[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]How does she know about this stuff? [/b] How old is your DD?

I guess mine is still pretty young, but she doesn't even know these things exist yet...she's in K.[/quote]
She’s 8. I’m not really sure. Girl talk at school and play dates? Gifts she sees at birthday parties? [/quote]

I wondered the same, OP.  Our 8yo was only recently introduced to LOL dolls by a friend who gave her a present at her bday party (even though we said no gifts please, although that's another thread, lol).  However, she doesn't know about any other LOL toys.  She's really never even had a specific ask for Christmas--she doesn't get exposed to a lot of product marketing.

Curious, does your kid watch a lot of TV, with commercials?  Ours gets limited screens, and only Netflix on the weekends with no commercials--so that may explain how your kid is getting wind of so many toys.

If I were in your shoes and didn't want to limit TV consumption, I might just set specific limits with the price of large presents.[/quote]
