Uneven amount of gifts! Help me

[Statsquestion1]

I’ve gone and done it again…dd12 has 30 gifts and ds10 has 23 😅

I need to balance it out. (and no, I don’t want to take away seven of hers)

so far I’ve thought of
a rubix cube
a plain chocolate orange( I had an order age one but forgot he doesn’t like orange flavour!)
a fidget toy of some sort

hit me with ideas please…nothing too big and no major tat. I like useful gifts.

You don’t need equal amounts of gifts

you should be vaguely aware of on average spending the same amount although that can vary year by year

Handwriting pens, diary cuddle cushion gloves

Put some away for birthdays. They have enough.

i literally said I’m not doing that. Thank you though.

Handwriting pens is a good shout! Yes!

Books are always a good shout.
A collectible figure e.g. dinosaur/Funkopop?
Some quirky sweets e.g. freeze dried/A American candy
A little fun game e.g. top trumps based on one of his interests
Hoodie with his favourite band etc
I've bought my daughter one of those boxing things...you wear a headband and the ball is attached...looks fun
The one person tennis game
Some pens etc - nice bits for school
A keyring or mouse mat personalised with a favourite photo of his
A little hand hand held Simon game - my son loves his

I’m very aware of what I have spent. I still like it to be equal.

Take seven from DD and keep them for their birthday. Problem solved.

Another book would be no harm 🙌

so…

book
rubix cube
pens
Plain chocoate orange

3 to go 🤣

Read the OP, I’m not doing that!

Uno? Top Trumps? Small lego set?

I needed to bulk out DS13 so wrapped up Twister for him which was on DS7 pile

Blanket
Cuddle cushion
Pj's
Slippers
Water bottle
Selection box

We have uno and a lot of tops trumps and he is getting two medium sized Lego sets already. It’s hard when they are so good with their toys and stuff. They look after everything so well and keep them for a good while.

My 10 year old Nephew is getting a fidget pen as one of his gifts, could that be an idea?

Some ideas from my DS9.5 list

Switch game & matching squishmallow (we’ve gone for Sonic Shadow)
If you have pets: Cat/Dog manual, how to speak cat/dog
Magic 8 ball
Fun reusable ice cubes (DS has cat ones)
Paint by stickers book
Bluetooth keyboard/mouse in favourite colour
Switch thumb grips

Slippers!!! He actually needs slippers! Off to look up a cuddle cushion too! Thank you

Table football, sports top, selection box, quiz book, fact book, board game.

He has a PS but I’m avoiding getting him a game as a present because he will want to play it all day otherwise 😅

The mint choc oranges are nice if he doesn't like orange. As are the milk choc ones...not recommending the caramel one though! As can guess, have been quality checking some!l. Have got mine some space food - ice cream flavoured freeze dried candy. And other consumables suck as pringles etc. Also some shoe ninjas - meant to help absorb odours. Lindt teddy. Fluffy socks / slipper socks. Those 4 in 1 pens from bic are always popular.

Lights for around his screen when playing online, light up ear phones, those banana boot things if he plays football, chocolate?

Dressing gown

stickers

Acrylic pens (both my DC requested these)

chocolate money

joke book

bubble bath

a football

yoyo

Small nerf gun or spare bullets if he already has gun (s). Or a nerf vest up hold bullets.

Some great suggestions thanks everyone!

Shower gel, socks, t-shirt, pencil case, small torch

Is he a cub/scout? Mine likes compact cutlery set, kids multi tool thing, various camping related items

You can get mint chocolate oranges now
