Parents admit kids left disappointed with Christmas presents

As kids across the country begin writing their Christmas wish-lists with just 5 weeks until Christmas, new research
reveals buying gifts for children may be more scientific than it seems.

The poll of 2,000 UK parents by global toy brand Hasbro reveals over half (52%) of parents admit their child has
previously ended up disappointed with a Christmas present received from a family member or friend.

With 58% wishing that their children’s toys had a longer lifespan and 39% of parents stating that they’d like to know
more about how to choose suitable toys for their child, Hasbro has created a light-hearted and enlightening Play
Personality quiz to help parents identify which toys their children maybe more likely to fall in love with.

Aston spoke to child psychologist Laverne Antrobus.
