To help you find the perfect gift for the tech-savvy person in your life, we have rounded up our top 10 tech gifts for 2018.

1. ANKI Vector
Vector’s more than a home robot. He’s your buddy. Your companion. Most of all, he’ll make you laugh. Curious, independent, and powered by some preposterous tech and AI, he can read the room, express the weather, announce when his timer’s done (no overcooked dinner on his watch), take the perfect snapshot, and so much more.

2. Instax SQ6 Square Instant Camera-Limited Edition Taylor Swift
Give the gift of photography this Christmas and allow your recipient to take snaps of their favourite moments and cherish the memories for a long time. The Taylor Swift Edition will be a hit with a Taylor Swift fan as the camera's stylish look is inspired by the cover art of Taylor's latest album, “reputation,” and features Taylor's autograph printed on the back!

Karena's Top Toys for Christmas!

With so many Toys to choose from (we have over 50,000!) I can understand how hard it can be selecting the right gift, so I'd share a few of my personal favourites to give you some ideas that can't go wrong!

1. Kinetic Sand is one of my favourite products, it moves like a fluid but can also be moulded into shapes. Being such a tactile product is great for allowing kids to work with their fine motor skills.

I've also found that this is a very good alternate to a stress ball – very therapeutic and calming! (I keep a bowl of it on my desk!)
