Strangest thing your DC have requested for Christmas.

[DominicRaabsTravelAgent]

Poor deprived DD aged 3 asked for Juice on Christmas Eve. Queue me risking to the shop to buy a carton of juice and wrapping it when she’s gone to bed.

It was totally worth it, her face in the morning was pure happiness “Santa brought me juice!”.

So what’s the strangest or simplest thing that your DC have asked for?

A pair of red glittery light up wellies. Aged 3. She had seen them in the hypermarket on holiday in France and luckily mentioned it in the drive back to the ferry.

Cue a quick pit stop there "for snacks" and Santa's present to her was secured.

Christmas morning she put them on and wore them all day.

Yesterday- ‘a spatula for nair cream’ actually added to Christmas list by dd (12 but has additional needs) that has to be a winner!

My wee boy asked for “hard water”. Got him an ice-cube tray!

@NormaSnickers I saw an extendable back scratcher in Tiger yesterday 🙂

A merman soft toy is this year's request. Impossible unless I get one specially made 😖😫

An electric fan in the shape of a chicken. He ended up with two!

When he was about 12 a Toaster and kettle so he can have tea and toast whenever he wants. The kitchen is never off limits

Tarantula.

@CatOfTheLand would bubble guppies plushies work? There's a mermaid boy called Gil.

A ginger beard!

@CatOfTheLand Jojo have a mermaid with a removable which may fit a boy rag doll?

A removable tail!

My 3 yo wanted a seagull.

I found a stuffed toy seagull which is still one of her faves to this day.

@CatOfTheLand the internet can provide:

Or there are soft versions on Etsy, which look.. intriguing

Hetty Hoover. A real one.

(He's been told categorically that our existing hoover works fine and we're not getting a new one. He's not interested in actually hoovering, he just wants her as a friend to play with. 😂

(Found a plush Hetty on EBay and am hoping that will suffice.)

One of my Granddaughters, last year, asked for some plastic ants. I got them from Amazon (where else)

@RestingStitchFace
What about a Hetty Hoover desk vacuum? Bit more interactive

Pomegranate seeds! Just turned 4!

@FelicityBeedle -oooooh! Googling now!

A potato.

Handcuffs. Aged 3 or 4.

A big brown marble... we got one for ds3. The most underwhelming gift ever!!

My 8 year old has asked for a dishwasher ( we have one)
