Kakadu Plum Co.
Give the gift of Australian culture this year with a taste of indigenous superfoods. Kakadu Plum - aka Gubinge - is a powerful antioxidant, with 100 times the vitamin C of oranges. Simply add a teaspoon into your water, smoothie, protein shake or any other drink and reap the benefits. Sprinkle a little across your breakfast yoghurt or give your protein balls and salad dressing an antioxidant punch.
Know someone with trouble sleeping? The Jilungin bush tea is wild harvested by Indigenous Australians from The Kimberley area and is known for its ability to lull you into a long, deep sleep.

Pretend Play Toys Kids Will Love
Christmas morning is a blur of wrapping paper and excited kids for most families. Stuck for ideas for your little ones? MyDeal pretend play is full of toys and gifts that won’t break the bank. For just $50 there’s dollhouses for your little girls, fire stations for little boys, play kitchens and pretend food for the aspiring chefs and play tents that they can share.
Chilly Towel
It surprises most people in the Northern hemisphere to learn Australia does not have a white Christmas. But Down Under we’re used making sandmen and hosting BBQ’s in the sun. That doesn’t mean everyone enjoys the heat though. For a gift that’s as cool as it is useful take a look at the Chilly Towel. Developed by a cancer survivor, this towel retains water while feeling dry to touch and maintains a pleasant cool feel on the skin. Perfect for handling hot flushes, fevers, poor circulation or for keeping chill after the gym.

Office Chairs With A Difference
The last thing you want to think about on your holidays is work. But there’s more ways than one way to use an office chair. If there’s a boyfriend/partner or teenager in your life with a penchant for video games we bet there’s a few new releases hiding under the tree. Hours of gameplay can wreak havoc on your body and posture. A versatile office chair allows comfort and support so you won’t worry quite so much about their lack of movement while beating that new game.
Niovi
Many of us have a new mum in our life who we just don’t know what to get for Christmas! Having a baby close to Christmas usually means added stress for the new parents. The organic newborn gift set from Niovi includes a blanket, bib and beanie; three essential items that may have slipped through the cracks in the final stages of her pregnancy.
