The Finger Painters and giant paint pads are such a great idea! Everything at the Kids Depot seems such great value 🙂 ljchaffey at hotmail dot com
I like the refillable paint sticks, paint pads and some of the stampers (or should I say I think my daughters would like them)…

Oh I'm torn. I love the Melissa and Doug stamps sets – both the Zoo and Butterfly but I really like the create your own ballerina kit too. So many cool things. 🙂
Those Rolobox Wheel sets are perfect for all sorts of kid-sized fun. Would love to get my hands on some of those.

So many great ideas there.. I could do my entire kiddie Xmas shopping through the site. I love the make a ballerina set – Izzy would LOVE that!
love the rolo wheels – santas definitely bringing some of those
The bell set was a big hit at kindy last year too – but hmmm maybe thats a good one to play with at kindy but not at home (could I put up with the noise and trying to keep the set together/stop them donging each other on the head with them??)
Lots of lovely things
I love the stamp sets and my son would go crazy over the wooden builder set.

The rollo wheels are my pick this week. 😉
Well, any of the Melissa & Doug range would be welcomed under our tree as they are such awesome quality and clever products, but in particular I know my son would love the magnetic dress up boy doll or vehicle stamp set.
I have two little adventurers here who love to explore in our backyard. I know they'd love to find the National Geographic Explorer Kit under our tree 🙂
We would love to find the Jungle Paint and Dough rollers. My son loves painting so these rollers would be great for his collection.
Love the Dinosaur stamp sets and the multi coloured stamp pads.
I'd choose the animal snap cards. I like playing snap almost as much as my daughter 🙂
So many things! Galt soft books for my baby, giant paint pads for my 3yo and Neat Nets for me to keep all the toys tidied away at the end of the day. 🙂
SES weaving loom. For my crafty daughter. 🙂
The soft books! I'm obsessed with books and reading to Tricky 🙂
