So you know I love buying Christmas gifts for people, sometimes in can be tough to find the right thing though.

As I mentioned earlier, I love the idea of giving something that someone wants, something they need and then a little something to eat or drink. It keeps the gift giving under control and means the recipient gets a lovely mix of things.

I’ve already covered, eat and drink ideas for you, today is all about things people want.

We have a range of balls at home, we even keep one in the boot of each car for impromptu play opportunities. But on the wish list for a while has been a good quality leather ball. As we love a bit of crafty fun too Scriball is perfect. A small leather ball that comes decorated with monsters and scribbles, a mini pump (which is super handy in it’s own right) and a set of pens so you get to create your own masterpiece. There are three different Scriballs to collect with different cartoon characters – Oodles (the goalie), Mumbos (the strikers) and Zongs (the defender). It £10 they are great value and are available from Mitre.com and Amazon.
