Any ideas for stocking stuffers for a three year old girl and baby boy? I know the baby doesn’t care but I want my daughter to understand that other people get presents too.

demand (not depend)

but everyone is on it and buying now, so depend will be a factor now even this early.

Try placing your order for a Prime item and see how the two days stretches out...to a week...to two weeks...to "We will keep you informed"...to "Your item arrived yesterday!" (It did not). The entire shipping chain has been affected.

Placed my order 3 days ago (5 toy/hot items for gifts) and they arrived yesterday.

Same experience. I’m getting next day delivery on many of my Prime orders.

It’s October. If you wait, you will not get the items.

5 yo boy—I ordered most stuff last week and everything is here and stashed away.

Skateboard & safety gear
New cards for his Yoto player
Big LEGO baseplates
The Dangerous Book for Boys
Bigfoot Stuffie
Godzilla shirt
Membership to his favorite museum

Closer to Christmas, I’ll get new PJs, some candy & stocking stuffers.

On his wishlist for grandparents, aunts, & uncles:
LEGO sets, NERF guns, NatGeo dig sets.

I have 10 and 12 year old girls that want one as their one big Christmas gift this year. I'm on the fence. We previously thought they were somewhat dangerous, but now that they're older, I'm thinking that it might be good exercise. On the flipside, being older, maybe they won't use it as much as they think they will? And then I'll have a trampoline in my garage...

Too dangerous. Stick to your guts for like two more years.

Skip it. And not just for danger reasons. Your kids are on the older side of trampoline play and won’t get many years out of it. My 13 year old stopped using hers when she was 11. Plus it ruins your lawn and quickly becomes an eyesore.

We got one for our 11 year old over the summer. Spent a lot of money on it and she’s used it like 4 times. Huge fail.

Our kids (range from elementary to high school) use ours daily. Best investment in our backyard, hands down.

DS’s friend got one and hurt her leg jumping on it and needs weekly physical therapy.

No issues, just wait a few weeks before Christmas, problem solved.

DD really wanted the My Little Pony Sing & Skate Pony, and I ordered it today using a 25% off toy coupon at Target.

Spikeball is fun for my 10 and 12 year olds.

Mine want them!

I was too old for these the first time around, but I remember hearing about them. Is it something a kid can manage if they can’t take it to school, or does it need constant attention? My 8yo nephew might like one, but I don’t want to get him in trouble!
