SECRET KIDDIES XMAS SWAP - PLEASE READ!!!

[pie]

Ok, inspired by everyones generosity and an idea I saw I'm suggesting we do a secret kiddies christmas swap.

How it would work is this. If you want to sign up your child(ren) then you list them here. Their ages (don't have to give their names)sexes and their likes and dislikes.

Then you will email me your address. I will then give each person one address and the poster whose child they are swapping presents with. The present will have a value between £1 and £5, I say value cos then you don't have to buy anything new. But it must be in good enough condition to give as a present iykwim.

So then your children would get a surprise gift from a total stranger.

Ok this sounds stupid doesn't it?

Anyone game?

What a lovely idea.

I'll join in although am happy just to send one (maybe to someone with lots of kids) as dd will be 7.5 months and probably won't care as long as there's wrapping paper to play with!

definitely a cool idea!

DS1(age nearly 6)
DS2(age 3)
Both love books/stickers, anything really!

I think 4 week old DD can miss out too!

Can you please email me pie(at)sabian(dot)net by Sunday. I want to be able to send all the info out by Monday evening.

First class last Xmas posting is Saturday 20 December, second class is Thursday 18 December, if possible please get proof of postage. If anything happens and you can't get your gift our, please email me so I can let your recepient know.

Any other takers? I think that there are 23 children signed up, this would work ALOT better with even numbers...anyone?

I also just wanted to say that I don't mind being 'paired up' with an older child. I have a few ideas for bigger kid prezzies in mind
