For the first time in forever this has been the easiest year to come up with gift ideas for my boys, and I had all my shopping done a couple of weeks ago because there is no way I am going anywhere near the shops in December! Too busy, too crowded, nightmare trying to find a parking spot... and I'm becoming much more of a fan of online shopping now!
I got them all practical stuff which is probably why it was easy - no toys (they're 12 and 10) - so they mightn't be that excited but too bad. Except for the laptop my oldest is getting - he starts high school next year and needs it for that. He's also getting a 15 min ride in real race car as part of the activities he'll be doing when he goes to the Australian Scout Jamboree in January. Both boys are also getting lightweight/hiking sleeping bags, day packs and umbrellas (I did say practical!)... some books, pens and some edible treats.
