Mr. Potatohead, hands down.  He'll sit for a half-hour at a stretch just sticking bits and pieces into him, which is pretty impressive for a two-year-old.  Yesterday he turned the poor spud into a mini Shiva - nothing on him but arms!  :D

My kid is much older but he seems to be torn between the new cell phone and the MP3 player. Like the typical man that he almost is, he walks around fiddling with them both, muttering about how he needs to upgrade soon.  ;D Whateva' LOL!

We had the big legos for YEARS and they were a perennial fave. He still has his little ones and won't give them up. ;) Legos RULE! :)

Um... my brother just turned 32 and still has his Legos.  Granted, he doesn't play with them, they just live in a closet.  I'm hoping I can con them out of him as a "present" for my son... that I get to play with, too.  ;D

All of Niall's presents went down a treat and can't say that he likes any one more than other.  However, the biggest surprise was something called AquaDraw Deluxe.  It's a mat on which kids can draw with water-filled pens.  No mess and clean-up is quick.  A+ from mum!
Insert wonderfully creative signature here …

Jackson loves his Pirate of the Caribeen t-shirt, he wants to wear it all the time.  He also is quite taken with his Star wars figures for little guys.

This very short skirt and a Nintendo DS were the biggest hits in our house.  :)

     Band in a box! Expat, I admire you.

    You must have the patience of Job...

     The book Angelina's Birthday is a favorite for my 3 yr. old and my 15 month old son loves his Fisher Price car garage.

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

oh and her second favorite is the "Pass the bomb" game

http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B00008URUL.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg


you pick a card with a scenario and then you say something that you might find in that situtation while passing a bomb around ...like hot potato.

good game it gets her vocabulary going but you can't really travel with that game ..you'll have problem explaining a ticking bomb in your bag :-X
