Game of Life
Scrabble or Bananagrams
iTouch
Pokemon anything
Magic 8 ball
Video game (DS wants Kirby's epic yarn and pokemon ranger guardian signs....if we get him a game it will be only one so I have to poke and see which one he really wants.)

I was going to get DS a new bike but I think my co-worker is going to give him his son's outgrown bike. DS has been asking for an iTouch so I think that will be his big gift. He loves Monopoly and Words with Friends (we do pass and play) so I think he will like the above mentioned board games. I also want to get him a new Razor scooter if I can find a good deal.

I haven't started shopping yet either. :) I am so far behind this year.

Stomp rockets
maybe a nerf gun (this is what he really, really wants...I'm not sure I want him to have it ;) but I think Santa is going to come through)
car art kit/drawing set: http://www.amazon.com/Smart-Lab-O7066-ArtLab-Design/dp/193285598X/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1289828170&sr=8-10
Sequence game

DD and DS1 may be getting some shared things for our next house (upcoming move) like a gymnastics mat, rings, etc. for the basement. Not sure if we'll actually do it for Christmas but we might.

I'm holding out a little longer to see if he mentions anything else at the last minute. If he doesn't he'll probably get some more Lego and or Knex.

DS is 7. He is getting a wii from us and more unit blocks from Santa. My parents are getting him Phineas and Ferb action figures and a wii game. His stocking will have a SF Giants World Series baseball cap and a watch, plus other small things. He has also asked for football and baseball books.

DS1 will have his 7th b-day in December. Here's what I have gathered up for him so far:
-Razor Scooter (the awesome $16.99 deal Jo posted here--TY!!!!)
-Battleship board game
-Chicago Bears sleep pants gift set
-paints and paint brushes

I know there is other stuff, but I can't remember at the moment.

I have 2 boys ages 6 and 7

legos
a game or two
books
booster set for the barclay blocks
a digital camera for one
and roller blades for the other

also considering keva contraptions block set to go with our kapla blocks
http://store.freeshippingtoystore.com/MindWare-KEVA-Contraptions-200-Plank-Construction-Set_p_158.html

and we like to set up a big gift. Some of the ideas we are tossing around is to create a space in our basement for them. Either a wood shop/inventor's studio (work bench, peg board with tools hanging, and supplies....or a stage for a rock and roll band (bought the electric guitar on craigslist already and would look for a set of bongos or something to go along...plus space for the other instruments.

My son is 6 and in 1st grade. He is getting from us:
Playmobil Ghost Pirate Ship (http://www.amazon.com/Playmobil-Ghost-Pirate-Ship-Set/dp/B001NIO5XQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1289854431&sr=1-1)

Nerf gun, he has wanted one for forever!

Shared gifts:

Lego table

Stocking:
probably Pokemon cards
maybe Bakugan
DS game holder


He asked for Legos, but DH thinks we have enough. :p I put it out there for his Aunts/Grandparents. He got a DS for his birthday in September, so I'm sure he'd like more games, but the 4 we have already seems like enough for now.
