Hamleys Toys at Heathrow Airport: bus and taxi toys, drawing or drumming



Problem
What can I buy?

Answers
If you have a child in tow, or expect to see one over Christmas, you can pick up some nifty toys at Heathrow airport.

Hamleys
If you missed out on shopping in London's department stores, you have another chance to buy at Heathrow airport.

 What's moving? Happily hop. Mesmerising.

Ok, but how much?



I saw a delightful variety of London and UK souvenirs. I loved the toy taxis and buses.



Christmas stockings, of course. They used to be red. Now you can get green. Where's the blue?


Drum Kit
Right at the front, ready for you to try them out, the drum kit and drawing board. somebody else drumming attracted my attention.

I already have the electronic fold up horizontalI bought one along with a fold up piano for my humorous stand up comedy act. A drum kit would be great for a child, or teenage, a composer of music or songs, an adult wanting to relieve stress. On the other hand, if you want to sleep, do yoga, or even cook without distraction, somebody else drumming away could be a nuisance. No point in giving children or adults, whistles and musical instruments and drum kits unless you are happy to hear them playing away day or night, and you are confident it won't annoy the neighbours. If so, go ahead.



To good an opportunity to miss. I must say that about £20 seems a reasonable price.

Drawing Board With Concealed and Revealed Colours
Their other try out kit was cheaper, about twelve pounds something. A children can draw on an black plastic imitation slate and reveal the colours underneath. If that stops them drawing on the walls and keeps the sitting on one place, it has to be good. Whatever is drawn on the board can be erased, corrected, replaces. No mess.



That's just four toys which caught my eyes. soft toys, taxi toys, bus toys, sound toys, jumping toys, a drum kit, a drawing board, a Christmas stocking. There's lots more. Just the thing for last minute shopping.

Can I just say what a relief to discover somebody that really knows what they're discussing online. You definitely understand how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More people should check this out and understand this side of your story. I can't believe you are not more popular given that you definitely possess the gift.
