Jaan's requests this year are,
Pirate Pig Attack, an angry birds playset, retailing about about £30.
The Moshi Monsters Moshling Mall, retailing at around £45.
Obi Wan angry bird plush toy in 8" size, retailing at around £12.
Princess Leia bird plush toy, again, 8" size.
Modelling clay of the plasticine sort (not playdough sort, as that stuff grows mould after a while and cracks and dries too, whereas plasticine type clay that is not labelled 'soft' stays ok)
Phonics activity toys, such as:
Star Wars Phonics.
Anything Alphablocks (this is a show on phonics from CBeebies) - books retail at £3.50 to about £10.
We are getting him the Leapfrog LeapReader, books and accessories for that would be most welcome. Books from the Leapfrog Tag system also work with this LeapReader thing, so those might also be an option. The dubiously titled 'learn to write with mr pencil' is a good bet.
There is also a Monsters University one, a Spongebob one, an Umizoomi one, an interactive world map, interactive solar system - all on amazon and all would be popular choices. Sesame Street monster faces, and Star Wars Clone Wars are also options that will probably work, everything else could go badly wrong - 5 years old are so tempermental. Steer clear of past faves like Thomas the Tank Engine, Nemo, Toy Story etc as he is still coming to terms with his younger self.
Anything SkyLanders is a winner just now.
Pencils, notebooks, paper etc, books with plain paper and perforated edges are very welcome, he likes to write and draw all day and a book is easier to manage than paper (does not slip about). Felt pens are his top tools.

when Jaan was about to be 4 ....
Here's what I wrote on his board for Pinterest:
Jaan's Birthday list - his own choice of toys and goodies for a 4 year old
Jaan loves Moshi Monsters, and enjoys setting up "videos" using his small Angry Bird figures and big plush Angry Birds. The stories he loves are the Billy Goat's Gruff, the stories of Beatrix Potter, and the 3 Little Pigs (less so). He likes comics, and Om Nom from 'Cut the Rope'. He's very interested in Space, how his body works, and whether any given location is "still in England" or not. Music-wise he likes 'You don't know you're beautiful' by One Direction and Green Day's 'Love'.
and in the list I made:

For Jaan
Thank you kind people who generously hand down coats and wellies and hats to us - Jaan has started proper Kindergarten, including Woodland days now, and will be out and about for most of the school day, in all weathers, dressed up against the wind and rain and snow. His fave colours are red, blue and black, mainly red. He's sick of yellow and green (my fave colours!) as I choose them too often - I can spot him easily in yellow! He needs a bunch of things.
