Hand-held gaming console Eileen. I have bought one for Dominik for Christmas. Am I mad . . . he's only 5??? :shock:

I haven't got him the brain-train thing though. I might sneak that in for myself and have a go when he's in bed and not playing batman, lego or wall.e :shock:

[yola]

I just have to add, he brought home a 'santa' list the other night and on it he'd written 'dear Santa I would very much like a Nintendo D.S. (his dots) . . . how could a mother refuse that LOL!!!

Where do they learn about these things?? My phone did it's sonar bleep thing the other day and he said 'Mummy, you've got a text message' :shock: :shock: :shock: And it's not something I'd ever told him about!!!

My eldest has had her DS for a couple of years now, and Hayley is getting a pink one from santa :lol: She also did the Christmas list thing Yola, she wanted that and 'The Simpsons' game and 'suite life of Zack and Cody' :roll: but I have also got her the Wall:e game as well. Been trying to talk Raechel into brain training, but it's not cool enough apparently :lol:

I was just about to come and post the same thing!

A few weeks ago Katie and some other children from her school were interviewed on the local radio about what they would like for Christmas. Katie said "I would really love a Nintendo DS but I don't expect I will get one as they are very expensive". The programme presenter was talking with another guy straight after and said they couldn't believe how the 8 year old realised she may not get the present she liked because of the price. He also said you don't hear many children saying that these days. I was quite proud of her..:D

Anyway guess what Katie and Jamie (6) are getting from Santa this Christmas?!! ;)

[yola]

Oh how exciting!!! Are they getting DS's too???

I feel really mean coz all Dominik's friends seem to have them so I thought I'd better redress the fact he doesn't!

[Mags]

Yep Yola, they are both getting DS's too :lol: As you say all their school chums seem to have them already and they may feel a bit left behind without one...

[Moli]

What a lovely wee girl Katie is Mags......No wonder you are proud of her:)

[dandysmom]

I echo Moli's comment, Mags!

[Erin]

No yola,the fake ones are being sold on the internet you can read more here,some of the fakes are really dangerous and may cause fires because of dodgy chargers :shock: -
