Julia Eccleshare's comment:
Play along with Father Christmas and friends in this fantastic interactive magnetic book. Parents and children can read the simple sentences and drop in the right magnets to the page according to the story. Then at the end children can create their own story in a wonderful fold-out spread. This will be a real favourite both for parent and child and provide hours and hours of entertainment. The book is incredibly sturdy and there’s even a closable area to ensure the magnets are kept safe when not in use.
