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.


Right-because it’s October. Remember what a disaster shipping was last year around the holidays? I’m hoping it won’t be quite as bad this year.


Its going to be worse than last year.

Pottery barn teen has some folding papasan chairs at a good price point. I am assuming that the quality is reasonable. We are getting tween DD one as a comfy reading spot in her bedroom.
Could really use some help with hunger games themed items… would love to find her a sweatshirt, etc but even etsy is slim pickings.

Are there any Polly Pocket type sets for boys? My DD loves those and I'd like to get a boy equivalent for my DS.

My 8yo just got the Discovery gem mining kit and loved it.

(Beware, though, messy if you’re not careful.)

Yes! A friend has two sets. They are amazing. My girls play on the tubelox jungle gym every time they visit. Very sturdy. Her 4 and 2 year old haven't gotten into building with them yet. Her girls don't build though. My kids love to build and I am considering them in the future, maybe when they are 4 and 6.

Also, at that age, it’s important to somewhat match physical size/ number of presents but they have no sense of how much things cost. So if you get her a bean bag chair for her room or even a big box with all her winter snow gear in it along with some smaller presents that she’ll be really excited about, it should be enough.


We already have a scooter and balance bike (all were originally gifts for DC1, so while she could get her own, that just feels like a ridiculous waste). A beanbag chair could be an interesting option, just not sure where it would fit in her room…


A princess fort that folds up for easy storage.

To a PP, we got the Barbie dream house last year and it was very much a pain to find it in December. If you can get it now and store it away somewhere, do it!

I’ve started early this year and we have LOL toys and so many legos.
