My DKs are 2.4 and 6.5. I am having a pre-Christmas sort out and have bagged loads of cuddly toys that they never play with and lie around gathering dust.
I have told the eldest that I want to give them to the local Domestic Violence Refuge so that those children whose mums have had to leave home without anything can have a teddy to cuddle at night.
He is adamant to the point of tears that I cannot give any away even though we have tried to explain how lucky he is to have a bedroom full of toys.
Half of me thinks, well they are his and if I give them away against his wishes he will be upset and half of me thinks, he probably won't notice they have gone.
By the way, I only have half an hour to respond on any questions to this and will then have to log on tonight again (I'm on my lunchbreak) so please bear with me.
