Dd is 3 and her things look so much more fun and much bigger. In size. Not in cost.

Ds has:
Fleece Disney stitch blanket
Stitch plush
Two audio story CDs
Rugby ball
Spring back cricket wickets
Cricket gloves
Magnetic dartboard
Jelly bean dispenser and big tub of jelly beans
Dinosaur fossil (main gift, £150, it’s what he’s asked for - collects them).
Couple of DVDs
Couple of games.

He’s got a stocking too.

But put it together and it looks a bit meh. He doesn’t like reading much. He has a PlayStation he doesn’t use and an iPad which he uses all the time. He has a camera. He doesn’t like Lego or anything like that. He doesn’t like clothes. I’m at a loss. I know it’s plenty really but put it next to dd’s brightly coloured pile of gifts and it looks a bit uninspiring.

I wrapped everything in brown paper last year and wrote names in gift tags from Santa. One big pile and they had lots of fun finding their gifts.

Stockings were left in front of the pile.

I have a 10 year old DS and he’ll be getting maybe 6 gifts. Had genuinely no idea people got their kids so many presents! We can afford to get more but I don’t want to spoil him. Not saying other people shouldn’t do it, I’m just genuinely blown away.
