Just as the title says!

4 yr old DD hasn't asked for anything yet. Last year she asked for chocolate coins! I think we're going for Lego.

Everyone else?

Dd's birthday is the beginning of December, it's a nightmare trying to sort out presents for both.
She's getting a bike and kitchen for Christmas haven't a clue about her birthday. Might give her the kitchen for her birthday.

Dd may get a new doll, playmobil or slyvanian, puzzles, games, books...maybe a toy laptop that she fan practice her letters and counting...

My ds will be 4 on boxing day. All he has asked for is squishys, mashems, slime and playdough. He's also mentioned a kitchen on a couple of occasions but I might save that for his birthday instead.

NatureGal · 19/10/2019 22:59

Mine is getting the Kindi Kids supermarket, trolley and doll for her birthday at the end of November. Christmas she is getting the Playmobil children's hospital, ambulance, jigsaws and books. She has been on about more Sylvanian Families though today as she loves that too.

mogtheexcellent · 19/10/2019 23:04

Dd was 4 last year. Her christmas list comprised a flamingo outfit and her own pritt stick. Santa obliged so we bought her a disco light as our present.

Family bought her sylvanian families furniture for her dolls house.

Hope that helps. fwiw this year she wants blu tac and a new puzzle

Dinosauratemydaffodils · 19/10/2019 23:31

Ds is getting playmobil, a family membership to the local park with roller coasters and animatronic dinosaurs (2 of his favourite things), books, jigsaws and a board game.

IamMoana · 19/10/2019 23:41

Mine has asked for some Lego, LOLs & a plant for her room (random). She gets to put 3 things on her list to Father Christmas that she'd really love him to bring her. I'll add some Smiggle bits, books, board game, Lush bath bomb. She seems to have grown up all of a sudden.

CatteStreet · 19/10/2019 23:52

Orchard Toys floor puzzles (road, town, junctions).
A few add on bits for her wooden train set.
Books, books, books.
A beautiful handmade felt nativity set.
A knitted blanket for her bed.
Stocking fillers.

She's all about Barbie recently!

Barbie house
Styling head and makeup set
Barbie horse and carriage

Dress up shoes set

My DD was 4 last year & also has her birthday just before Christmas- it’s hard work trying to come up with presents for both when they are so close together!
For her birthday she got
a styling head
Playmobil
Crafty bits

For Christmas her main presents were
A scalextric set
Barbie
Moana costume
Keyboard (from grandparents)

She’s now approaching 5 and this year will be getting
Our generation doll
A recorder (not sure my ears will like that though Grin)
Elsa (frozen 2) costume

For Christmas we are thinking of getting her
A double stroller pushchair for her baby dolls
Hermione’s wand
Anna (frozen 2) costume

Probably a small set of Lego friends too.

NannaNoodleman · 20/10/2019 08:33

DS (just turned 4):

He's asked for a remote controlled car.

We'll also get him some books, and a new winter coat and boots.

Family will buy him Lego or bits to add to his train track.

LunaLovesgood · 20/10/2019 08:59

DD will be 4 in feb amd we've got her the Barbie campervan, Barbie horse set and a few smaller Barbie and LOL bits for the stocking.

The main criteria this year is Barbie so we've obliged.

Family have got her a cry baby, tootie playdoh unicorn and some our generation dolls.

Everything is off her list and I have to keep reminding her Santa won't be able to bring everything she ask for Hmm

Last year our 4 year olds got their own sellotape dispenser in their stockings. Best present ever and used every day!

notmytea · 23/10/2019 20:16

Mine started school this year and since has ditched all toys in favour of writing, reading, colouring and craft so I'm buying a load of stationary bits from The Works, some hair stuff from Claire's, books and perhaps some Playmobil to convince her she's still a child!
