[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain how all of these 2.5 and 3 year-olds know what to ask for?  My (almost 3) DS has never asked me for anything (other than sweets), and would have no idea what to say if I asked him what he wanted!  I'm not trying to be snarky -- I'd really love it if he could/would tell me what he wanted, I just don't know how to get him there.[/quote]

Last Christmas, my then 3 yo was into a train obsession.  When I asked what present he wanted, the answer was always trains.  So that is what he got: train pajamas, tshirts, socks, books, and a few train toys.  He was excited and loved every single thing, including the clothes.  The one thing we bought that wasn't a train was very cool.  However, that present he played with 1-3 times and never looked at again.

This year, at age 4, he is asking for everything.  If it looks remotely like something a kid would want, he asks to "put it on my Santa list"  That thing must have at least 500 items and counting.

Luckily, the only thing her really loves is still trains, so that is what he is getting.  I am sure he will love every last one.[/quote]
