OK so they're back to school this week Grin.
Time to start thinking about Christmas I think. Little 2 will be a doddle but think I'm really going to struggle with eldest as she's at that stage where she seems to be too old for toys but not old enough for make up etc.

She's Harry Potter mad but has every Harry Potter thing I can think of, has a very small room so no option to buy room things as couldn't possibly fit anything more in there.

Not into make up or jewellery yet. Loves books but already has kindle unlimited so can just download what she wants. She got a cake pop maker/jewellery making sets/mermaid blanket last year.

Just bought her new trainers/backpack etc for going back to school.

Any recommendations of what your DDs of that age have loved would be appreciated for either presents or stocking fillers.

I see John Lewis have a Harry Potter labyrinth game

Does she have the Hogwarts popup book? It's really lovely.

There's a Harry Potter cluedo set which looks interesting.

Lc2006 · 30/09/2019 18:40

The pop up book looks great! She does have hp cluedo already but very tempted by the book Grin

My daughter is 11 and has asked for-

  • tripod, book on macro photography, maybe a new lens
  • sharpies
  • headphones
  • Oliver bonas voucher
  • Hufflepuff editions of the HP books
  • PJs
  • Mac computer for her 12th birthday (just after Christmas)

Mine wants a bike and a hover board... with go cart seat ... I would have LOVED that when I was her age!

Lc2006 · 01/10/2019 19:16

@Ohgoodness34 Haha so would I! In fact I don't know who would enjoy it more even at my age, me or her...DD however is quite clumsy so probably not the best idea. Hope you have an amazing Christmas day with that though Grin

Mine is 12 and she is getting the Lego Central Perk set with a lighting kit as a main present, but she is Friends obsessed.

mamabluestar · 26/10/2019 07:39

@Lc2006 sprockets are currently half price on Amazon

Lc2006 · 26/10/2019 08:12

@mamabluestar ooh you lot are lovely thank you for thinking of me Smile I noticed on the bargain thread the other day and managed to pick one up thank you

@Lc2006 glad you got sorted. I'm just catching up on the bargain thread today 🙈

oobedobe · 01/11/2019 19:55

My 11 yo has asked for nothing! So I am still deciding on a few things but so far I am giving her:
Tamagotchi ON
So Magic DIY Terrarium
Not Parent Approved Card Game
Hidden Side Lego set
Nintendo Labs starter set

SaveMeBarry · 01/11/2019 20:07

@oobedobe Can I ask where you got the tamagotchi ON please? I thought it was only released in the US. I think dd10 would love one!

oobedobe · 01/11/2019 21:16

@SaveMeBarry sorry we are in Canada...I didn't know it wasn't in the UK yet.

This is the store I ordered from - I think it does ship to UK...worth a try...
www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/toys/gifts/tamagotchi-on-virtual-pet-magic/045557428341-item.html

Also you can get 25% off with the code INDIGOKIDS2019

SaveMeBarry · 01/11/2019 22:01

Thanks @oobedobe I’ve had a look but unfortunately while they do ship to Ireland, they don’t ship that particular item here Hmm. Ah well, maybe they’ll come available this side of the pond Smile.

hellswelshy · 03/11/2019 19:20

Following with interest as I have 2 11yr old dd's, so lots of Christmas present ideas needed plus birthday shortly after!

My input for what it's worth: Jacqueline Wilson set of books, fluffy bed socks, headphones, hoodie/sweatshirt, art set.

kissmelittleass · 18/11/2019 12:20

Bumping for ideas

Lc2006 · 18/11/2019 18:21

Well I've finished shopping for her and now she's decided there are several things she wants Confused

I havn't quite decided yet whether to save some of the things that I have bought for her birthday and get her what shes asked for or just to stick with what I have Hmm however might give others some ideas. So there are these and these which have a shocking price tag! So the decider will be if I can get a black Friday bargain 🤞

Those pens !!!!

Ohgoodness34 · 26/11/2019 21:54

@Lc2006 you’ve thrown a curveball into DDs Xmas wish list. Now Chameleon pens are top of her list never previously having known of their existence Grin

Lc2006 · 27/11/2019 07:49

@Ohgoodness34 haha sorry Grin they do look good though don't they. I have decided to put one or two gifts away for her birthday and get her these. She hasn't asked for a lot anyway hence why I was looking for ideas on here but now she's seen these they are the gift shes really hoping for. Hoping to get a deal Friday if I see one will post on here
