My 5yo DS says he Doesn't know what he wants for Christmas!!

[CDMforever]

We usually spend about £50 on each child.

I've already bought him the Playmobil pirate ship for £25 at tesco.

He LOVES lego but has loads and loads having just had his birthday.

He is currently using a balance bike really well so maybe its the year of the bike?!

If not, any other ideas??

In fact, have no idea how much a bike costs!! (probably more than £25 methinks)

Maybe you could get a second-hand bike? He absolutely will not care that it's not new. I think it's a great idea if he's just had a lot of toys for his birthday.

(My 5yo ds is currently riding his sister's old disney princess bike - we painted it black and I got a couple of star wars decals for it and he is thrilled with it!)

The pirate ship is enough surely? I'd just get a couple of little things like a book or a jigsaw and a DVD maybe

Yes I suppose I don't want to end up buying something just for the sake of it!

I also thought about a marble run from ELC. My eldest DS used to have one and played with it for hours.

Another option is a game for the DS tho a bit boring to open!

are disney dvds still bogof, i got a few for my dc's one being a 5 year old boy, he has also got army figures, tanks etc bought off ebay hm forces i think they are called.

Oh yes, he did mention Armed Forces when perusing the Laminated Book of Dreams (Argos catalogue) the other day.

Ds is almost 5 and the thing he seems to most want is the imaginext t rex, a lot of his friends say the same.

Does he like cars the movie? The bigg finn mcmissile is about 25 I think.

Other than that a second hand bike would be a great idea. Even askk on freecycle and if you got one toysrus do nice horns / spoke decs etc...

My ds (7) loves ds games, not too boring to open at all

lol, the argos catogue is the most read book in the house for the dc's, full of different coloured circles and crosses, i agree it is the book of dreams plastic tat

Smyths have got loads of army things - not HM Armed Forces but similar and cheaper - my ds is 7 and loves it all

Yes he did mention an Imaginext dinosaur thingy now I think of it - its been so enlightening coming on MN!

Thanx all, it actually transpires that he does want quite a few things!

Ooh definately a bike :)

My 5 year old DS also wants the Imaginext T Rex Dinosaur - it is the only thing that he keeps saying that he wants!
