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

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.

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?
