Ledlenser do lights and they do them mighty well! They specialise in high performance LED flashlights and headlamps, and are among the world’s leaders in their field. Not too shabby for a couple of blokes the bank rejected in the early days, eh?

Seriously though, this tiny torch packs a punch with a beam distance of 60-metres and has a keyring attachment so Uncle Bob can either carry it around, or stash it in the console of his 4WD.

You don’t even need a tree for this hammock, nor do you need a big backyard or campsite. With the frame included, this chillax zone could just about be set up in a kid’s bedroom. Any child will be stoked to receive one of these for Christmas and whether it’s used for hours of fun* with siblings, or for a quiet reading nook, what better way is there to see out the summer holidays than lazing in a hammock?

Show us a kid who doesn’t have a ball using a walkie-talkie and we’ll give you a million bucks! Nah, just joshing, but the TX667 UHF CB Handheld Radio from GME makes a terrific gift for adventurous kids – especially older ones who like to go off exploring with others when you’re camping in a group.

Parents can relax while kids have their independence and a quick check-in radio call is all that’s needed for peace of mind. These radios are practically bombproof and are brilliant for when there’s no mobile signal. Even younger ones can have a bit of fun around camp hiding behind trees at opposite ends, or in different tents conducting secret conversations. What’s more, GME actually make rip-snorting radios and this one is a great entry-level option for adults too.
