Hmmm… now, what does a 10-year-old dream of finding under the Christmas tree on Christmas morning?

How about remote-controlled trucks and cars … a magician’s kit … a computer … or, some great jewelry that lights up in the dark. Or perhaps, some sensational board games, a tent for the backyard, or a train with real headlights and tracks….

So, pull up a chair, relax, and let us look more closely at a few surprise Christmas gifts that might be just the thing.

Trampoline – What do 10-year-olds like to do more than anything? Jump up to the sky – that is what. And, how better to do it than on a cool 20-foot trampoline. Get one that has a secure steel frame and is surrounded by a high net enclosure to prevent injury. Roll the trampoline on its wheels out to the backyard for some great fun.

Hannah Montana Purse – This glittery silver purse that Hannah Montana wears will thrill any 10-year-old girl. It comes with its own accessories to fill it up. But it might be fun to add a shiny lip rouge, a change purse, and some sparkling nail polish to put inside.

Walkie Talkies – How about a pair of Spiderman3 walkie talkies? Spiderman’s arms are antenna and allow you to talk at a distance of up to 120 feet. You can talk to friends at school, on the playground, or in the house. Spiderman3 walkie talkies not only look cool but are fun to use.

Fun Wrist Watch – Any 10-year-old will surely stick out his or her arm to have you admire this fabulous wrist watch. Speaking of Spiderman3, how about the awesome Spiderman3 wrist watch with spiderwebs all over the band. Or, have you seen the beautiful Cinderella wrist watch that is all in pink and has Cinderella on the face? There are other colorful watches decorated with stars, flowers, bugs, cartoon characters, and hearts.

Name Scroll on a Painting – Now here is a winning gift. This scroll contains your 10-year-old’s first name and its meaning inscribed on a painting. Included is a history of the name and famous people with that name. The painting is of flowers, a kitten, a dog, a knight on horseback and other scenes. This treasured gift is ready for framing.
