Christmas presents for toddler boy and 6 year old girl

6 replies

I've been given the task of purchasing Christmas presents for the children of a family in need, the little boy is 2.5 and the girl is almost 6. The budget is £60 each. Need to get the presents wrapped and delivered by 23rd at the latest so relying on Amazon prime and Argos etc. Was thinking about doing them a little stocking plus a few gifts, any suggestions on what to get them? The girl is into anything 'girly' dolls, unicorns etc and the little boy loves paw patrol.

Paw Patrol have a few playsets and figures on Amazon, I'm sure I've seen some

For the girl a unicorn craft set perhaps? I'll have a look for you now...

What about aqua doodle or similar for the boy? My 2yo loves his and it's mess free colouring! He is also getting the postbox game from orchard games. Balance bike is another one for this year though mine may be a little young at just 2. As for stocking fillers, Chad valley miniature downcast vehicles, chocolate. Lidl wooden train, chocolate coins and large tube of smarties.
A football or soft ball. Jigsaws or puzzles where you put the shape into a certain space on the board.

Stockings are a lovely idea, some suggestions:

Girl

  • bath bomb
  • funky lip balm
  • nail vanish - loads of kids friendly ones around
  • fluffy or sparkly or unicorn notebook and pen
  • sticker/activity book, the usborne sticker Dolly books are great, there is a unicorn one on Amazon (may not fit in the stocking though, roll up?)
  • slipper socks
  • pretty hair clips
  • small polly pocket set
  • small craft set, foil art / sewing
  • cuddly toy

Larger gift ideas:

  • Barbie, huge range available. It went for bigger set, the ambulance is popular and is reduced on Amazon at the mo. Barbie mermaid dolls are also very popular and they are in the Argos 2 for £15 offer
  • Lego Friends
  • Doll styling head
  • something like the Pets Alive Flamingo or Llama, very popular toy, not too faddy and little boy would like it too

Younger boy ideas for stocking:

  • bubbles
  • vehicles of any sort!
  • bath bomb
  • bath toys
  • colouring book crayons stickers
  • cuddly toy
  • small ball
  • book with noisy buttons
  • paw patrol figures
  • dinosaur egg toy

Larger ideas:

  • paw patrol play set
  • younger age orchard toy games - postbox one is good
  • remote control car - there are some in Argos 2 for £15 offer and definitely suitable from 2.5 year
  • Duplo

Are you able to go to any shops as I would think a trip to supermarkets and home bargains and you’d have it sorted in good time

6yo girl:
Hama beads
Gel pens
My Fairy Garden set
Bracelet bead set
The ‘Chad Valley sparkle box’ set of craft supplies is such good value for money.
Unicorn onesie
Polly pocket

Some absolutely brilliant ideas thank you Smile think I'll be going for something barbie for the girl and paw patrol for the boy supplemented with Argos 2 for £15 and a trip to home bargains for stocking fillers.
