolutely brilliant for parents and kids alike. If you don’t yet have a Xbox, then this could be the moment for you. Down to £154.98 including delivery thanks to the tasty code below, this Xbox 360 250GB console is a catch.

• Click here to get playing with the Microsoft Store

This particular Xbox offers a ton of storage, works with the Kinect, and can be used to keep fit, have fun as a family, and entertain the kids (and you!) on those cold and wet days and nights. The code you need to get 25% off the price shown on the site is a doozy: MYMS25SAVING.

The console has Wi-Fi built in for easier connection, you can stream movies and TV as well as download and store movies to watch whenever you like, and there are a lot of games to choose from. If this particular console is too much, try the 4GB console for £117.48 using the same code.

This would make a great little creative gift for a birthday party out there this month. Down from £7.49 to £3.99, the Mould & Paint Glitter Mermaid Plaster kit looks like a lovely idea and something to keep little fingers busy in the cold months.

• Click here to get mouldy with Amazon

The Mould & Paint glitter mermaid kit lets you make your very own glitter mermaids. The pack comes with a single mould and six different mermaid designs and materials to make six magnets or badges.

You mix the plaster and pour it into the moulds and wait for it to set. Then you use the included paints to decorate the mermaids and then sprinkle some glitter on them to bring some sparkle to the whole affair. And that’s it! Lots of mess a little bit of fuss and plenty of fun.

These sets are suitable for kids over the age of five and would make great presents for the round of 2012 birthday parties.

This is pretty good for a freebie as kids get to download and enjoy a bunch of Lion King things and goodies for free without having to first spend any money gathering points. These are part of the Disney Rewards scheme but are totally free.

• Click here to get free rewards from Disney

The free items that you can download and print include a Lion King activity sheet series that has a colouring in page, a spot the difference, some word games and more. This is great for long journeys or entertaining the kids on a rainy afternoon.

Next up in the freebie line-up is the Lion King bookmarks that you can print out for the kids to use in their books. I recommend sticking them to cardboard first. Then the Lion King Buffet and Smoothie maker is the free kit that gives you recipes to make and have fun with, like edible bugs to freak out their friends.

The Vtech soft singing phone in yellow is down to £4.99 which is less than half the original price of £10.19. This is a fab learning toy for little ones and has all sorts of cool features for them to play with and enjoy.

The Vtech soft singing phone is non-breakable, designed to withstand a lot of abuse from tiny fingers. It is designed to (apparently) promote self awareness, while the fabric and plastic invites tactile exploration. There is also a non-breakable mirror which they can stare at for hours.

The Vtech soft singing phone is brightly coloured in yellow and red and other similar primary colours and has flashing lights to enchant the little one. The phone also comes with fun phrases, phone sounds and animal sound effects that will encourage their awareness and exploration of the world around them.

The phone comes with the two AA batteries required and you can reserve it instore so as to avoid paying delivery charges.
