The Cheese Lover's Gift Guide - Pt 3



For the kids

Because, like the family cat, they can be entertained for hours by the simplest, smelliest things.


Splurge: Jigsaw puzzle of house mouse on a block of cheese (£19/$32; amazon.co.uk), and a Chuck E. Cheese Pizza Maker Set ($17/£10; toysrus.com). Avoid being annoyed with "Is the pizza ready yet?" x a million by having them work on a puzzle while their food cooks.



Save: Squeezable cheese (Primula Cheese Spread, £1/$1.65), animal-shaped cheese (Sainsbury's Kids Organic Cheddar, 5 pieces for £3/$5), and a colored palette (aka paper plates and/or paper tablecloth) (£1/$1.65) to work on. Total: £5/$8. OMG how much fun is this? The best part is, unlike crayons, little Timmy and Sue can actually eat their art tools as they create fromage-filled scenes. So much cooler than an E-Z-Bake oven.
