need a special 'santa' present for nearly 3 year old DS

[yougotafastcar]

So on Christmas eve, DS is leaving his dummies out for Santa to take to the baby reindeers yes I know its cheesy I need a lovely present to say "remember Santa gave you X because you're such a big, kind boy for giving your dummies away" when he asks for them!

I was going to get him a buzz lightyear from the disney store but they are sold out, and anyway I can't afford it now.

Does anyone have any special present ideas for a nearly 3 year old that don't cost a fortune? He only has 6 presents from us plus stocking fillers, I'm feeling really sad that that's all we can afford.

He likes cars (but has hundreds of little hotwheels type ones), recently taking a liking to toy story. Likes most things really.

Thanks in advance

What about getting him stuffed reindeer toy? If that's where his dummies are going. Gorgeous ones in build a bear of course but also lots on amazon and eBay.

Ooo I have been looking for a reindeer toy but for some reason didn't think to look there! Thanks

that is a fantastic idea!! might have to borrow it when dd2 needs to get rid of her dummies! probably next year!

I think a cuddly toy is a lovely idea it can also be a comfort when he wants dummy

could u make up and print of a certificate or thank u note from Santa/reindeer nursery? my dd1 got a certificate from tooth fairy and she adores it, and is so proud she shows everyone!!

Oh nocuts that's a lovely idea! Will have to get on that soon.

Dummy idea is because I didn't want DS to pass on his dummies to babies because his little sister is due in march & I don't want him to hate her for taking his precious dummies!
