I am really stuck on what to get my kids
I have ds1 who will be 6 three days before Xmas, dd who will be 4.5 at Xmas and ds2 who will be 2 in nov.

They have a whole playroom full of toys, half of which are hardly played with and I just can't think of anything to get them
Ds1 is a bookworm and computer nut, he's getting skylanders giants booster pack for his birthday but that's all I can think of
Dd, all I can think of is the Lego friends sets
Ds2 I have no idea!

We have lots of family who will all want to buy them something too

My ds is a day younger than your eldest! He's getting some vintage star wars vehicles and imaginext batman stuff, he's also banging on about bakugan but I think it'll probabaly be a passing phase.
Dd is nearly 2 - would your little ds like a balance bike? Kitchen? Baby and buggy? Brio?

We already have a toy kitchen, huge wooden trainset etc, 3 big boxes of Lego etc
Although might get dd some of the Lego friends girly Lego. Ds2 is the hardest to buy for as he has all the other 2 s old toys to play with, at the money he is obsessed with Thomas but we already have tonnes of wooden railway and Thomas trains, loads of Thomas books and te whole box set of Thomas DVDs etc from when ds 1 was obsessed with it!!
My friend is emigrating and giving us a huge trampoline.

what about Merlin passes for everyone if you live near a theme park?

Check the attractions on Merlin though- we got some a couple of years back and they are really good value if you go to Thorpe Park/Chessington but I don't know if they're suitable for young DC.
We went to Mdme Tussauds, there's London Dungeons available, Alton Towers.

Why not take them on a day out to one of those Santa Special Steam Rides?
We went to Burnham on Crouch (they do Thomas the Tank Engine days too) and IIRC Aldersley Edge (but I'm not sure that's the right name).
