That's tough Grin erm maybe water with a bit food colouring and a bath toy? It's the closest thing I can come up with.

I'd love to spend a bit of time in a littleys head sometimes just to see how their minds work. They're fab!

Tesco rechargeable batteries last year

I know, it is kind of adorable. In a, you know, gross sort of way.

rebeccalavelle12 · 08/12/2016 17:07

Blue tack. Every year

"a present!"

I keep asking what kind of present but can get no further DD (2.5)

QueenofallIsee · 08/12/2016 17:32

DD wanted a baby sister from age 3 onwards - my delivery of 3 brothers to her did nothing to satisfy this wish, poor DS3 was greeted with a 'is that ANOTHER boy, for goodness sake'

Serenitymummy · 08/12/2016 17:33

EvansOvalPies ukeleles are one of the random special items at Lidl this week...

Goingtobeawesome · 08/12/2016 17:33

ShuckingFit - check out the presents on this morning websites. There was something that might fit the bill..

DillDongMerrilyOnHigh · 08/12/2016 17:35

A hosepipe

OneInEight · 08/12/2016 17:37

A colour wheel (we were mystified so he didn't get it but it turned out it was the sort of thing paint manufacturers give away to help you choose good colour combinations).

DS asked for a 3 piece suit when he was about 5.
Grin
Did you get him one?

Am giggling at 'Brian plug'. Fantastic.

Last year DS (3 at the time) asked for cheese. This year he asked for a pylon (we were driving past some at the time). Managed to convince him that it would be much better to make our own using straws and sellotape!

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 08/12/2016 17:42

DS wanted cheese. One of the really huge blocks from Makro. We got it and he was delighted. It was better than the Heelys and remote controlled car his grandparents bought him apparently.

OlafLovesAnna · 08/12/2016 17:42

My 9 and 11 yr olds have requested a pot noodle each! I never but them, I probably haven't even had one since I was a student.

I suspect their dad must have given one at some point and suggested they didn't mention it to me so now it is the world's most exotic foodstuff

wendytorrence · 08/12/2016 17:43

DS1 asked for post it notes when he was about 4, 10 years on and it's all about the cash!

OhPuddleducks · 08/12/2016 17:44

A microphone to wake someone up.

On his nursery Santa letter, where everyone else was asking for Lego....

Pilgit · 08/12/2016 17:45

Last year DD2 asked for a seagull. We got her a cuddly one. She wasn't impressed - wanted a real one.

kaitlinktm · 08/12/2016 17:45

My son wanted an otter. He was 22 Blush

lambo1982 · 08/12/2016 17:51
