Please help......Santa has fucked up

[ohfourfoxache]

Ds1 (3) has just written his Christmas list and he cried when I explained that Santa may not be able to get him everything on his (very short) list.

The reason? He’s suddenly decided he’d like a “dinoroar with green balls”

Finally managed to get out of him that he’s seen this on Ryan’s fucking Toy Review, and gently trying to tell a 3 year old that Ryan has different toys because he’s a long way away was met with a little sob of disappointment (he NEVER reacts like this)

So please dear MNetters, I don’t even know where to start and a 20 minute google trawl with DS has revealed nothing.

The whole exercise was a bit of a disaster tbh, especially as the list he has for his 1 year old brother is long and his own is rather short

I think it's called Dino Meal. It's a dinosaur that eats balls and there is a video of it on his you tube page.

I know this is in Australia but it's the only link I can find!

Mynameisjune I think the insinuation is he called it a dinoroar as he's three and can't spell dinosaur...

He is 3. Presumably he wrote the list with someone's help, in which case that was the opportunity to give him some ideas (of things you have) so that santa is a winner. Asking a 3yo to do a list and not giving them any input when they only come up with 2 items is ridiculous. He is 3 not 13.

You lot are awesome, thank you

I’ve just refreshed and I’ve seen the pics @Cheekysquirrel - it may well be that that’s it, he’s taken to playing with his old shape sorter recently so it could be anything!

See one of the problems is that I don’t know if he genuinely means dinoroar or not - he told me my little toe was “exceedingly small” the other day and will happily tell you all about the inner workings of toilet cisterns with the correct pronunciation (I shit you not, he’s a bloody weird kid ) - but he’ll see chimsampees (chimpanzees) on the tv so his words aren’t always reliable!

This one doesn't poop but it does eat and the dad makes a green ball.

Sorry no help to you but I would like my 'Ex' and central heating for Christmas. I do know I will be disappointed as I am a bit older than 3.

Could you not go on the tablet he had access to and look at his YouTube history? Sure you can find what toy from that

Good idea Pepsi.

Ah the old rod for your own back. We don’t don’t Christmas lists for this very reason (and a few others).

Let us know if you work it out OP - I've now watched way too many of Ryan's videos. He's a cute kid I have to admit and amazing the way he's changed over the past year.

You have my sympathy OP, I've just spent the last month watching various eBay auctions of Rescue Bots in the hope that is find the one "ultra rare" (according to DS - he was right too) one he has asked for. Eventually got one at a reasonable price but had the "Santa can't get everything" conversation several times

Does he watch Peppa pig by any chance?

Btw that's a link to George's new birthday toy - Dinoroar. A robot dinosaur.
