[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Different poster, but I would have wanted to nix that particular gift because it's the kind of thing my four-year-old would have thought was great when she opened it, immediately climbed into it, and then never ever used again. It would sit around her room as clutter and she'd refuse to let me donate it, but she'd never use it because she never just sits still, she's always moving.[/quote] I have the male version of this. It's awful, and if you aren't living with it, you have no idea how awful. I suspect my sister thinks I'm a total meanie for discouraging certain presents, but I think it's totally reasonable to consider not just whether a kid will like it but whether it works well for the family as a whole. (The converse is true, too. If I want to buy my kid a drum and I don't let him play it in other people's houses, spare me the eyeroll, which I DID INDEED SEE.)[/quote]
