My DD's 7th birthday is coming up. People are asking me what to get her. I have no clue! She seriously has so many toys. She will say she wants Barbies, but she has about 20 barbies now and honestly they do not get played with that often.
She has 1 American Girl doll and a Pottery Barn Kids knock-off AG doll that she occasionally plays with. I have 2 sets of grandparents and 3 aunts/uncles that will be asking what to get her for her Birthday and then a month later they will be asking about Xmas.
My parents + brother always spend a bit more on her since my 2 kids are the only kids on that side of the family. SO I was thinking of telling them to get the Nintendo 3Ds XL. But I am not sure if I will regret it or not?
My DH is always complaining about the level of toys in our house and I thought this would be a good small gift that could get some use. We sometimes take car trips (4 hours) to visit my family so it could get use there. She likes playing on our old iPods and my iPad. It might be a good idea since people could buy her games for it for Xmas?
Would you get a DS for her?
The other thing I was thinking is that if she gets one and likes it that DS might start wanting one. He is only 4 though. I *could* get him that for Xmas so there are no fights over it, or for his 5th birthday in April. Or we could wait to get another one for him next Christmas (assuming he likes his sisters).
So DS or no DS?
