Question about Winter Wishes

We received our Winter Wishes letters. On one of them the child wrote, "I like to play with dolls. Thank you." On the other, the other child wrote, "I like to play with cars. Thank you."

However, on both letters, there is a little piece of paper stapled on that says "LeapFrog Clickstart My First Computer By: LeapFrog List Price: $59.99 (crossed out) OurPrice: $34.98."

Under that, it has an item #, SKU #, a UPC/EAN/ISBN, a picture of the LeapFrog, and a Toys R Us logo. Does this mean the child also wants the LeapFrog? I'm confused.

It sounds like the kids wrote what they wanted, and the adult teacher/social worker wrote what they thought the kids want. I think it's a little tacky to staple the paper to the kids gift wish like that, but eh...I dunno. I guess just get it and maybe a small doll and car?

I agree with this. I would get some dolls and match box stuff for them.

I think its tacky as well. I would get what the child asked for not what some adult wrote for them.

Re: Question about Winter Wishes

My printed sheet says that "several gift suggestions are listed on the back of this sheet" there are none on mine, but maybe that is what it is?

IDK you'd think that if a child wanted cars or dolls they would suggest something along those lines.
