With Christmas Day less than a week away, it’s not only adults who should be worrying about receiving truly awful gifts. ADAM ASPINALL spares a thought for the kids who find one of these hideous items in their stockings – and wonders just how naughty they must have been to deserve them.
1.POLE DANCING DOLL – £15
Every little girl loves her dolly. But mum and dad are sure to draw the line at this pole dancing minx – who struts under a glitterball while wearing a skimpy bikini! What was Santa thinking?
2. FISH BONING KIT – £8.99
It’s the present that will leave the kids gutted – learn the basics of de-boning a fish!
The perfect gift for future fishmongers – or maybe little Eskimo children.
3. GUNGE BATH – £20
Getting the kids to take a bath can prove troublesome. But fill it with sticky gunge and they are sure to take the plunge!
Just don’t bother to ask them to wash behind the ears...
4. PLAY-DOH DENTISTRY KIT – £20
A jaw-dropping rotting tooth toy for the budding sadist in all young children.
Never has a trip to the dentists been such a nightmare.
5. BABY SHAVING DOLL – £15
A doll, er, that you can shave. This toy certainly fell out of the ‘educational’ bracket early on in production. Quite why you need to shave baby is never made clear.
