Dd has just asked FC for a frozen doctors kit. They don't even exist! She also keeps asking for frozen dolls but she never actually plays with barbie type dolls so she won't be getting any...

For her baby sister to be here. I'm not due till early Feb. So I hope it doesn't happen.

Ive explained this to her but she just keeps asking for her to come cos she wants to share her toys with her and have special pancakes with her.

Meplusyouequals4 · 22/12/2014 17:49

She is 5

LePetitMarseillais · 22/12/2014 17:51

Dd would like gerbil leads(nuff said)

Dtwin 1 would like a remote control boat to sail on the sea-£50 for something that doesn't stay charged for long(will thus sail off into the sunset and not come back) and after one big wave will be no more.

Shockers · 22/12/2014 17:55

A swimming pool.

I like her style, but it ain't gonna happen.

honeybunny14 · 22/12/2014 17:55

Ds1 has been asking for a ps4 he already has ps3 so no chance Shock

HollyJollyXmas · 22/12/2014 18:01

DD:

Furby Boom - no way am I paying seventy quid for something I KNOW she will lose interest in by the end of January!

DS:

PS Vita / PS4 / iphone. We already have a Wii and he is getting a 3DS as we have saved for a while for this (he wanted one last year, but we said no then).
I actually laughed out loud at at his letter to FC and said FC wouldnt be bringing more than one electronic present EVER...he looked suitably sheepish. Cheeky git Grin

weeonion · 22/12/2014 18:08

Dd1 (7) asked for :-
snow - i cant control the weather

the ability to fly - i cant produce functional wings

a real dragon - i cant whip up a mythical creature

an i-phone - no chance!

the potential to turn into a mermaid with ability to control it when suits - again, a bit beyond me

a barbie's pooing dog.

out of the list 1 is possible.

MummyPig24 · 22/12/2014 18:15

Dd wants a suitcase and ds1 wants a crazy racer whatever that is. But they haven't got those. Plenty of other nice stuff though.

Jimble I got d's reindeer socks from morrisons
If you can add bells...Grin

insanityscratching · 22/12/2014 18:32

Jimble Peacocks had reindeer socks in this morning it would take minutes to sew on a couple of bells and I saw some in Home Bargains and B&M at the weekend.

BlackbirdOnTheWire · 22/12/2014 18:48

Next has reindeer socks too.

To add bells, you will have to buy Lindt reindeer, eat all the chocolate yourself and then stitch on the bell. It's one of those sacrifices parents have to make at this time of year.

DD has asked for Frozen dolls too. She is not getting them.

insanityscratching · 22/12/2014 18:58

Dd asked for Minecraft figures/playsets. I bought her a set last year that haven't seen the light of day since last January so I'm not buying more.

SouthernOne · 22/12/2014 19:06

A house, yes a real full size one, she is 24:)

That's a no for sure

bogiesaremyonlyfriend · 22/12/2014 19:21

Dd(2) wants a wall.... Not sure that is going to happen! Although she has got lego so will just have to build her own.
Dd(4) wants face paints and lipstick and she isn't getting either of those

Showy · 22/12/2014 19:28

I saw reindeer socks in Sainsbury's an hour ago and ds is currently wearing reindeer socks!

DS wants a helicopter. A real one.

LetTheRiverAnswer · 22/12/2014 19:32

A duck.

lucysmam · 22/12/2014 20:12

Dd1 - Minecraft Lego...ran out of funds but have picked up a much smaller (and cheaper) Wilko Blox set for the time being that she'll be pleased with. Her birthday is in January so the birthday fairy now knows what to get her Grin

BornToFolk · 22/12/2014 20:22

DS really wants a drum kit. Not happening!

He is getting this though, which I'm hopeful can be used with headphones..

SpeckleDust · 22/12/2014 20:24

6 yo DD2 told me at the weekend her main present should be a snowball making machine. She even described how it all worked.

"Well...obviously it has to snow first. Then the machine scoops up snow and makes perfect balls for throwing".

She's got rollerblades.

CyclopsBee · 22/12/2014 20:31

DS1 (16) didn't have a clue what he wanted, has a job and earns money so buys himself what he wants,
He txt me at work last week 'mum,mum, I know what I want!'
Me; great son what is it?
DS; a kebab machine and a lump of meat is it meat? so I can create my own kebabs
Hmm not a chance son! Think again

Ktay · 22/12/2014 20:40

DD2 (aged nearly 3) wants a Thomas the Tank Engine dress. Sadly all thomas clothing is unisex at best (she already has pants and PJs from the "boys'" range)

nickeljrismybabesitter · 22/12/2014 20:47

You can buy fake snow!

Just add water and it's like proper snow!
in the uk!

nickeljrismybabesitter · 22/12/2014 20:51

Ktay dd also has thomas pants Grin
Can you sew at all? You could sew the pj top onto a skirt?

Ktay · 22/12/2014 20:53

Ooh there's a thought. Will investigate! Not going to happen before Xmas tho...
