RIDE ON: No-pedal balance bikes are a great gift for younger children but come in at around £100.
Instead, get a balance bike, suitable for ages three to six, for £34.99 at Wowcher.co.uk, down from £49.29.
Or at Aldi.co.uk a wooden balance bike is currently reduced from £34.99 to £19.99.
MOVE IN: A doll’s house is an investment buy that will be used by your kids for years.
At Argos.co.uk, the Sindy Doll Town House is £250.
But downscale to the more modest Asda wooden doll’s house and save £205, as it’s £45 right now.
BAKE OFF: A wooden toy kitchen is a playroom staple. Little chefs can get the Let’s Bake set, now down from £110 to £88 at The Great Little Trading Co. (gltc.co.uk).
Or save more with the Pretend ’n’ Play cooker set, £15, at Sainsbury’s. Aldi also has the Little Town kitchen for £34.99.
