There's still time to pick up those Christmas stocking stuffers for the kids, and we're making it easier with our age-appropriate gift guide - from babies to teens and everyone in between!
The holiday season is in full swing in Singapore and everyone seems to be getting into the Christmas spirit. The shopping mecca, Orchard Road, is alight with its annual spectacular light display and there’s a Christmas tree on every street corner. And you know what that means? It’s time to stock up on Christmas stocking fillers and start ticking off your shopping list around Singapore!
Here at HoneyKids HQ, we had a little discussion about whether Santa exists (sure, he does) and how exactly he sneaks all those presents under the Christmas tree. Especially since most houses don’t have chimneys and the garbage chute doesn’t allow sacks past a certain size… So, we’ve put together a Christmas stocking filler gift guide, grouped by age, to make ol’ Saint Nick’s job a little easier (you’re welcome, ‘Santa’).
