These picks are guaranteed to make you the gift-giving hero, though they might be a little too big for a stocking.
1.Nintendo Alarmo
It’s not the alarm sounds that interest us here, despite cutely borrowing from several of Nintendo’s top Switch titles. It’s actually the smarts: the Alarmo watches you as you wake, soundtracking your stretches and rolls with amusing sound effects, and automatically switching itself off once it senses that you’ve made it out of bed. How cool.£90/$100,store.nintendo.co.uk

2.Polly Pocket Stranger Things compact
Certain kids, obviously, will appreciate the tiny diorama here; others will drool over the little extras. The sweet walkie-talkie outer, the dual-sided Hawkins and Upside Down scenes, the micro-scale Demogorgon sized perfectly to add a little spice to otherwise demon-free Polly Pocket sets. Bitchin’.£48/$50,creations.mattel.com

4.Gel Blaster Piranha
Not for the youngest kids, obviously – it’s a blaster, after all – but a riot for those responsible enough to fire tiny gel balls (think Orbees, sort of) at an average of 150FPS. There are 10,000 hydrate-them-yourself pellets included, 800 wet ones ready to fire on Christmas morning, and even a sensible set of safety glasses. Buy two, and go to war.£40/$60,gelblaster.comView Deal

5.Lego Nightmare Before Christmas
Intricate and clever, this Lego Ideas success is a joy to build, and packed with hidden features that you’d only know about if you were the one to assemble the ABS. We’re impressed with the design, and how well it replicates the angular feel of the classic film – though slightly less impressed with the lack of an Oogie Boogie minifig.£170/$200,lego.comView Deal
