Hen Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 oh goodness, Kareni, I need the diagram sentence chart!! here's something I found, it's a kid's guitar with just 3 strings, to learn the chords easier, and it comes with flashcards and there is an app with games for learning. It uses real strings and the 3 strings are the same when you move on to a normal guitar.

Garga Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I'm getting my parents a night light in the shape of a balloon dog. I might get one for myself, too. They're adorable. I'm getting my family (dh, the boys, and I) the complete Far Side cartoon collection ($55 for every cartoon on Amazon, $100 other places.) I got my ds15 the bubble calendar last year and he loves it. The calendar is hung on a hollow wooden door and my dh jumps every night when that bubble is popped. POP!! It's loud on the hollow door. :) I'm getting my nephew gourmet planet lollipops (each lollipop looks like a different planet--my nephew is 18, so this isn't a kiddie gift) and my other nephew a glass popcorn popper for the microwave (this nephew is 22), plus some nice popcorn and spray butter. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garga Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I get my dh a puzzle every year. This year (before they're not sold anymore), I'm getting three puzzles. White Mountain Puzzles has three puzzles of a house in different seasons. The puzzle looks like a doll house, so you can see inside. One puzzle is the house in the summer, one is on Halloween night with trick or treaters, and the third is at Christmas. For some reason, they don't put these puzzles on the same page or sell them as a group, but I'm going to buy them all. I think it'll be cool to give him one at Christmas, give him the second in the summer, and the third at Halloween.

I think my dad helped me a little bit, but IIRC I pretty much did it myself. Years later, I gave it away to a friend with daughters and they got a lot of use out of it. Now that my kids are grown up, I thought it would be fun to have a little dollhouse of my own again. But this time, I don't feel up to making the house itself, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GailV Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) For the MT fans, to go along with your Playbill charms, why not put them on the cover? https://www.playbillstore.com/the-playbill-magazine-5-x-7-inch-photo-frame.aspx Also, is this the multi-tool hairclip? https://www.amazon.com/Mini-Multitool-Clip-Multi-Functional-Scrapper/dp/B010T7CGVE/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1512080409&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=multi+tool+hair+clip&psc=1 I see it available at ThinkGeek and several other places, too. Definitely interested in this for dd! Edited November 30, 2017 by GailV 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
