Things to buy for DD9

5 replies

jlgsy94 · 24/10/2020 08:18

I need help from all you MN Christmas fairies out there!

It is proving beyond difficult to think of things to get DD9 for Christmas. She already has her own smart tv and xbox one. She doesn’t really play with toys, but she’s given me a few things as suggestions;

School backpack and lunchbox and plushies from LankyBox (a youtuber she likes), the 5 things are $204.95 incl. shipping

Artsy/crafty stuff

Skull clothes

Pc

Hubba bubba and tik taks (specifically cherry cola Grin )

Any recommendations for artsy/crafty things? Also, where can you buy skull clothes for children online (think emo skulls - her words!)

As for the pc, I’ve asked what she wants it for as she can already play Roblox on her xbox. She said she wants it for school work and roblox.. I’ve said she can already play her game on her xbox and she usually does her school work on my iPad. I am finding it a bit hard to justify spending money on this, unless it might be a good investment for future use too? Any advice on this?

Also if you have any other good present suggestions please fire away!

DD is 7 so a bit younger and I'm looking for ideas too but she is getting roller skates and an Alexa, colouring pencils and colouring book. I might get her a digital camera and a guitar.

I don't know much about Roblox but DS who is 9 does it on his Kindle or PS4 and he said the other day something about it closing down in January 2020 so maybe have a check if that's the case before you get a PC.

Hama beads are good if she likes Roblox as she'll be able to make pixel art out of them. I got some for my DD who will have just turned 9 as she loves Minecraft and we'll be able to make Minecraft themed things. She's also into YouTubers and I couldn't believe the price of merch when I looked 😅

Soap making kit
“Create This Book” is a good stocking filler
Watercolour pencils and a nice set of brushes

Regarding the PC, if she wants to learn Lua and code her own Roblox games she needs a PC as can’t do it on an iPad.
Roblox isn’t shutting down, it is just a stupid rumour online.
