I'll be getting dd1 the rest of the horrid Henry books that she wants to complete her collection

Shopkins

Some earings (she had her ears pierced a couple of weeks ago and wants some)

A jewellery case for said earings that she has her eye on from Claire's

Some nice stationary and a furry note pad from Claire's

We're moving her into her own bedroom in a few weeks time so we'll be getting her a rug to go in there (it's laminate flooring)

It's dd2 (4) and dd3 (who turns 2 a month before Christmas) that I'm stuck for ideas on Confused

So far I have got my (will be just 7 at Christmas) the following:

Djeco art set (with felt tip pens)
Nail art kit (Galt)
Ariel mermaid dress up with wig
M&D deluxe magic set as linked upthread
A Barbie 'Chelsea' doll
Books
Various craft kits that I bought on sale

Am a bit stuck for other ideas so will follow this thread! She will no doubt have some ideas nearer the time but she is quite young for her age. It's also her birthday the week before Christmas.

It's update the bike year here, so that's her main pressie, but other ideas I have on the list are binoculars, lava lamp, spy stuff, shopkins, mini cluedo shuffle game (I keep a list going as always get asked for ideas from relatives, plenty of great suggestions on here thanks).

Youranus - dd2 (4yo) will love that spider habitat. That is going straight on her wishlist!

I have her put away...
Lego
Sew and knit craft set (less than half price in Argos)
Jewellery
Some Playmobil bits
Miss Chatterbox bag and pencil case (also less than half price in Argos)
Various little bits of stationery and kitten stickers.

She wants Lelli Kelly's too but we'll see on that one.

The Top Model books are good... my DD loves doing the designs in them and drawing all the clothes.

My DD is 8yr old & so far her list consists of
More Hama beads (big hit last year!)
Vtech secret diary
Shopkins
Selfie mic
And after watching a few YouTube videos she's now asked for one of the Twister dance/hip hop/ rave machine things.
She's also very much into practicing her gymnastic style moves so last year was a foldable gymnastic style mat from ikea which has been worth every penny and gets used daily. Smile

what does the spider habitat actually do Confused

ColintheCrow · 13/08/2016 05:50

YouTube it... the spider can be set to scuttle around the box or set to move faster in open spaces.

DD was 7 this week. The biggest hits seem to be a flutterbye fairy, books and a candy floss maker.

DD is 7 and she has asked for an iPod. I don't think it will actually be an iPod but a different make so that we can download tunes from other places.

Other than that she has some clothes, some book sets from the Book People and we're going to Harry Potter Studios (for the second time this year) in December so she will likely see something there that I can sneak back in and get her...

She has also got into proper jewellery recently so planning to get her a nice silver necklace and a little silver ring.

Oh also games!! She loves them. I definitely recommend 'Dobble' - in fact I would recommend that to everyone!! It's a fantastic game and everyone in our family loves it, from DD right up to Grandparents! Smile

For Xmas we've got her Harry Potter Trivial Pursuit and Labyrinth.

My DD who will turn 8 just after Christmas has asked for Heelies (which I hate, so not sure yet)
Other than that smiggles stuff, other stationary bits and pieces.
She is hard, not really into dolls or toys etc X

Smiggle definitely goes down well with all the 7 year olds I know (it's like catnip). Sharpie pens were also a craze (which is so annoying as they don't wash out well), along with colouring books. DD1 is hugely into Lego. Fairies still popular (including the never ending series of Rainbow Fairies). Clothes becoming popular and handbags. Then Kindle and iPod.

I have just ordered the Barbie stage and a rock star doll. We are thinking about getting her an Amazon Fire and then it will probably be shopkins, happy place and twozies! She would quite like a wedding dress design thing that she has seen on you tube but I don't know what it is so will struggle!!!
