I'd like to get the kids a joint xmas pressie but haven't a clue what.

Have 2 dd's who will be 9 and 7 and a ds who will be 4.

Don't really want to spend alot, but will welcome any suggestions.

I was going to suggest a trampoline as well - but the others go there first.

We have a PS2, would dearly dearly love to get them a trampoline as they have been on a friends and all loved it to bits, but don't think I can stretch that far.

Craft stuff sounds good, could buy one of those draw trolly things to put it all in too.

Stacks on ebay. Could it be joint birthday and xmas?

throckenholt · 26/10/2006 13:55

just been googling - there seem to be loads of places with them on "sale" at the moment - maybe end of season stock. Depending on the size and if you have and enclosure - seems to be anything from just over £100 to about £500.

It could have been a joint birthday and xmas pressie yeah as they are all right next to each other, but i have already got their birthday stuff.

Will have a look around and see what I can find.

Are they hard to assemble ??

Hmm definatly couldn't spend more than £100 on one tbh. Can only spend that if I get my parents to chip in lol.

Twister might be a good game they can all play together
Or you can get children's space hoppers in varying sizes to suit them all
Arts and crafts is always popular in our house, if a bit lacking in WOW factor. We did t-shirt painting for ds' 7th birthday party and it gripped children from 3-11.

Hmm think perhaps I should leave the trampoline until the summer, that way I can put a bit by each week for it.
Garden is big enough but in too much of a state at the mo i think.

Might go with the craft stuff instead

How about a stack of games they can play together. Things like Buckaroo, operation etc.

gscrym · 26/10/2006 14:13

If you could stretch to £114, this ones on Ebay for a buy it now.

Happy Bouncing
