It’s The Annual ’12 Days of an ELC Christmas’! On the 5th Day… Win a Toybox Musical Adventure Bus!

Screen Shot 2014-11-15 at 18.59.32

Climb aboard the Toybox bus for a musical adventure.

The Toybox musical adventure bus comes with two Toybox characters, Ellie Elephant and Ralph Rabbit, plus there is also room for four more Toybox friends to join them on their trip (other characters available separately). The friendly bus can be used for two different modes of play. Either press on his steering wheel and he will drive along the floor, playing one of the four fun tunes and moving his eye as he travels. Alternatively little ones can help the bus along, and push it around the room, wherever they choose for freewheeling fun.

So how to win the Toybox Musical Adventure Bus for Christmas? Well, you have just 24 hours to complete as many of the options below as you like. It’s easy…

NOW CLOSED

 See you tomorrow for Day 6!

A 70's child, I’ve been married for a Very Long Time, and appear to have made four children, and collected one large and useless dog along the way. I work, I have four children, I have a dog… ergo, I do not do dusting or ironing. I began LittleStuff back in (gulp) 2004. I like huge mugs of tea. And Coffee. And Cake. And a steaming cone of crispy fresh fluffy chips, smothered in salt and vinegar. #healthyeater When I grow up I am going to be quietly graceful, organised and wear lipstick every day. In the meantime I *may* have a slight butterfly-brain issue.

This is basically my proof that Father Christmas is real, because who else could have found such a randomly specific item in the pre-internet days? :)

  74. Not the best Christmas present but the one I’ll never forget is the coloured pop socks my Godmother gave me. I sneaked a peep before Christmas and managed to get the paper off without ripping, got the socks out and, never having seen sheer socks before, thought they were stockings! (My mum wore stockings so what did I know!). I put the socks on and stretched till they reached up to my thighs, then heard my mum coming so hurriedly stuffed them back in the packet and re-wrapped. On Christmas morning when I unwrapped these again and took them out – who was busted?

  201. I very rarely got the presents I picked out of magazines as a kid, but must have been when I was about 9, I picked out this gorgeous teddy called “jessie” from a catalogue and Santa delivered him. I still have him even now, although I re-named him ‘best bear’ because I thought it was the best gift ever! Sadly his head is starting to fall off and he doesn’t have much fluff left but he’s still the best!

He used to keep the cardboard boxes eggs came in and at Christmas, he would come home after a late shift on Christmas Eve, and while we were in bed, he’d make us something from the boxes. My sister & I got the doll’s house and my brother got a garage. They meant more to us as they were home-made presents xxx
