Very 'Ungrown up' gifts?

[73kittycat73]

Love this section of MN. Reading a lot of the threads, everyone is asking for (Apart from Lego!) very 'grown up' presents/present ideas. Like candles, face cream, scarfs, etc. Am I the only one with a very different type of gift? I'm 47 YO and I'm getting, amongst other things, Sims 4 expansions, The Simpsons lounge pants, A Harley Quinn graphic novel...Are any of you out there getting anything 'ungrown up?' Like any computer games for example?
Just curious really.

DH has Lego and I ordered myself a 'DesignerDoll' from Argos (which I may share with DD!) as it shares my name and has fabulous boots on!

I really like the usbourne magic painting books and always ask for them. I find them very therapeutic

I've also asked for Lego and Mario kart for my switch lite

A really nice colouring book and quality pens and pencils - lovely

Thanks for your replies. Good to see I'm not the only one! lol

Ive ordered this

Escape games are the order of the day for me, in a box, in a book or in real life. Pre-covid I got DH go-karting and we all did it. DH and I sometimes give each other video games. I always want board games.

[/quote] Lol, very good!

Lego, a squishmallow (which I actually bought from Aldi and have given to my mum to wrap for me!), character pyjamas, quite possibly a game for my Nintendo Switch, board/card games...anything toiletry/smelly, scarf-like, candles or alcohol are lost on me...I basically have the mentality of a 9 year old (might be being generous there)!

A plush Morris toy from the new Marvel movie Shang-Chi and the Ten Rings.

DH and I just treated ourselves to the Lego Home Alone house

An usborne sticker book!

I am currently trying to talk me out of this

I want the Bluey Grannies figures. Not for the children, for me.

Oh my lord @Prokupatuscrakedatus that is epic and i so want one !

Really wish I'd got the Lego Ewok village when it was available.

I'm asking DH for the Zelda game for my switch. Lol!

Moneys tight this year so earlier in the year I got me a replica Darth Bader lightsaber handle, a Death Star puzzle maze game, dr who book Fame novel ok second hand but thrilled anyway and William talbot Tudor music 11 cd set. I can’t wait.

ive asked for a build a bear Oogie Boogie! and i know im getting a new gaming pc and i could not be more thrilled! :3

@MrsPear Isn't it - it is way out of budget, but I hope DS will pass his Abitur this year and then ..... (He is a fan, too!)

And then there is the ISS in Lego.

I've asked for lego and leopard dungarees. My brother is getting an adult size space hopper this year...

YABVVVU to enjoy Sims 4! Sims 2 FOREVER!!!

But back to the question... For me it's Playmobil, which I 'collect' (ahem, play with, with the kids I look after!) and maybe the odd picture book (the latest, which I had for my birthday, was 'Bear Shaped' - only read that if you're feeling strong!!) I do love computer games but just download them myself from Steam. I am looking forward to the next Planet Zoo expansion which will probably be out around Christmas though! My 'Big Thing' last year was an indoor trampoline with bright rainbow bungees! I am a massive child and I don't deny it.

I want the Stranger Things pop up book next May.

Is it Rosie? She has great boots

I just ordered myself a Christmas onesie for the H&M kids section...
