Connor ,'Not Fade Away'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My SIL is really busy, so I offered to help her shop for stocking stuffers - her kids are 7 and 4. She suggested a stapler and a tape dispenser for her son, and a pencil cup to match her office depot trash can for her daughter.
Even mr. flea (whose sister this is) thinks she is clearly a huge dork. I mean, Santa brings a stapler??? I can ignore these suggestions, right? I was thinking, like, silly string and stuff.
I'd include the items she mentioned, otherwise you're in danger of starting off a big round of, "Why'd you ask?" Kids like office/school supplies.
Cindy, I'm afraid mr. flea now thinks you are a huge dork, too. The again, he says he was traumatized by always receiving socks and underwear in his stocking as a child.
I guess I could look for a REALLY COOL stapler.
If it is a shiney stapler, I'd want one. Actually, I saw a really cool alligator/monster stapler in store....somewhere. You can get me the kids that.
Ooh, that does sound cool.
I have email from Amazon telling me that POTC2 is on it's way.
My sister and I were kind of bummed when we got (respectively) binder clips and colored paperclips in our stockings.
Until we traded, and then we were all, score!
Okay, it's not the iPods of the Magi, but still. True story. And, um, not very long ago.
I think you're misunderestimating the appeal of arts & crafts!

Soldering iron for the 7yo, glue gun for the 4yo.
Dude, my nephew would love you forever if you gave him a stapler, soldering iron, glue gun and even better? His own grownup socket set. He keeps trying to steal my brother's.
I'm asking for a toolbox this year.
