I'm having last minute doubts about what we're getting for DS!

What are you getting for yours?

Two guinea pigs!

Flowerfae · 19/12/2018 21:23

His main present is a game for the Switch, Hyrule Warriors :)

wakemewhenitsallover · 19/12/2018 21:27

OMG both my kids would love Guinea Pigs.

I think the Christmas madness must be getting to me, for a nano second there I thought - now there's a good idea!

Not that they're not a good idea in general. but probably best not to be an impulse purchase!

Go cart attachment for hover board. (H Board was last year’s present).

Anyone got good stocking filler ideas for ten year old (other than sweets & chocolate)?

Dothehappydance · 19/12/2018 21:36

We don't do a main present as such, but he would be most happy with a stocking full of Match Attax cards.

He is however about to get a new tablet, as dh dropped his (and it is difficult to charge) but it isn't a Christmas present.

Lego Boost here

Fifa19

Stocking fillers : a torch, gel for his hair, face cloth, a joke book

Turquoisetamborine · 19/12/2018 21:41

We haven’t spent loads as we took the kids to Florida in October. So I suppose his main present is Fifa and WWE Xbox games.

A desk

SpeedofaSloth · 19/12/2018 21:46

An aquarium, which is a joint present with his 5yo sister (planning to take them to choose fish after Christmas). Because it's shared, he's also getting a Lego Ninjago set he's been coveting for a while.

bookmum08 · 19/12/2018 21:46

Nintento stuff
Manga stuff
Dolls clothes
Duplo set

Yes all for the same ten year old. She is half wannabe moody gamer girl and half big lover of her dolls. (and she loves Duplo still but so do I - and I am way older than 10!!)

wishingyouluck · 19/12/2018 21:47

A supercar driving experience as a main gift (they get driven not drive themselves) Smile
