Among other things, I got my son, the engineer, one of those floating digital boomerang thingies. And a wax Buddha for the ex.
You?
is that the floating ball thing?
I got one for my brother last year, and at the same time I got one from my nephew.
I'm getting my nephew this t-shirt this year

Yes, the floating ball thing. Looks lame to me but my son has a degree in aerospace engineering so I thought he might get a kick out of it. I'll report back on Boxing Day.
Thanks, db, maybe now i'll have a fun gift. Otherwise getting desperate.
Enjoy, all!
Do not get this. Looked fun on some videos I saw and I got a couple for kids on my list, but I tried it out and it's really quite lame. I expect eye rolls rather than startlement.

The spider box? Looks lame to me. Although I once bought my mother a small metal box, looked like a small file box for 3x5 cards. When you opened it, a recording of wild applause played. Dumb, yes? She looooved it.
7 year old really enjoyed trying to solve the Pharaohs' Pyramid he got from Santa at a breakfast with Santa event.

This 7 year old has had a subscription to PJ Library since birth.
I saw this game online called Ouisi and wondered if anyone had purchased it. I'm intrigued because it is a visual game and I spend most of my day working on images.
Anyone hear of it? Looks like a cool little holiday gift! Growing up holidays meant playing Monopoly, years later Password and later yet Trivial Pursuit.
My kids post a holiday-gift wish list to Google Sheets. (I don't care for the practice. Where's the surprise if you get what you asked for?) My son and DIL posted "candles." Unfortunately, with my vision, I saw "candies, so that's what they'll get (among other things I picked out.)
Heh-heh-heh.
