Christmas toys and games keep the little ones busy through the long build-up and the day itself, so hand out a novelty toy and the wait for dinner passes a lot quicker. Fill a stocking with small pocket-money toys and sweets, drop a few in the Christmas Eve boxes, or set a family game going once the plates are cleared. Find plenty more to tuck away in our stockings and fillers and across the Christmas range. Pick a couple of quiet toys for the table too, for the stretch between courses when patience runs thin.
