My two (7 and 5) are engrossed in Crayola Colour Explosion books. They are great. Black coated paper with special pens than make images appear in bright colours.

DD also loves her Magic Trick set and DS Lite(obv! - thought she was going to faint as I had told her they were FAR too expensive and she would no way be getting one!).

DS loved his dinosaurs best.

My DS aged 8 loves the keyboard that was a joint present for him and his Sister. She's not getting much of a look in! DD loves her Singstar, and has revealed that she has quite a voice on her! DS2 loves his fluffy Mumble penguin who has been permanently wedged under DS's arm sine the wrapping came off! Bleeesss!!
