I tried to drum up excitement calling them Daniel Tiger, but he has no place to where those clothes. He’s another child that refuses to wear jeans! His dad gave him a giant blow up fish thing that took over a hour to assemble and it doesn’t move correctly with the remote control anyway. That’s already stored in the closet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year/page/2#post-2864585 Wed, 02 Jan 2019 19:59:25 +0000 Foodnerd81 2864585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbookworm: :shocked: definitely not! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year/page/2#post-2864582 Wed, 02 Jan 2019 19:56:39 +0000 mrsbookworm 2864582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Someone bought my kids Don’t Step in It. You make poop piles out of play-doh and then wear a blindfold and try not to step in them. Wtf? Blindfolded kids dragging brown play-doh all over my house on their feet?!?

No volume button either. I later saw it on an amazon list of suggested gifts for 2 year olds. Thanks a lot, Jeff Bezos.</p> <p>And when they were here for Thanksgiving they went to Marshall’s and came back with that huge piano from Big. Didn’t ask, just showed up with it. Yay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2864130 Sun, 30 Dec 2018 15:49:06 +0000 maddyz 2864130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mother in law gave us a huge Fisher price zoo thing with, for real 57 animals. She got it on Ebay and some of the animals don't even fit on the thing that says their name. It also comes with a big truck, a train and a train car. We live in 700 square feet THERE IS NO WAY THIS THING IS LASTING MORE THEN A MONTH. I just can't have yet another bin to have to sort toys into. It's so frustrating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2864087 Sun, 30 Dec 2018 07:06:23 +0000 brownepiano 2864087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of those books with all the car and truck sound buttons. I had JUST managed to get all the noisy books out my house including a duplicate of the one we got for Christmas. My kids are 2.5 and almost 5, they don't need buttons to keep them interested in books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2864067 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 22:11:41 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2864067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A pair of skinny jeans for my very chubby 23 month old. I managed to get them on her, but you could see every muscle and it was challenging to button them. </p> <p>I'll also give back a very nice sweater that she will never wear. I don't dress my kids nicely. They get play clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2864047 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 20:20:31 +0000 Ajsmommy 2864047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Shockingly this year nothing too annoying....last year though was terrible!! IL's gifted the @erinbaderin: big piano and SIL gifted our 11 month old a huge turtle filled with balls....um... Horrible horrible toy. Balls everywhere but in the stupid turtle....so yeah both of those quickly sent into a closet</p> <p>Eta : DD is 5 and has never worn jeans....mostly my doing bc they seem so stiff and rough! Ds is 22 mos and never worn real jeans either. Jeggings for the win!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2864042 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 19:40:30 +0000 Iced Tea 2864042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I identify with SO MUCH of this. Last year was awful, so we made plans with people in advance to limit gifts, suggesting activities instead (like a cookie decorating party). This year was a lot better, and I think most people appreciated the money savings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863990 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 14:38:26 +0000 turquoisemama 2863990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom got DD who is about to turn 4 a unicorn Fingerling. WTF. I have seen them in the store but I’ve never heard the awful noise they make. So loud! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863979 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 12:40:55 +0000 wrkbrk 2863979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meadow: That is an excellent idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863976 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 12:33:09 +0000 meadow 2863976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: make it an "outside only" toy ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863975 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 12:21:11 +0000 periwinklebee 2863975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alba4: I clicked on this just to write "any v-tech toy."

It races and zips around, crashing into and nicking my baseboards and plays loud annoying music. 🤦🏻‍♀️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863947 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 07:25:39 +0000 looch 2863947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is 8 and won’t wear jeans either, It’s lined chino pants or jogger sweats everyday.</p> <p>We got one of those bbop Star Wars monstrosities last year, I took the batteries out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863937 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 23:04:15 +0000 Foodnerd81 2863937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: to be fair, I think it’s a little easier for girls to avoid jeans. She wears dresses with leggings or tights, or shirts and leggings or jogger type pants. There isn’t a real need in her wardrobe for jeans. And I hated putting them on her as a baby because they seemed uncomfortable and annoying, so I guess I caused it. Then again when I wear stretchy jeans my friends ask why I’m dressed up. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863936 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 23:02:20 +0000 jhd 2863936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: I dressed him in jeans from 9 months also but at age 3 he wore them only occasionally and now at 4 he can’t stand them. It’s all about being able to move and bend and run. Haha I bought him the softest jeans I could find in the store! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863935 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 22:59:41 +0000 jhd 2863935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: my LO wears jogger style sweats in all colors. That’s all. Haha I tried to get him into jeans for a recent Christmas program and he lasted like two minutes before telling me he just couldn’t wear them. He was not going to be on the front row so I just let him wear his “soft pants” 🤷🏻‍♀️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863934 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 22:58:52 +0000 Sams Mom 2863934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: @jhd: I guess I forced my child into jeans and he's accepted it as a way of life and not an option 😂 he's had jeans since size 9 months... But I also wear jeans almost everyday, and my friends think I'm weird for not taking them off ASAP when I get home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863932 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 22:55:55 +0000 Foodnerd81 2863932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: lol for every person who asked what LO wanted and her size I said “size 6, she likes comfy clothes, still refuses to wear jeans or any pants with a fly”. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863931 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 22:55:19 +0000 jhd 2863931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: I always got them out if it was a particularly cold and snowy day. Other than that it was our regular cotton Carters pjs which fit much better and don’t cause sweats! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863930 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 22:53:41 +0000 Sams Mom 2863930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: my son loves them because they're freaking paw patrol, but they look terrible and then he's just a walking sweat stain in them 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863929 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 22:50:20 +0000 jhd 2863929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: same on the clothes. MIL is dying to see my 4yo in “nicer” clothes. She got him jeans and I guarantee they will just sit in the closet. He refuses to wear anything but “soft pants”! </p> <p>@Sams Mom: we got those pajamas for a few years too and my DS couldn’t wear them either without sweating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863919 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 21:45:31 +0000 Silva 2863919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jennibenni: it’s ridiculous! 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-gift-are-you-going-to-have-breakdisappear-this-year#post-2863918 Fri, 28 Dec 2018 21:41:56 +0000 Jennibenni 2863918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Silva: That made me laugh! </p>
