Christmas is getting closer! I know a lot of you won’t be hearing jingle bells yet but as it is now November I thought I’d pass on some of Mimimyne’s ethical gift ideas for Christmas and I’ll keep this up over November with festive ideas you might like for your family and friends.

Firstly, if you want some Christmas decorations, Mimimyne has a beautiful eco friendly Christmas tree made from recycled cardboard from award-winning designers kidsonroof. It’s an alternative Christmas tree which makes a great talking point for guests – and it won’t drop pine needles on your floor! This is not sent by Royal Mail.

The Merry Mache Nativity Set and the Merry Mache Christmas Decoration kit are fun for the whole family to decorate. These are both made using recycled and recyclable materials and come in a reusable wooden box. These are sent direct to you by courier, so no need to worry about the postal strikes.

Eco friendly board games (made from recycled materials, fully recyclable and using non-toxic inks) from Bioviva including Operation Survival, the Mission Range and Bioviva as well as wooden games like Hot Cocot from the Lil’wood range for younger children (made from certified wood) are great for involving the whole family, boys, girls and parents! Again, these are all sent by courier and will not cause any difficulties during the strikes. These board games make great gifts for families.

Creative Charlie is an eco friendly craft design company operating from East London. Again, every component of a Creative Charlie craft kit is either recycled, recyclable or reusable. Kerri Sellers, the company director, decided early on that she wanted to use materials that were
eco-friendly to create her craft kits, to introduce environmental
awareness to young children in a fun and creative way. We recommend her eco friendly Make Jewellery Kit,using beads from recycled magazines, as a fun stocking filler for a little girl.

The Twisted Twee Pine Tree and Cone tee shirt set for dad and baby in organic cotton is a sure fire winner for a new dad.
