Shes had everything, bikes, scooters, rollerblades, LOL’s, sylvanian families, shopkins, board games, craft stuff, make your own [insert everything], instant camera, watch, books, pens galore, diaries, soft toys, all kinds of dolls.
She has my old iPad so don’t want to buy her another.

I’m not in the IK so can’t give her an ‘experience’ day.

Clothes a plenty.

Truth is, since she was young she has never been one to play with her things. She just used to muddle about with it and then leave them never to be seen again.

What the hell can I buy this kid?

Did she not write a letter to Santa? There's probably something she'd like, even something random, if you asked her to write it down. Or make a list (limited obviously!)

Popcorn machine

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. She did write a letter to Santa wanting gardening tools (which we’ve bought). Shes asked for nothing else but I know on Christmas morning she’ll be disappointed if her sister opens more presents.

Thanks Mummy. We’ve done jewellery and she ‘s lost it. Confused

Asj, thanks for the list. A few on there I hadn’t thought about.

Thanks for everyone’s input.
