These little brushes may look small, but they work wonders and application is perfect, as you would expect from an ecoTOOLS product. Available from retailers and ecotools.com.
For the Kids – Shuffle Connect 4 and Game of Life Card Games (£6.99 each)
Connect 4 has to be one of those classic games any member of the family can play, it really is the perfect Christmas game. However, you may think that the traditional Connect 4 game is a little large and not quite right for a stocking. Well, luckily, the lovely people at Shuffle have created a range of classic games in card form.
The Shuffle Connect 4 is an equally excited version of the traditional game, but it comes in card version and is perfect for travelling, the car and those Christmas stockings! Suitable for ages 6+ with 2-4 players, the aim of the game is to be the first person to complete four Connect 4 missions. Cards must be laid out side by side to make a connection of 4, plus, there are special tiles which grant you extra goes and other funky twists.
There are also three other variation ways of playing our Shuffle Connect 4 for Young Players, Open Missions and Double Handed. The winner of the game is the first player to complete four missions!

For The Traveller – Colgate® ProClinical® Pocket-Pro® (£69.99)
This is a great little device and one that we would highly recommend for those who travel, use the gym or who just like to have a toothbrush just in case! Super slim, easy to stowaway and a great performer too!
You may expect that the smaller tooth brush size means that you get less of a clean. However, that is not the case at all! The brush delivers over 25,000 strokes per minute and the results are fantastic for a device so compact. As is common with a lot of electronic toothbrushes, the two minute timer and 30 second quadrant pacer ensures that you clean your teeth for the correct length of time recommended by dental professionals.
On a practical note, the device can be charged using the USB carry case, which is super portable and very convenient. No more struggling to find a shave point here!
