Bábógbaby. It's a teddy bear that teaches your young child Irish.
The boy (5) seems to be big into Bakugans and Hexbugs
The girl (5) is getting a kitchen.
Books and spending time reading with them.
I dunno.
I let Santa decide!

Bakugan is on the scene here as well as Transformer merch.

Moody's Downgrades Rating of SantaI was so upset I couldn't read the rest of it.
We do three presents per child. One big one medium one small. My boy is 3 and my girl is 2. We set a limit of a max of 100 per child.
You can get easily carried away.
We got a wooden castle for the wee man to play with all his little soldiers and action figures and a kitchen for the wee girl. Books are a great present and board games.

Was looking up online, the big toys this year seems to be that pooping dog think its about £20
(http://spendmoneyonline.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/kackel-dackel-pooping-dog.jpg)
Also flicker scooters seem to be popular, about £60

Santa is bringing a bike for the 4 year old and a Flicker for the 6 year old. Small one obsessed about Thomas the Tank Engine so 2 new engines and she wants some more dolls, Bratz or baby Annabel. If you want stocking fillers we get loads of jigsaws. The kids would sit contented for ages doing them.
Going over to my sisters house on xmas morning is like walking into an oneills/soccer shop/toy store/game shop rolled into one. Absolutely ridiculous the amount of things they get.
Jerseys. footballs, football boots, x box games, tracksuits, toys galore etc etc And always something big as well as the copious amounts of other stuff
The wee lads 3 and half and think hes getting a ds and games and transformer things, buzz lightyear things, power rangers stuff, dvds,books, games etc etc. Though he would do your head in cos on all them ads on nick jnr or whatever continually show toys and every single thing that comes on he is shouting i want that from christmas.
That sounds like my sisters house - one sitting room is a like a toy store on Christmas morning, way OTT.
The wee fella is 4 - santa has been asked for a Leap Pad, a green sword (his request) and some power rangers. He'll get a few small bits/stocking fillers - jigsaws (he loves them), couple of books, Lego.
The wee doll is 2.5yrs and knows exactly what she wants - a kitchen, a doll (she has about a dozen already!) and a surprise. Agains she'll get a couple of books, jigsaws, girly stuff ie hair clips, hair bands, etc.
They'll probably get a few new outfits as well but they'll not be from Santa. We what they will get in other presents from Granny X 2, Godparents, etc they'll get more than enough.
I have to buy my niece something, she is 13, her Birthday is a few days before Christmas. Don't know what to get her. Any suggestions?
She is big into One Direction but I think she is 1D stuff from her Mum.
I was thinking of getting her this:

Struggling also, my youngest girl is fine but my 11 year old (well she'll be 11 in two weeks) is either looking something way to dear or nothing, i know what option i like ;)

A men's public toilet? Strange but very original.

Hi Bensars, I too noted this. I see the helium is on sale on amazon for about £20. I dunno what to do. £40 on a novality item. Might just get her clothes or vouchers.
Unless you want to come in halfers with me on this?
Skylanders for the wii/xbox/ps3 seems a big thing this year.
The Beano, the Dandy and Now that's what i call music are the staples and the rest varies.
