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.

What does he need? Socks? Underwear? School stationery supplies? Sports gear?

Pokémon cards?

Magazine subscription
craft kit of some kind
3d modelling pen
stuff for swimming? Goggles/ swim shorts
beqxh towel
mirror for bedroom? Hair stuff?! (Getting to that age)
younger boys body spray/fragrance

Please read the OP

We had one a couple of years ago and it was a waste of money IMO. Not sure if they’ve changed since but it was super fiddly and don’t really do what it was supposed to.

lynx spray set
headtorch
pack of phone charging cables
portable charger for phone
phone case
new school bag
pencil case
portable table tennis that can be used on a kitchen table (amazon have them)
led light up shoe laces

Tamagotchi! I am still tempted to get for adult sons..but I won't. They might be quite pricey though..but the new ones sound so fab!

You don't need to even out

Is this actually a usual/ normal amount of presents to receive for a child?

I’d have thought anything over 5 would be highly unusual?

Baby Jesus
Mary
Joseph
The three wise men
The three shepherds
Crib
Donkey
Oxen
Book about the meaning of the birth of Jesus/Christmas

10 for your son = 33; 3 for your dd = 33.

Are you and your DH called Mr and Mrs Dursley?

I don't care if they don't have equal amount of gifts cause I would have spent the same even if someone's pile is smaller.

Fidget pen
3d pen thing
Books
Cards

Dobble.

I know this is not the question but ….. this sounds like an insanely excessive amount of presents?! what do you do with all these items in your house?

Consider being more condescending next time, I don't think your tone here is nearly sneery and self righteous enough.

FYI I think a plain chocolate orange is dark chocolate instead of milk but is still orange flavoured.

Well some are clothing so eventually get grown out of, some are foods…so they’ll be gone, some is make up,perfume, bath bombs etc so again they will run out.
lego gets made and put on a shelf or Lego box
books…go on a book shelf.

is he quite crafty? my son when he was younger loved clay-he made some really good stuff, watched vids on youtube and copied them

OP, I have a ten year old. Small things he likes include fidget toys, and I have also ordered him a spy pen, which allows you to write invisible messages and shine a light on them to reveal them.

3d pen from Argos?

More or less game
Puzzle or sudoku book
Bath bomb or bubble bath
Something hobby related - football socks, swimming goggles, tennis balls etc
Wallet
Gibbets if he has crocs

I don't get this
Do you just get the same number of presents for them both then?
Not just spend the same amount on each?

I mean they're old enough to know some things cost more than others anyway

No the amount I spend is within the same bracket usually 600-700. But I like it to look the same too.

Ok I'll leave others to respond

A lamp or LED strip lights for his room
