DSSs are 12 and 10, they live with their mum and stay with us in the holidays. This year is our turn for Christmas Day.
I think most of the family are going to cop out and give them money which they will like but I know that on Christmas day it is nice to get some actual presents and not just money and or clothes.
We have two DDs age 5 and 2, and I am not short of ideas for them because they are here all the time so I know what they like better than DSSs, they are younger so it's easier and they have less stuff in the first place. They also usually get boring stuff like pants, bath towels or bedding dressed up as presents.
DSSs don't seem to have any hobbies other than playing computer games and they already own every gadget going, a DS each, playstation 3, i pod touches, i pad. These things are all from their mum and we couldn't afford to get them anything like that, (and it's never been a competition just a statement of fact). The 10 year old still plays with toys a bit but mainly thinks he's "a bit old for them now". They also both have swanky scooters which they do like.
Please help me, all suggestions will be gratefully received because beyond new bedding and clothes I am completely stuck.
