Christmas presents

My daughter turns 7 this November, she’s asked for loads of craft things! (Pen creator studio, make your own sticker machine are her 2 that she’s desperate for!) she’s also having Lego friends sets, and then ‘how to draw’ books! She also keeps asking for a Bitzee but I have no idea about that 😂🤷🏼‍♀️ xx

Ahhh same here! Last couple years it’s been Barbies Barbies Barbies and all of a sudden she’s completely dropped them.. going to steal the inspo too! 😁

@Natalie my daughter got a bitzee last year. She’s played with it twice. 🙄. I’ve got the pen creator on my list as she said she wanted that.

@Sarah ohh really 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 I might take that off her birthday list then if she actually remembered and she’s sad she didn’t get it then I’ll add it to her Christmas list 😂 The pen thing does look good! X

@Natalie she also loves slime so I will get her some slime making kits. A squishy maker. She wants a Fitbit and Roblox money. I want to get her a new bike as she’s outgrown her current one. I just feel like I’m getting nowhere. My 6 month old is so much easier to buy for 🤣🤣

@Ellis so difficult! I look at most toys and think… what a load of crap! But I don’t want her to be disappointed. I spend my year saving up to make it such a special day and this year I feel like I have nothing to buy her!

The kids in my daughters school are all crazy on stitch and angel at the moment don't know if that's everywhere or just hit her school 😅 but my daughter loves music so the present she really wants is a 'proper keyboard like at school' I'm going to see if I can get the stickers for the keys and some easy music that she can have a go at playing. Other than that she wants a bitzee (I saw Sarah you said your daughter hardly used it though so maybe not) she wants a baby monkey little live pets and a spa box as we do mini spa days at home sometimes we just put those soft headbands on, soak our feet and listen to music, I also have a 6 month old so she wants a crawling doll for them both. Have you had a look through the smyths catalogue together?

@Dani sounds great. My daughter has a keyboard with stickers. Again so hit and miss. She mentioned live pets but are they worth the money? We’ve been to Smyths, looked at catalogues, sat online and she’s so hard this year!!!! What she really wants is to be a YouTuber and a famous Roblox player 🤣🤣. So she wants a fancy iMac! As if! Kids got big dreams. I think the bitzee is cool! It’s basically a fancy tamagotchi. She was desperate for it. And it sits on her shelf. I probably play with it more. 🤣. Your daughter may enjoy it. Spa box sounds cute. X

So far I've got a bike, Digital camera, pottery making kit, miss nella nail Polish, a secret diary with a lock, a write your own story book thing, the magic tree house series of bookd and some clothes. Then just little bits like hair accessories, yoto cards and pens etc for her stocking

@Becky what camera did you get?

@Sarah exactly! 🤣 it’s stressful! And we are the same as you , turning 7 end of January so double to struggle buying for 🥲🫨

@Ellis I’ve bit the bullet and just got on with it. If you need inspiration this is what I’ve got her so far: A bike (was always going to be a bike) as she’s outgrown hers. Squishy maker with refills So slime twist ‘n’ slime mixer with extra slime refills A garmin vivofit watch A Roblox book with £40 worth of Roblox money Pen creator studio Funlockets secret diary Adopt me mystery pets set (Roblox game she loves) Pigs on trampolines game Wireless earphones for her iPad New iPad case (with keyboard) A digital camera for vlogging (as she wants to be a YouTuber 🤣) Some plushies from America of her favourite Roblox characters/youtubers A unicorn crystal growing terrarium Her stocking is usually girlie bits like bath bombs, nail varnishes, books etc. getting her some face crystals and hair chalks as well.

Mine loves lego making with disney princesses and bracelet making

My 6 year old boy is the same - I’ve got him Lego and Roblox voucher which he asked for, then things like gaming pillow and gaming blanket, he loves bath bombs from lush so going to get them too, ninjago and Minecraft socks, and also got him a how to tell the time game. And air hockey. Really other than that I haven’t got anything else 😂
