Here I am on the cover of my Flatten Me book

Dear Santa,

I'm so excited this year.  I've been asking about Christmas since last summer.   My favorite thing to do these days is go through the catalog my Mom gets and point to all the toys I want - there are a lot!  Here's a list of some cool picks that are hot for boys my age this season.  (Hint, hint!)

LeapFrog ClickStart My First Computer - The ClickStart My First Computer from LeapFrog is made for ages 3-6.  It plugs right into the TV and teaches basic computer skills.  You can buy the educational games to go with it.  It's retails for $59.99; you can also find it on Amazon right now on sale for $49.97 and it ships free.

The Fisher Price Smart Cycle - this is definitely one of the hot products for the season.  Another item that plugs straight into your TV,    It retails for $99.99.  Currently, it's available on sale on Amazon for $89.00 and ships free.  My Mom also saw it recently in-store at Walmart for $85.88.  The accompanying games sell for around $19.99.

Fire Station from Playmobil - I won't admit it, but I love the concept of a dollhouse.  Whenever I'm over at a girls' house, I love playing with the various rooms of the house.  That's why Mom thinks this Fire Station from Playmobil would be a great compromise for me; it's a nice boy toy but it's still a house that I can have many great hours of imaginative play.  You can buy it on the FAO Schwartz website for $80.  It ships free as any sales over $75 ship for free.

Diego Scooter - at 50% off, this scooter is a great deal.  It's currently $19.99 on Amazon (normally $39.99) and ships free when you purchase $25+ of  eligible items from Amazon.

Wooden Melissa & Doug toys - with all of this year recalls, you can't go wrong with a good old-fashioned wooden toy from Melissa & Toy.  Not only do my parents love these solid toys because most of them are sound free, but they love how they encourage me to use my imagination.  All Melissa & Doug toys are currently 10% off on Gummy Lump.

Flatten Me - for something different, these personalized books from Flatten Me are sure to be a hit.  I got mine as an early Christmas gift but wanted to list it as something fun that other boys and girls would love!  You upload a photo of your child to this website and they print the child's face into the book as one of the main characters.  In my book, I'm a pirate!  For girls, they have a fairy book.  Each book is $32.95.

Thanks Santa!
