Gifts to Keep One Amused!

Television at Christmas is usually a mix of films, 'Christmas specials' and also annoying repeats. However every year on the 25th December in the afternoon, many households across the United Kingdom gather round the box to watch the Queen's Speech. Like turkey, Christmas pudding and crackers, the Queen's message to the Commonwealth has become a traditional part of Christmas Day.
But you know how it is; after ploughing your way through Christmas dinner, which included a few token sprouts, topped off with Christmas cake and/or a slice of Yule log, it's hard to keep your festive peepers open. So as you settle on the sofa and let your belt out an inch or two, instead of everyone falling asleep and missing the Queen's speech (much to your annoyance), why not treat the family to a few extra stocking fillers from findmeagift.com to help keep you all awake?

A great way to make sure everyone stays alert is to stimulate their brains! No, I don't mean by trying to guess how many caramel kegs there ...
... are in the tin of chocolates, but by giving out the Brain Buster Puzzle Cube Pack - Set of 4 games. They make super little Christmas gifts that all of the family can enjoy. This pack of four puzzles includes a Sudoku cube, Word Puzzle cube, Snake cube and a Picture Puzzle Cube. They are guaranteed to keep you entertained (and possibly frustrated) for hours. But be warned, you may all become so engrossed in them that they might just cause you all to miss the Queen's speech again!
From one British tradition to another, you can't beat relaxing with a cup of tea. Well, after peeling mountains of vegetables, thawing the turkey out with a hairdryer and staying up late to feed the reindeers whilst Santa delivered all the presents correctly, you deserve it! So while the kids wash up, you can both commandeer your favourite spots on the couch with a cuppa in your brand spanking new Battleship Game Mug Set (a gift from Rudolph, of course!)
Not only can you take tea before the Queen but you can also enjoy a classic game of battleships! This terrific set comes with 2 mugs and 2 pens. These marvellous mugs feature a grid with which to plot your ships and play on. The aim of the game is to sink your opponent's battleship before they sink yours! The ink washes off too, so you can play over and over again. You can while away the hours as you wait in a fun and constructive way. Simply fill them up with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, eggnog or turkey soup and then let battleships commence! Who will win before HMS Queen Elizabeth takes to the high seas, er; I mean Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth takes to your TV screens!
As the Queen delivers her speech to the Nation, why not get some Christmas gifts to help keep the kids quiet? So while you watch in peace as the Queen shares with us all her own thoughts on current issues and concerns, children can draw theirs with the super cute Magic Sketch Keyring! This marvellous Magic Sketch is like a mini Etch a Sketch on a key ring and it makes superb stocking fillers. It is available in pink or green and has two knobs, one which enables you to go up and down and the other left and right. You can create miniature masterpieces or higgledy-piggledy pictures. But don't worry if you make a mess, or like a true artist you are not happy with your work, you simply shake it and start again!
