Christmas shopping for kids and teens can be one of the most stressful times of the year for parents, but there's no need to sacrifice quality for budget or your children's personal preferences. These chosen products offer value for money by promoting relaxation in a fun and encouraging way for youngsters, in a way that will delight children and parents alike.

Coming in a range of patterns for both girls and boys, as shown in this Christmassy hygge bear design, the sheets will delight kids and help make bedtime more fun and encouraging for all.
Hydration is a must for kids and teens alike - helping to provide energy, healthy skin, and better brain power for school. Getting the recommended 1-2 litres a day is a must to achieve these benefits for growing up healthy, strong, and alert. Chilly's water bottles are a fun, safe way to help achieve that goal. Made from rust-resistant stainless steel, these 750ml bottles are ideal for school and university days, with their light weight and cup-holder-friendly size making them easy to transport while traveling and fit into bags.

When closed by the easy screw-top lid, the bottles are 100% spill-proof and condensation resistant, preventing mess and damage of schoolbooks, laptops, and other precious study essentials.
Blue light, found in computer, phone, and tablet screens, can cause eye irritation, headaches, and problems sleeping. For teens and kids who spend hours on screens studying and entertaining themselves, excess blue light exposure may cause delays in falling asleep and achieving a quality, deep rest, causing tiredness in the waking hours. Developed with the help of optometrists, Ocushield screen protectors can help to improve sleep and prevent eye strain, offering a money-back guarantee within 100 days if uneffective. The tempered glass screens can protect the screen from drops, spillages, and sticky figners, too.
Kids are frequently targeted by marketing online for skincare fads and trends, making the teaching of self-care and hygiene more confusing - and expensive - than it needs to be.

The set includes a Marine Facial Cleanser, Algae Plump Serum, Eco Marine Cream, and Eye Bright Eye Cream. Used in conjunction with one another, the kit's cleanser will help clean the skin and hydrate both oily and dry skin types with all-day protection and moisturisation. The serum and eye cream can tackle puffiness for irritable skin and reduce dark circles for the more nocturnal teens.

Lumie alarms are designed to ease sleepers awake, and ultimately, help users create an ideal sleeping/waking schedule - which is one of the toughest things for a parent to establish with their children. Using light therapy technology and a low-blue light, anti-stimulation lighting, Lumie lights mimic the natural light of a sunrise and sunset in the bedroom over a 30-minute process where it becomes gradually brighter, helping to ease the transitioning into both sleep and waking up the next morning.
