[stewart10]

9 Year Old Son - Chromebook & Lego Millenium Falcon are his 2 big things.
7 Year Old Daughter - Chromebook & Lego Friends pieces are her main things.

The 9 year old wrote on his letter to Santa for Covid to be gone, whilst the 7 year old is adamant that she's getting coal this year.

Got my 11 year old a switch, then a few dolls, daft lol houses or cars shite like that and bits of clothes.
Havent got a clue what to get an 11 year old girl these days can’t find much worth buying in the toy shops and she’s not bothered about clothes

Scary amounts some of you are spending!

My fear is some go into loads of debt. If you have it spend it. If you don't then people end up doing without. I've been in that position in my younger days and it just leads to the rest of the year being a struggle.

Isnt it!? People go mental haha. I thought we were bad.. but we generally tend to go more for volume rather than big one off spends.

18 year old daughter ... Dyson Straightners
9 year old daughter---- Nintendo switch
5 year old daughter...... New bike
21 month old Grandson....Balance Bike and Kitchen
17 Month Daughter.....Peppa pig kitchen

Haha a daughter younger than a Grandson. Good going that!

11 year old - new cricket bat, pads, gloves, new Xbox controller and a bass amp.

14 year old - Pandora charm, clothes and assorted hair and makeup 'things' that I don't really understand (mam is in charge of it).

 

[macum1920]

25 million for each daughter, only proviso is I have to win the Euro Millions tonight.
If I don’t win, lots of little things and a few hundred quid to get what they want.

Think I may need hair and makeup things for the 12 yr old. Haven't a clue though what would be considered decent, trendy, etc

Having 3 girls seems too hard. A lad would be easier

 

[Dan The Man]

Safc kit. Baby Safc onesie. Baby stuff.

it’ll only be 2 weeks old at Christmas and we don’t know the sex yet but had to get some Safc stuff for them

 

[Howard the Duck]

Does no one get their kids more modest presents or are they just not posting on this thread?

Body mists are popular with my daughter and her mates. She likes the Impulse in the fat clear bottles with names like Tropical Beach and Burnt Marshmallow. Not the skinny aerosols as apparently they are old lady smells?! So......? body sprays are a favourite too and Victoria's Secret if you are feeling flush. You can buy all of those in Superdrug. She likes Nyx for make up and Make Up Obsession pallets. Larger Boots stores sell both. Simple do nice skincare sets and it's gentle enough for teenage skin or she's mentioned a brand called The Ordinary. I've ordered her The Ordinary Balance set from Look Fantastic as that's supposed to be good for oily teenage skin. She likes perfume too but that's a personal choice depending on what scents she likes.

You are aware the VR Headsets are not meant for kids that young. This was at the top of a google search.

"Samsung Gear VR: Children under the age of 13 should not use the Gear VR. ... Sony PlayStation VR: The VR headset is not for use by children under the age of 12. HTC Vive: HTC doesn't specify an age, but advises young children not to use the product. Oculus Quest: Children under the age of 14 should not use the Quest.Dec 23, 2019"

Fancy ruining their Christmas.

Aye, colouring pens, colouring in books, puzzle books etc. for my five year old.

Or allowing them to reach adulthood without developmental issues depending on your point of view.

Do you worry about him going back in to school and hearing how all his mates got PS5’s and iPads etc?

It’s a she but no, do I fuck. Certainly not at five year old. I don’t actually think either of them are getting a “big” present as such this year. Like a bike etc.
