I have two age 2 & 5 I've spent £50 each up to now will be buying a couple more but not spending a lot, they will appreciate anything as I've never gone over the top they don't know any different. My oldest has asked for a lego house and plane (£50 & £60) which he will not be getting! Who spends that type of money on lego?? I have bought him smaller sets of lego £3.99 which I know he will love just as much
Erm, hello!
Lego is expensive, but it lasts - we still have sets which are kicking 40 years old! And Lego never gets boring.
Yes I'll do that. Then send him an email picture of them opening " his" present!
I bet if you explain to the children that they've been able to help poor little children who don't have much that they'll be happy - certainly happier than yourself.
Please don't take that as saying that I think he's right, I don't think it's a fair thing ro up ans decide this all of a sudden, but it has probably hurt you more than it will them.
It's difficult to give an accurate figure because it varies, sometimes from 400-700 ish - and ill not justify that.
I buy good stuff which lasts, she gets all her jammies, socks, pants, any little subscriptions, etc most off the stuff that she'll need for the year. It works out at less than £15 a week.
I don't generally buy stuff through the year, ao this is the chance to stock up.
Also, it ia mostly worth much more than I pay.
Finally, she doesn't ask for much. One ywar, it was colouring books. This year it's a real fairy, real pixie dust and a magic wand. Wish santa luck. ..!
