To buy my 3 year old what she wants for Christmas?

[Abcdefgno]

Dd3 absolutely loves playing with tat. Anything small, fiddly, plastic and pink, DD loves. She’s asked for LOL surprise dolls, Mini Little Live Pets, Barbie tat etc for Christmas.

AIBU to buy DD these kinds of gifts (which is what she enjoys and has asked for), over ‘better’ and more educational toys? Or should I be trying to steer her towards these better toys as she is only 3?

I think it was quite common generations back: sweetcorn, potatoes, clothes pegs. With mass production we have just lost sight of what it took to get a "real" doll for some people.

Buy those toys and buy some books or games/puzzles too

I’ve always just bought whatever tat they wanted. Christmas is for frivolity

All the kids are saying it. It means "based in fact" or as we might say, "true statement". Get with it, gaviscon!
