I know, right?! I guess better here than on the threads trying to decide how much intenet/phone usage is appropriate for a teenager/high schooler. I love when the moms of preschoolers start postig on those types ot threads, calling people terrible parents for allowing their 16 year old to have a smart phone

Your teenager is still into Melissa and Doug? |
Visiting through recent topics. I do think it a bit odd that op phrased it as "toys or games" though. That sounds like she's asking for a younger crowd - one doesn't think of teens and tweens as being into toys. |
| NES Classic. Huge hit! |
Congrats for getting one! We tried for weeks but always got to the store right after they sold out. |
| Cozmo |

+2 VR glasses
- mini fridge for water and reptile food - Game of Things (original version of course) - clothes - money - latest novel in the series they are both reading - Say anything game Flop: -tween daughter received a mini singer sewing machine. It's crap and more toy than practical. It's going back. |
| My kindergartener got her 12 year old brother a pig splat ball from the school holiday store for $2. That was pretty entertaining for a while. DS threw it up and it got stuck on the vaulted popcorn ceiling above our stairs--he had to throw something else at it to get it down. Little sisters were thoroughly amused. |
Apparently production is ramping up so soon anyone who wants one should be able to get one! If your kids play a lot of games and shop at a local game store frequently, they may be able to get a sales associate to call them (or you) the second they are in. Our friends also bought one but it ended up being a dud and not working at all. Hoping they can get a replacement one from Nintendo soon! |
Thatbis so cute. Last year my seven year old bought my ten year old a farting pig from the dollr bin. It was made of rubber and when you squeezed it the thing made a raspberry sound from the butt.That thing was a huge holiday hit. Kid gifts are cute. |
Thinking the same thing. Wireless beats were a huge hit and oddly an electric blanket i bought on impulse. |
| What are the VR glasses? $15? Already at Marshall's? What do they do? Do they have to be attached to a game? |
My 10 year od played with it for hours. |
| Codenames was a hit (for 13 and 15 year-olds) |
| Aaron's thinking putty -- magnetic kind. |
