Writing in a diary or journal is an excellent way to keep memories, organise your thoughts and keep a record of important things. There are plenty of world-famous diaries (not so secret now) with the most famous probably being The Diary of Anne Frank and then fictional diaries like The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾.The first is brand. Looking at the brand of the product is often a really good indicator for judging product quality. For example you’d expect a much higher quality product from a brand known for providing excellent quality than you would from an unknown or even a budget brand. Keeping a secret diary or journal is a great way for children to express themselves, build emotional resilience (by helping them to process their thoughts and feelings etc.) and also helps them to explore and use language. They are also excellent for young children to practice handwriting and writing skills. It is something that should be encouraged more and makes a great gift.

If the brand you buy is important to you, our best advice is to spend some time writing up your own list of ideal brands. That way when you come to the point where you’re comparing product options you can filter to only show the products from brands in your list. More information on quality can be found in this old but still very helpful article from Harvard Business Review.

IDEAL GIFT FOR CHILDREN: This electronic learning toy is the perfect gift for girls and boys as they engage in creative play while encouraging literacy and counting skills that will be helpful in the future As you can imagine, pricing is one of the most important factors of any purchasing decision. We can find the perfect product for our needs, that fits the brief in every single way. But if it doesn’t fit our budgets, we simply can’t (or at least shouldn’t) buy it.Just before we get into the detail of analysing the price of this product, we want to briefly highlight the importance of setting yourself a budget before you spend too much time shopping around for a suitable product. It’s all too often that we get carried away when shopping and find ourselves buying a fantastic product, but probably actually overdelivers on what we need and therefore costs a lot more than we should have spent. So spend a bit of time looking around at the sort of price you can expect to pay for products in the Toy craft kits category and use that alongside your own financial situation to set yourself a budget. The next step for us was to look at all of the products that fall within the Toy craft kits category, of which we found 145 products at Argos. So we pulled together all of the prices of these products to analyse the average prices as well as finding the cheapest and most expensive options.
