Just wondering your opinion on this. I have bought DS (will be 17 months at xmas)an ELC second hand car garage from ebay as this was what I thought he would love and he is obviously too young to ask for things. They are £40 new and this was £15 and is in box etc. DD will be 4.8 and has been asking for a few months for a guitar. Have looked around and have found a good electronic one that does lots of cool stuff for £35. Becuase of them being fiddly and electronic i am wary of getting one second hand. I do feel bad though that one child will get something new, the other second hand. We don't have much money but could have afforded a new garage and I am all for it for ethical and financial reasons. I think dd s still too young to know one is new and one is not as well, but I wonder what my family (parents, b and sil) will wonder when the kids come to open their pressies. Am I over thinking this? Should I get him something small that is new and give him the garage a few days before xmas?
