What should I buy my 12 year old son and 8 year old son for Christmas

[Dddw]

I have not t started shopping yet because I don’t know what to get them I have asked them and they don’t know my 12 year old and 8 year old son like different stuff also so I will have to go to lots of shops my 12 year old son likes football and being on his phone and he gets lots of girls and is a chilled out person my 8 year old son likes Lego and Star Wars and fidget toys I know they are completely different so I will have to go every where I am going to go shopping this weekend I just don’t know what to buy them

ask them?

Also your 12 year old 'gets lots of girls'?

Yes he does I have asked them they siad they don’t know

What does ‘get lots of girls’ mean?! 😳

anyway - football cards? Pokémon cards, Lego sets, football strips, football etc etc

Do you not think its ever so slightly sad that you think complete strangers might know more about what your kids may like than you? Can you not like have some conversations with them and listen to their responses?

a football, lego, fidget toys and a book about treating girls with respect?

I mean by a lot of girls have a crush on him but my 8 year old dose like Pokémon cards

I have they don’t know what they want

They're definitely old enough to help you out a bit. If the 12 year old is past the santa stage then perhaps you could have a bit of a chat about how he might not really want anything and could just get some small bits (chocolate, deodorant set etc). rather than spending on stuff he doesn't like.
For the 8 year old- give them the Smyths catalogue and a pen to circle what they like lol

I've ordered a box set from Mysteryboxd for my son - not sure if the BF20 code still works to get 20% off

He's asked for mystery shirts in the past for his birthday and loved them

Argos have offers on lego starwars for your younger one

If they really don't want anything in particular then get stuff you would be getting anyway for them even if it wasn't Christmas.
New clothes and shoes.
Bubble bath/body sprays.
Replacement stationary for school.
Books.
Add in some Christmasy chocolates and you're done.

my 8 year old wants everything he sees even if he doesn’t like it if a ad comes on the tv he says I want it

We've got these before too. DS loved them.

I am going to queen gate shopping centre in Peterborough so I think they have a argos

I tell mine to make a top 3, they see lots of ads and they can make a list to show Santa all the things they like- but they have to have a top 3 to show the things that they really love. It doesn't mean they'll definitely get all 3, but at least it makes them organise their thoughts.

That is really smart doing that

I will order them for my 12 year old son when I get paid tomorrow

What has that got to do with Christmas gifts? I am so confused

This thread will get pulled. Wind up merchant...

You again

As he's 12 the OP should start having conversations about the fuckwits who work for the BBC and why he should never ever act like that.

What has girls having a crush on your 12yr old, relevant to his christmas presents? Does this make you proud, sounds a bit weird on your part to be telling us this? and how do you know?
