Hey all,

I know Christmas is a long way off but I like to start shopping
early. Anyway I have 2 nephews belonging to 2 different brothers of
mine. One is 3 and the other is 2. Being single and not having kids, I
thought it would be fun to buy the 3 year old a set of drums for
Christmas. Much to my brother's dismay, my nephew loves them. And they
make a lot of noise. Well this year it's the 2 yoa's turn. My other
brother says I will be banned from his house (not really) if his son
gets drums too. So instead of drums, what else can I get him that makes
a lot of noise? I thought of a kiddie guitar with a loud amplifier but
I'm open to any ideas. Actually this is going to be more fun than I
thought it would.

Years ago a niece received a kareoke (sp?) machine. Words came up on
the TV (can't remember if it went straight to the TV - probably went
through a VCR). Her younger sister got a set of drums. It was a LOUD
Christmas - LOL

No it wasn't me - their Dad did it. I remember my sister saying
something about needing veto power on all future gifts.

A favourite gift of ours to give to friends with small kids are these shoes
that squeak when the kid walks. It is quite irritating to the parents, but
the kids love it!

Sandpaper kisses, a cuddle and a purr. I have an alarm clock that's covered
in fur!

I once bought a nephew [then about 3] Play-Doh and his mother actually
liked that [she had things sorted out to control any mess].


Yeah, well, I suspect she was just being gracious. The thing about Play-Doh is,
you blink your eyes, and bingo! It's ground into the carpet and impossible to
get out.
