Hits:
Aiden (7) - Snap circuits, Minecraft PC Game, Diary of a wimpy kid, Cluedo board game, diving sticks
Nathan (5) - Snap circuits, Minecraft PC Game, Asterix book, Horrid Henry Books, 1000 Animal Facts book, Triceratops Excavation Kit, Ludo Game, diving sticks
Dylan (2) - kid's umbrella (well it was a hit until it nearly sliced off his thumb yesterday.) New early readers, new story books, new puzzles, wooden garage play set, new Leappad game ( I say new as he has gotten all the hand-me-downs and this is the first time he has received these items new just for him.)
Not yet used - They each got their very own stationery and pencil bags, they are all excited about this! Aiden has not opened his fingerprint kit yet as he says he is keeping it for a special project on crime scene investigation/spy techniques when we get back into learning.
Misses were only things given by extended family. So we are gratefully re-gifting them to a children's home (Aiden's idea) where they will be enjoyed a whole lot more.
We use the end of the year to gift things for the next year as all three birthdays fall around Nov - Jan, so there are still a few things to get that caused great consternation at not being available now. Most notably for Aiden was the missing Algebra book, for Nathan was the missing Chemistry kit and the LEGO WeDo sets that they are all sharing as part of our learning/homeschooling year.
