What to think about

  • Go by his interests, not just the aisle label.
  • RC toys: check battery type and charging time.
  • Building sets: match the piece count to his patience.

Make the list easy for everyone

Once you have a few ideas, help your child write a free letter to Santa with Pip, then share a private wish list so grandparents and Helpers can coordinate without doubling up.

Prices, stock and age ratings change often. Check each product's listing and age label before buying.
