Just thought if we all say what our dc's have asked for we can make a list for people who are struggling to know what to buy?

DD1 7 - Not sure what to get her yet but has asked for a fish tank and lego Ninja's.

DD2 5- wants Moshling zoo ds game and leappad.

DD 10 wants a Kindle (already bought it and put it away ready) and some other stuff (doesn't know yet). I suspect she'll be angling for a Hollister hoodie and Lego Harry Potter for the Wii parrt 2. We are supposed to be doing a low key Christmas as we're off to Florida at Easter time and madame wants Converse, Hollister, Abercrombie and Fitch and other stuff besides! So we'll see. If she goes overboard with the wants for Christmas, Easter will be downgraded!

DS will be 9 months. He's getting:

A Labrador push along baby walker
Some board books
A hand held drum
Toy cars
A fleecy sleepsuit
A shape sorter (possibly a Noah's Ark one)
A pull along dog or train (Ninky Nonk maybe)

Plus a stocking with goodness knows what in.

All this is after me telling everyone we wouldn't be going overboard because he's too young! Grin

ds1 (7) has requested a laptop. He is not expecting me to get it for him though - he says you can get electrical stuff from Santa for free so thinks that is a better plan Grin

Choochoo - my dh would be very jealous of your dd1's present!

msbuggywinkle · 26/10/2011 10:53

The DDs are 5 and 2 and are getting as their main present a play kitchen and stuff to go with it.

Then they're each getting PJs, a DVD, a book, some plastic animal figures, chocolate coins and bath crayons.

We don't buy them much as we have a huge family who go a bit OTT.

Am also doing a stocking for DD3 (due in December) because DD1 asked if Santa will come to her, it is just going to be full of nicer versions of stuff I'd buy anyway!

Ds is almost 4 and he desperately wants a skateboard.

This is only because he has no idea that such a thing as octonauts toys exist.

ds (8) - a bass guitar as he has recently started learning and loves it and a year long subscription to club penguin.

dd (7) - all she wants is yet more cuddly toys and I am having to ask myself whether to draw the line at getting more or give in.

WhatWouldLeoDo · 26/10/2011 12:17

DS is three and wants a garage despite my best efforts to encourage him towards a wooden fort so he's getting that along with some cars and some wooden road to link it to his train set. He's also getting

Dinosaurs
Orchard toys game
Hungry hippos
Marble run
Couple of books
Couple of new Thomas the tank engine engines
cash register (he keeps telling me he's sad because he doesn't have something to take the money in when he plays cafes)

That's more than enough; I'll have to resist picking up other wee bits before Christmas.
