Some good ideas! Thank you all.

I've paid more attention than usual to the "ooh I like that" type comments when they're watching telly this weekend . Usually I just sort of go "uh-huh, that's nice".

Books are sorted - my dad has bought them a large-ish selection between them so I think more will be overkill for the moment.

I'm on with dress up dresses (Snow White and new Cinderella).

I think I'm going to go for play d'oh for the youngest (possibly the sparkly one I spied earlier) and a Shopkins set if I can find one they don't already have between them.

And for the oldest, Minecraft StoryMode (think that's what it is?) and a craft set of some sort. She likes the look of the Sew Cool machine but I'm not overly sure after reading reviews and asking on here about them.

I should have change left for onesies, stocking fillers and some christmassy sweets I think. Maybe even a dress each if I'm careful with it.

They've asked for a WiiU as a joint present but I'm still undecided about that one. I thought they were handheld thingys but they seem to be consoles & I'm not entirely convinced having one between them won't lead to huffing and puffing.
