Are they on a fitness kick? This great activity sensor could be just the thing they're looking for this Christmas.

If they tend to get up in the night, a night light could help to illuminate their way so they can avoid any trip hazards in their path. This clever LED night light plugs straight into the socket, but also is designed in a way that means they can still use that socket for something else.

Help them shine a light in the dark this Christmas with these Remote Control LED Lights. They're a useful way of lighting the space without having to turn on the main light (handy if it's late at night and they don't want to wake anyone else up).
