Mines 3.5 and santa puts the things in his stocking and I give him the rest. If he's good then santa said he can have a little wooden car (handmade by the elves), a book, cozy socks, an orange and chocolate coins.

Cars cars and hot wheels mainly!

Mine only wants paw patrol and she already has enough to start a shop. Various people are getting her paw patrol clothing and a paw patrol stamp set. I also have a paw patrol wooden jigsaw for her.

If anyone that mentioned it has a link to a 3 year old friendly marble run please share 😊

We got the galt one when my older kids were that age. They spent the whole of Christmas playing with it and barely looked at anything else! It’s still used regularly over 12 years later! It’s plastic but very durable.

Mine is getting a Nintendo switch to share from us (Santa not getting the credit for that one!) And Lego from us. Old before his time because "anything big brother can do, so I can!"

Mine is getting a mini micro scooter, a pogo jumper, and lots of other little bits (I’m planning to wrap up eg a new toothbrush, pants, socks etc that she needs).

A balance bike. One of the larger ones. A specific chocolate santa he's been after since they hit the shops, some play dough and a sponge. I helped him write his letter to post last night.

He's getting a remote control digger after a very nice girl let him play with hers at the park. It's technically 8+ but he's not a child that's rough on his toys and since we've seen him use it we're happy he won't be frustrated!
Octonauts book
Buzz lightyear helmet
Book about space

From us he's getting the Brio train that really produces steam.

He had the Galt marble run for his 3rd birthday and it has been well used here. I liked that when he was a bit older there would be appropriate expansions, but he's happy with the base set for now. He does need help with the building, but it's surprisingly robust when up

This is what we have so far, DD was 3 in Sept

Stocking
Hair clips
Hairbrush (can’t ever find hers)
Bubble bath in a snow globe
2 bottles of the squirty coloured bath soap
Chocolate coins
Bubble wand
Magnifying glass
Little set of mini Fireman Sam books
Another book (Acorn wood Christmas one as she likes those)

Too big for stocking but from
FC
Toy trumpet (she asked for this, I think it is because Peppa Pig has one??!)
Tow truck (she loves Gecko’s Garage)

I’m also getting some magnatiles (or a copy) and a money box from us plus a game TBC.

She is the only grandchild and will get the entire contents of Smyths from them so we aren’t doing much. I have also got a Peter Rabbit Xmas book for Christmas Eve. I don’t do a Christmas Eve box but do a new Christmas book instead.

I'm not entirely sure what dgs is getting from dd (his mum) I know she has bought the Melissa and Doug Sandwich shop though. I know ds has bought him the Schleich dinosaur set with a volcano because he brought it for me to wrap as well as some walkie talkies. From gangan he's got the duplo gingerbread house, playmobil rescue set and playmobil tractor and a wooden hairdresser set as he likes to do dd's hair using his tool set. There is probably more that I've forgotten tbf

@Aria999 There’s a Paw Patrol marble run on Amazon for £19.99

RewildingAmbridge · 29/11/2022 10:02

We do stockings from father Christmas and the rest from us. DS is almost 4 but last year his main present was a bike, in his stocking he gets little things like a story card for his yoto player, a hot wheels car, a book, some novelty socks that match DHs some chocolate, last year chococo mini chocolate robots which he loved and still has one left! A bath bomb from lush, a schleich animal and a few other bits and pieces, colouring pencils/stickers etc
