There are few things more exciting for kids than making up their Christmas present list in the run up to the big day.
While the items on these lists will change depending on your children's ages, one thing that's guaranteed is that there's always one must-have toy all kids want in the run up to Christmas. So while it's good to know in advance so you can scour online, spare a thought for mums and dads in the 1980s and 1990s.
For years, anxious parents had to endure queuing for hours, and sometimes overnight, just to get that year's most popular toy. So put yourself in their shoes, and imagine trudging from department store to department store looking for that one toy that every other parent is also after.
