What are your DC getting from grandparents?

[BearSoFair]

I love reading the 'what have you bought for DC' threads but don't think I've seen one for GPs (or any other family members!)

Please don't turn this into a judgy thread as sometimes happens with present threads, can we just live and let live...

So

DS1 (15)
From my parents: Bluetooth earphones, Vans beanie, Batman calendar.
From MIL: Star Wars lava lamp, wallet.

DD (10)
My parents: 3D pen, emoji backpack, Roald Dahl colouring book.
MIL: Bead jewellery kit, Pass the Pen game.

DS2 (8)
My parents: Spy goggles, Lego 'Everything to know' book, thinking putty.
MIL: Lego Ninjago clock, monkey puppet.

Sadly my parents (who are no longer with us, who would have made an absolute fuss of their grandchildren) so obviously nothing from that side. From DH’s side they will get whatever we go out and buy (after all our shopping is done and wrapped)
Which we will pay for, wrap and give and
Will eventually be reimbursed for. Absolutely pisses me off every birthday and every Christmas since both children were born. Even tried giving them specific ideas but they will not go out and do it for themselves. Have also suggested they bring the presents when they come, be it xmas afternoon or Boxing Day so they can see the children open them. But no they are not interested whatever we say. Despite only
Living an hour away, mid sixties and in good health and drive. Neither work any more. So no excuse really is there!! This is also the in laws who have never in 23 years cooked a Christmas dinner for me - I have done it every year!! They just can’t be arsed.
Sorry to upset the thread at the off but feeling particularly peed off for my children tonight and the grandparents that would have made a fuss that they don’t have any more.

Nothing.
Apparantly they don't believe in giving gifts and save money in the bank - no proof of this though. They don't mind buying each other gifts though and get arsey because we don't buy them anything
