December Edit: Winter Wonders for You & Little Ones
December has arrived, bringing with it cosy moments, festive magic and plenty of reasons to slow down and savour the season with your little ones. This month’s edit is filled with joyful outings, thoughtful gifts and winter-ready favourites — from imaginative theatre trips to snug Christmas pyjamas and creative playtime picks.
Whether you’re wrapping up warm for family adventures or settling in for quiet days at home, these Winter Wonders are here to make the season feel that little bit more special. Let’s step into the most magical month of the year, together. ✨
Disney On Ice: Find Your Hero
A magical winter outing for the whole family. Disney On Ice: Find Your Hero is touring London and other UK cities, bringing beloved characters like Moana, Elsa, and Ariel to life through dazzling skating and heartwarming stories. A perfect way to add a little festive sparkle to December.
2. Playing Out: Kidswear for Little Adventurers
If your little one loves puddle-jumping, leaf-rolling, and full-on winter mischief, Playing Out has you covered. Their water-resistant, hard-wearing boilersuits are designed for real play — colourful, durable, and made for getting muddy. Created by two parents who wanted to bring back the freedom of childhood, each piece is built to last and be passed down. A perfect gift for active little explorers this season.
3. Bluey’s Big Play: Live on Stage
Bluey, Bingo, Mum and Dad are back on tour with Bluey’s Big Play, the hit live show filled with music, puppets and plenty of Heeler-family fun. Touring 32 venues across the UK and Ireland — including a festive run at London’s Southbank Centre from 18 December to 11 January — this joyful stage adaptation is perfect for little Bluey fans.
4. Build, Balance & Create with BAVVIC
If your little one loves to build big ideas, the BAVVIC Wooden Team Set is the dream gift. This 256-piece open-ended set combines solid wooden blocks with clever silicone connectors, letting kids design towers, shapes, creatures — whatever their imagination conjures up. It’s brilliant for independent play, sibling teamwork, and those cosy winter afternoons when creativity takes over.
A beautiful, screen-free way to keep little hands busy and little minds inspired.
5. Cosy Nights in Circus Stripes
Made from beautifully soft leftover fabric, the Lennon Toy Pyjamas by Nights by Wilder are as charming as they are sustainable. Their signature circus stripe gives bedtime a playful twist, while the gentle cotton keeps little ones comfy for story time, sleep time — and all the snuggly moments in between.
They’re currently sold out (no surprise!), but more are on the way — so keep your eyes peeled if these are on your wishlist.
6. A Patchwork Adventure with Elmer
Step into a colourful festive jungle with The Elmer Adventure, a joyful live adaptation of David McKee’s much-loved Elmer books. Little ones are invited to join three adventurers as they transform their campsite into a world of music, puppetry and playful storytelling — all in search of a very special patchwork elephant.
With toe-tapping tunes, gentle humour and a heartwarming celebration of uniqueness, this feel-good show is perfect for ages 3+ (and grown-ups too). Catch it at Soho Theatre Walthamstow from 20 December – 4 January.
7. The Nutcracker: But Make It Silly
This Christmas, Little Bulb brings their Olivier-nominated, wonderfully wacky version of The Nutcracker to the West End. Packed with cardboard magic, musical mice, clever comedy and a joyful London twist, this reimagined classic follows two bickering siblings on a fantastical festive adventure into The Mousey Realm.
Perfect for ages 5–12 (and any grown-ups who love a good giggle), it’s a feel-good, music-filled treat for the whole family.
8. Winter Nights in Morning Marvels
uper-soft, breathable and oh-so cosy — the Morning Marvels Tencel Modal PJs are the perfect base layers for chilly mornings, snug nights and winter holidays (hello, ski breaks!). Made from gentle, sustainably sourced Tencel modal, they feel dreamy against little ones’ skin and are soft enough to sleep, lounge and layer in all winter long.
A winter wardrobe staple that keeps comfort front and centre.
9. Le Toy Van Hair Care Set: Party-Ready Playtime
his charming wooden Hair Care Set by Le Toy Van is perfect for little ones who love to “get ready” just like the grown-ups. With beautifully crafted pretend straighteners, accessories and a touch of sparkle, it’s ideal for festive dress-up, party-prep role play, and those sweet moments of imaginative beauty salon fun.
10. Selfridges x Disney: A Most Magical Christmas
This Christmas, Disney sprinkles its magic across Selfridges with enchanting window displays, exclusive festive collections and delightfully nostalgic touches throughout the store. Expect sparkle, character moments and plenty of holiday wonder — a perfect day out for little Disney fans (and grown-ups too).
As we wrap up this month’s festive favourites, we hope these cosy picks and magical outings bring a little extra warmth and wonder to your winter days. Wishing you and your little ones a December filled with joy, calm moments, and memory-making magic. Here’s to a beautiful season ahead. ✨
