IsoMK - "I look at the toys offered & they rarely entertain or challenge a child for more than a short time."
that is so true... I have tried very hard to get something stimulating for the neices and nephews but its hard... I've got the older ones books this year... but my 8 year old nephew is severely autistsic and its very hard to buy for him... I have bought him a set of books with the story also told on audio cassette, on reccomendation from an Autism news group... Percy the Park keeper!! (I would link, but they're not available at US Amazon, so I couldn't!!)
Am totally lost as to what to get my 14 year old neice though!! I'm not goin near clothes or music as their tastes change daily at that age!!! Any ideas iso??!! *lol* (twas a joke btw!)I wish I could avoid it all this year, but my best friend is over from new Zealand so I have rto see him (fiorst time I've seen him for nearly 2 years!!) and celebrate, and also my neices and nephews would not understand why they had no pressies from Auntie Nikki!!!
I'm keeping it very quiet and low key though
