Young toy testers had a great time trying out the latest gizmos and gadgets at a festive workshop in the Eastgate Shopping Centre.

Favourites included a Boxer Robot and Boppi The Booty Shakin’ Llama, both from The Entertainer.

A wall-climbing car from Menkind also proved popular.

Another toy-testing workshop will be held on Saturday, December 14 between noon and 4pm.

By testing and voting for their top toys, gizmos and gadgets, parents can enter their children into a prize draw to win a £50 Eastgate gift voucher.

On Saturday and Sunday, there will be more festive fun with the Christmas Quackers who will be staging 30-minute performances and waddling around the centre.

Throughout December, school and community groups will also bring festive cheer to Eastgate by singing carols on the Cairngorm Group community stage.
