My dd (11) absolutely LOVES the LED drawing board that was under a tenner. She got it as a wee thing on her brothers birthday the other week and hasn’t put it down

For my 8yo DD I've got:
Baby Alive Baby go bye bye - which she has been asking for since last Christmas but I couldn't get it at a decent price. I got it early this year!
Keyboard - this is a suprise. She does keyboard lessons at school which she loves so I think she's go to be very happy!
My DP is getting her a Designa friend doll which she's had her eye on.
I got some nice doll clothes from Frilly Lilly.

I’ve got my almost 12yo an electric guitar and amp. He’s wanted one for a while so he’s going to be delighted!

I’ve also got a lovely Hype hoodie, set of books and will be getting him a penknife too for whittling.

My 8yo DD has asked for the Kiddi Superstar microphone/DJ which I’ve ordered. I’ve been totally stuck on her this year so I’m glad she’s getting something she really wants.

I’ve also got her a lovely faux fur jacket and a Djeco scarf painting kit which looks beautiful. Will get a set of books too but not sure what yet.

Following with interest for other ideas!
