This game has been around for a few years now (since 2001) but Carcassonne is one of the top rated board games of recent time. Winner of the coveted Spiel des Jahres (Game of the Year) 2001, Carcassonne is a clever tile-laying game where players develop the area around Carcassonne and deploy their followers on the roads, in the cities, in the cloisters and in the fields. The skill of the players to develop the area will determine who is victorious.

If you are looking for something fun but still education this Christmas then it is worth taking a closer look at Magic Fish. The Magic Fish gift is so simple yet so special. Take the Magic Fish tea bag, add to water and then in 12-24 hours you can have fish swimming around! The fish that are born are call killifish or Red-Golden Dragon fish. As this is a pretty unusual Christmas Gift idea we have taken the FAQ from the PrezzyBox website where you can buy them for only £9.95.
* How big do my Magic Fish get?
Magic Fish range in size from 2-2.5 inches
* How many Magic Fish will hatch out?
You normally get 6 to 8 Magic Fish but don’t be surprised if you get as many as 20.
* After I hatch out my first batch of Magic Fish is the teabag done?
No, if you put it back in Ziploc bag you can try to hatch out more in about 2 weeks.
* What do I feed my Magic Fish?
The first food should be the baby brine shrimp (Sea Monkey) which you hatch from the food box. When your Magic Fish get larger (about 1/2 inch) you can start feeding them more variety. Tropical fish flake foods or frozen fish foods like brine shrimp, glass worms and bloodworm.
* Where are my Magic Fish originally from?
Magic fish are a family of fish know as Killifish. They are found in several countries. The Magic Fish you have are found on the continent of Africa. In nature they are found in freshwater temporary pools, brooks and swamps.
* How long do my Magic Fish live?
Magic Fish are considered annuals but if the are well taken care of they can live 2 years or more
* Can my Magic Fish be kept in a fish tank with other fish?
Yes, when your Magic Fish is large enough they can be kept with other tropical freshwater fish. Check with your local fish store for compatibility.
* How big of a bowl or tank do I need for my Magic Fish?
Depending on how many Magic Fish you are keeping together and how often you want to change some water, you can go as small as a 1 gallon bowl up to a regular fish tank with filter. In a bowl with no filtration you should change a quarter of the water each day so that you don’t get a build up of waste.
