Im in need of gift Idesa for my stepdad and my three neices/nephew. I was wanting to get my stepdad a Playstation 3 Game since he bought himself one a year ago and only has 2 games for it. He is 60 yrs old and is an Attorney. He likes to read a ton of books on history and wars and such. I think one of the games he has is Call of Duty. Can anyone recommend a game that a 60 yr old would like? I don't want to end up getting him a game that is to immature or to teenage-like ect.
Second, I have 2 twin neices 3yrs old and a 5yr old Nephew(brother/sisters) they live in Huntingon Beach California and their parents make alot of money so they are pretty much spoiled to the max. I was wanting to get one gift that they could all share that is around $50 maximum. Something they would really have fun or enjoy. I dont want to waste my money on something that they'll get and open and then throw in the closet. Anyone who has kids these ages ever notice any toy in your house that they all fight over?? I can also get single gifts if I can get good ideas, but figured thinking of one is easier than 3 and there is shipping it too!!
Thank You to all that take time to reply to this I really appreciate it!! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!
Gift ideas for the little ones: Play Tent & Tunnel, Easel for Two, Workshop Play Set, or Kitchen Play Set
They have a new call of duty new one comes out every year they are all different.
I received an awesome gift from work this year that might work in the second situation. I received a gift card for DonorsChoose.org. I had the best time spending it! So rewarding. The site is filled with requests from teachers nationwide for help funding different projects, ranging from sports equipment to paying for books or gear that can help special needs children. Every project I looked at seemed worthy to me and there is detailed information about how the money will be used. You can search the site for special interests, too. For instance, if your nieces and nephews love art, they could choose to help a school needing help paying for art supplies.
If the 3 year olds are into Disney Princesses, they may like a subscription to Disney Princess magazine. My 3 year old LOVES it.
My dad is 54 and he loves the Call of Duty games. If that helps any. Ask your mom if he likes that game and if so maybe get him the new one.
How about an "experience" for the kids? A trip to an amusement park in their area, the zoo, a museum, or something like that? As a mom I wish we got more "experience" gifts and less "junk". Good luck and Merry Christmas!!
Go to Game Stop or any other video game store, and ask them. They are usually very helpful... and yes, Call of Duty, there are various annual newer versions....
For the kids, well gee that is hard since they get everything they want anyway. Maybe books? Not real exciting, but useful....
Or the "HexBug Nano" is real cool... and you could get the racetrack for it. It is not expensive... Brookstone has it or Amazon or even E-bay. My kids like the HexBugs.
If ordering things online, per shipping, have it shipped DIRECTLY to them, and opt for the "gift wrapping" choice when you pay. Then it will be all wrapped and shipped directly to them. And you won't have to do it.
I have done that. Saves time.
all the best,
Susan
What about something like monogrammed beach towels for the kids? LL Bean or Lands End has very nice ones and they'll have then a long time! (And, it's a practical gift!)
Sorry, I know nothing about Playstation 3 games!
Merry Christmas!
if you dont get him a game maybe get him a barnes and noble gift card since he loves to read.
for the kids maybe get a play kitchen. they have many great ones on sale and it should intrest all 3 kids.
Hi,
The PS3 new call of duty game is called Black Ops. He might also like NBA2K11, MLB11, Madden11, or any of the Just Cause series. As far as your neices and nephew how about a gift certificate to a play zone in their community of movie money?
Happy Holidays!
