hi , for preschoolers i think anything re, in the night garden in particular iggle piggle. for older kids and adults there is a new xbox elite system - some good deals on these at the moment including the hot new game halo 3. my eight year old is getting a toy laptop and the new girl tech digi makeover. worth mentioning that digi makeover is 60 quid in argos but only 35 in costco !!

My kids think christmas has come early .
Their Nan gave them some money for their holiday and they both got an R4 for the nintendo DS.

It doesn't look much ..and I can't say too much about it otherwise my post will be deleted ...But it works very well and the kids are having hours of fun.

Think in the night garden is the 1 for toddlers and their parents!
Older kids, mine are 12 & 13, girls ,want a laptop must be pink!
But agree with other posters that High school musical and xbox elite is a good bet too.Then there's dvd's of hp, mr beans holiday and now 68 cd ,just going on what my dd's have been begging for !

Interesting!

Tickle me Elmo was not a big seller last year actually. A lot of people started buying them up early thinking they would be making a bit profit on Ebay - thanks to someone here suggesting that they might be big. But if I remember rightly, most were lucky to actually get back what they paid in the end.

I don't think that there was one single big seller last Christmas.

My own prediction for this year is the humble Rubiks cube - it has reappeared in shops and could be a good retro buy for 30+ year olds and a 'new' challenge to kids/teenagers. It seems to be around £9.99 in most places.
