What gifts have gone over particularly well with your kids?What are some of the BEST gifts your kids have been given?
For my son (3yrs almost 4) the best gifts he has ever been given was his Lego's, Hotwheels Cars, and his Imaginarium Wooden Train Set.



For my 2year old daughter the best gifts she has ver been given is her Animal Planet Collection of animals (Sea Life, Dino and Wildlife Playset, Cabbage Patch Doll, Diego DVD's and her Diego Figurine. She LOVES Diego. =)
So far it has been the guitar for my youngest and the digital cam for my eldest. BUT.. this year I just know they are going to be thrilled with their gifts. My youngest has been wanting a *professional* keyboard and I got her a pretty amazing one. I've been dying to just hand it over already but I'm holding out till Christmas.

My eldest is getting *her* first laptop and shes been wanting one for a couple of years so I'm thinking it will go over quite well.

This year is definitely the *best gifts* year so far. I'm probably more excited than them but I know these gifts will be really appreciated.

Oh and my youngest got an UglyDoll for her bday. She has used that thing more than I could imagine (as a pillow, as a snuggly etc)What are some of the BEST gifts your kids have been given?

My mother-in-law got my three young girls a beautiful play kitchen for Christmas this year, and all the wood play food, it's a really great gift and I'm sure they'll love it.



The kidlets have received every big, flashing light up, noise-making interactive toy there is over the years from doting grandparents and aunts and uncles. And universally, they spend about 2 minutes fascinated with the toy... and head straight for the box it came in. They do love the toys, but boxes never get old to them while they're toddlers.
