Presents for kids

[Hunnie]

12 year old boy - likes crafts?, bikes and I'm not too sure what else. Hes just started high school and his mum hasn't got the most money in the world so I'm wondering as well about some nice designer/labelled clothes so that he has them for non uniform days? Labels always seemed pretty important when I was at high school?

2 year old boy - loves diggers and tractors but seems to have everything like that under the sun so thinking of something different?

Now the hard ones...

3 year old girl and a 7 year old. They already have real life ponies, cows, dogs, lambs etc. so needing ideas. What do 3 year old girls play with?! And even harder what do 7 year olds play with?!

12 year old boy if you don't fancy the labels there's loads of practical science stuff for that age range which is really good fun. In no way did I make a plaster of Paris brain the other year

3 year old girl easy peasy moonsand. Look it up. LO will love it the parents will hate you forever.

7 year old girl I think you are safe with he latest fad. Unfortunately it's the updated Furby and they're quite expensive.

2 year old boy what about something like dress up? Superhero or fireman etc

Get the 12 year old some sea money's or a worm farm thing surfy labels like quicksilver/billabong etc are usually good with that age group.

Lego for the younger one.

Girls..... Mmmmh. I dunno about girls!! I liked cars and he-man

Back to the 7 year old girl. You probably can't go wrong with glittery beads. You can get kits so they can design and make there own. Also at 7 my nieces were both mad on Barbie.
