Ok I am beginning to panic.My DS who is won't tell anyone what he wants from Santa. He has informed us that Santa KNOWS what he wants and he won't tell anyone else. We have tried various stories in order to get him to tell us but he remains tight lipped.

My DH suggested that Santa phones him so will maybe have to try that :confused3

Lets hope he gets what he wants :confused3

A phonecall from Santa sounds like a great idea, or could you get Santa to wrtite to him saying that's he's not too sure which item he wants (maybe Santa could ask for a page number in the Argos catalogue etc)

Good Luck

Maybe get some friends around and get them all talking
or is there some aunt or uncle or grandparents that could help
Good luck :wizard:

We have tried looking through the Argos book - he tells me Santa does not shop in Argos :confused3

Granda is working away this Christmas so we got him to have a chat!!He told him that he didn't want to tell him and he would see it when he came home :confused3

For a 4 year old he is a tricky little monster :rotfl2:

Ha! Tell him he needs to write a list and send it to Santa by mail! Then tell him you'll either send the letter or write it for him! Brillent!!

I am surpised none of you thought of that!! It's so simple!! :teeth:

He has written his letter - well what he calls writing (tricky when you are 4).He tells us Santa knows what it says :rotfl: I didn't want to burst his bubble and tell him that his scribbles could not be understood as he has only just starting writing his name and thinks he is great :thumbsup2

Bother.. :scratchin .. This is tricker that I thought..

As an extremity you could always dress up as Santa and then ask.. :rotfl: If he says "I sent you a letter" you could always says that it didn't come in the post or something like to get him to spill the beans.. :thumbsup2

I'm running out of ideas.. :headache:

Thanks for all your suggestions. I am hoping the phonecall tomorrow will work.Dressing up as Mrs Clause would be extreme although DH might be impressed :rotfl2: or not :rotfl:

I hope the phonecall works.
We bought DD (7) a Dear Santa letter, as see Santa always needs reminding of what they want wether he knows or not,see he does have ALOT of children to visit on Christmas Eve. We did that lol Was I convincing enough then? :rotfl:

This happened to my friend a few years ago. She enlisted the nursery to help and they all had a discussion at circle time and then drew pictures of the things they would like and then put them in a post box which then disappeared overnight to Santa (AKA the parents in question). If your DS is anything like my DD drawings will be much clearer than 'words' :rotfl:

Hope this helps

Well the mystery is solved. Santa phoned today and first spoke to DD(7) who had no problem listing off everything she wanted then it was DS turn. We asked his best pals dad to phone so he spoke to him about what he had got up to with his pal. He then asked the killer question and he ANSWERED.All he wants is a Power Rangers computer game which I have just bought from woolies for £4.99. He wants it because his pal has one!!!!!!!

That was too easy :rotfl:

Glad it is all sorted out.

Luckily my DS(8) is still guidable on his list. I would be lost if he kept what he wanted a secret!

Well the saga continues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DH and I were at his Nativity play today - he was a king .It was one of those moments that makes me proud to be his mum.

Anyway the play finished and DS and his best friend came over and sat with us while we ate out mince pies. His BF mum asked him what he wanted from Santa to which he replied A PLAYSTATION2 WITH STEERING WHEEL AND POWER RANGERS GAME :confused3 :confused3. My DH nearly choked on his mince pie.Funnily enough thats what BF want too.

Just wait til about the 23rd/24th dec and they see an ad on tv and say 'oh that's what i really want for xmas' - even though they've never ever mentioned it before!!!

Wait til DD is 11 and DS is 8 - my DD wants pampering things and the entire contents of claires accessories, DS just wants everything!!!!
