Why are Jellycat toys popular for Christmas presents?

As the stores fill with giftsets and everyone seems to be making lists, we are all thinking ahead to Christmas gifting.

Why not get yourself out of your usual shopping slump and give a new brand for Christmas – Jellycat soft toys?

Designed for children of all ages, from 1-92, and of all interests – are you sleeping on the ideal Christmas gift this festive season?

Shopping for Christmas? Choose Jellycat

Despite our best intentions, we all seem to fall into the same habits as Christmas rolls around the corner – beer for Dad, perfume for Mum, and a mishmash of stocking stuffers for your sister… We get it.

But this Christmas, Jellycat can help you break the habits of a lifetime and even get ahead of the rush – leaving you free to smugly sip mulled wine at a Christmas market while everyone else rushes around.

So, why choose Jellycat?

Safe from birth

Most people assume that as soft toys are given to babies and toddlers to play with, they are all safe for that age range.

But this, worryingly, is not the case.

Many thousands of soft toy brands are marketed directly to our littlest loved ones and are only deemed as suitable for ages 3 and up – thanks to the use of small parts that can fall off and become choking hazards.

All toys from the Jellycat range are different.

Unless directly specified otherwise in the included safety recommendations or suitability information, such as the hangtag, all Jellycat branded toys are suitable from birth, with no upper age limit.

They are also CE- and UKCA-marked to show they meet the stringent European and UK safety standards respectively.

All of these can help you to rest easy, knowing that your chosen gift isn’t a safety nightmare in disguise.

UK brand

Supporting British brands and retailers is an increasing tradition across the country, and one that many more consumers than ever will be considering come Christmas 2023.

In their 2022 survey, Make it British found that our consumer habits have started to change since the pandemic and Brexit, with:

• 69% of those surveyed said they are more likely to buy British
• Up to 20% stated they would pay more for British goods
• 80% reported that they would prefer to buy UK-made goods from an independent shop or small business

If this is something that you believe in, you can support British brands by purchasing characterful and adorable soft toys and plushies from brands like Jellycat.

The brand sells through trusted official suppliers, like Jeremy’s Home Store, which gives consumers the peace of mind and certainty they are buying official products as well as providing a range of shopping options – including a store for browsing in Tunbridge Wells and an online storefront for those who live further away.

Quirky and unique

Jellycat combines unusual and imaginative with luxurious fabrics, creating ranges that speak to customers of all ages and persuasions.

This includes plushies of practically endless varieties!

So, if you are looking for a gift for your awkward vegan bestie, your gardening-obsessed Dad, your coffee-fuelled brother, or your newest niece or nephew – Jellycat has you covered.

This now vast range includes:

• Bashfuls – a collection of soft and endearing animals like bunnies, dragons, and puppies
• Amusables – an ensemble of daft but delightful characters, of almost any type
• Fuddlewuddles – a deep-pile, textured range
• Littles – all your favourites, just smaller
• Tumbletufts – a fuzzy, low-pile selection
• Blossoms – a carefully created range of blossom-printed bunnies
