4 year old's impossible request - help!

[HodorHodorHodor]

My dd is nearly 5 and the only thing she has asked for from Santa is pixie dust "so I can fly about everywhere" I have tried to explain that I don't think the elves can make things like that but she is not to be deterred!

I am trying to scale down this year as on ml and no more room for the bigger ticket stuff, which I think she has most of anyway (eg bike, dolls house, lego etc). Would any of you have a better way to put her off pixie dust and/or some other item to brainwash her into wanting?? Thanks

what about taking her to that place where you can be weightless for a whole, but she may nt be old enough.

what a great thing to ask for though!

manic I think the older/younger concept is quite a hardone for little ones to grasp. Ah asteria that's lovely. Will try my best at tiny writing piglet, luckily she can't read yet!

anonymoususername1 There is Christmas stuff in almost every shop at the moment!

would she/you go for this sort of thing:

www.airkix.com/ - DS1's 5, he's seen it and is trying to persuade me to take him some time..

I'm sure someone will be producing personalised fairy letters with tiny writing! Ebay and Google are your friends...

Loving some of these :o

I had the opposite, DS1 when about the same age asked Santa for a lamp. Santa looked a bit quizzical and asked "you mean like a magic lamp with a genie inside?" (Well done Santa btw - how the feck was I supposed to get hold of one of them?!)

"Nope" says DS1 "just a lamp like from Argos so I can read in bed" :o

VaJayJay's idea is magical, in every sense of the word!!

Re. the green unicorn called Frank - do you know anyone who crochets, because there are unicorn patterns out there.

Ravelry has a lot of patterns, many available free - like this one, or this one.

myother your ds sounds v practical!

Yes he is :) future requests have been for things such as a new bed, a desk, a computer chair, a cushion (!) etc - honestly we did furnish his room!

We used similar to Mrs VaJayJays and have an Iridlsh fairy door with a load of bits like a fairy bike, washing line etc I think I have more gun then the DC with it

Do you have a trampoline? If not, would you consider getting her one (almost like flying)?

go to your local theatre and arrange for "Peter Pan" if that's your panto this year to get her to fly across the stage. I'm sure with a bit of theatre magic will be like the real thing!
