Nostalgia and Memories

With the easy availability of items through online shopping, it's now easier than ever for people to hunt down their favourite toys and games from their childhoods.

Many toys from the sixties, seventies and eighties are still popular today, while others will please only a select few who remember them the first time around. Whether it's a toy that's stood the test of time or one that has a place in the hearts of only those born several decades ago, a retro gift can spark a nostalgic journey down memory lane.

At Nicey Nice Limited here's no shortage of new technology and fancy gadgets on the shelves, many of which will find their way into Christmas stockings this year, but sometimes it's good to take a step back and think about how good things were back in the day. Kids played freely in the streets, front doors were left unlocked, and life was enjoyed at a slower pace.

It's easy to feel frazzled in today's ever-changing technological world, with newer, better, faster things coming out every day. A retro gift can be a timely reminder to slow down and enjoy life.

Decade by Decade

Lego is a household favourite that soared in popularity in the sixties, and has remained on the shelves ever since. Twister is a party favourite that also hit the stores in the sixties, still enjoyed by children and adults alike to this day.

Seventies children can pick up a Star Wars Lightsaber and reminisce about their trips to the cinema to see A New Hope, or befuddle themselves with a Rubik's cube, just like they used to.

Children of the eighties playing with a remote control Knight Rider car can pretend to be "a young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless."

Nicey Nice Ltd offer an updated Sega MegaDrive console which will please nineties kids, as it comes with all the classics built-in, such as Sonic and Knuckles, Goldenaxe and Columns.
