this is going to go badly. spoilt buggers have got a train table and a castle.

in fact, they have a room full of toys and nowhere to put them, but can't really ask for storage solutions from granny. they like to buy toys.

Table football? Argos have a 10 game multi table for about £80 (although it is £9 for delivery). Cat no. 335/0843 (tried to do link but can't get it to work).

Slide, swing set or trampoline for the garden?

Imaginext?

lollystix · 17/11/2011 23:00

I think scaletrix will be timeless tbh. I know there's all the wiis and stuff which simulate the same things but to me scaletrix is a glorified train track and they all live pushing trains around those when they are toddlers.

That vodafone is a decent starter set - DS1 received it last Christmas. Good price too.

Does it need to be "stuff"? Or could you do theatre/theme park tickets, magazine subscription, Warner Bros have the Harry Potter Tour thing...

yellowflowers · 17/11/2011 23:20

Yes I agree - magazine sub or a day out or sporting event tickets
