Hervey Bay Gossip

Just in case you missed it we’re happy to spread the joy and tell you that there is now less than three months to Christmas. We can sound smug about that because our Christmas shopping for our kids and grandkids is almost complete.

But if you’re still wondering what to get then maybe the hot 15 list from Toys “R” Us in the United States may help.

Blue Man Group Percussion Tubes from ToyQuest®
Designer’s World™ from Tiger® Games
Dora’s Talking Cash Register™ from Fisher-Price®
ESPN® Fast Action Football™ from Fisher-Price®
Kid-Tough™ Digital Camera from Fisher-Price®
Laugh & Learn™ Baby Grand Piano from Fisher-Price®
Mindstorms® NXT from LEGO®
My Scene™ My Bling Bling™ Styling Head from Mattel®
Pink Nitro Notebook™ from VTech®
Power Rangers Deluxe Manticore Megazord from Bandai®
Speed Stacks® StackPack® from Play Along®
Sound City Railway from Imaginarium
Tap Dancing Mumble from Thinkway
“T.M.X.” ™ Elmo from Fisher-Price®
Wii™ from Nintendo®

Just in case you missed them you will find a digital camera and a laptop computer (in pink of course) hiding in that list. There’s even something that looks like a trainset … but somehow I don’t quite see that as being anything like the Hornby trainsets that were so popular when I was a kid.

But then you really shouldn’t give your kids trainsets - my parents made that mistake when I was seven or eight and I’m still addicted to playing with trains
