I made the mistake of forgetting batteries for years with my kids so now that I have grandkids, I always make sure I have them on hand. I got the two youngest grandkids battery operated alarm clocks for Christmas.
It seems like I am always forgetting batteries, especially when I give electronic gifts for birthdays. This happened just a month ago. My son wants a remote control car and my daughter wants a baby doll this year.
I don’t recall any major events of forgetting batteries, but I’m not much on electronics. My husband, however, is obsessed & ensures that he doesn’t ever run out of batteries. He stocks up at Sam’s Club or if he sees them on sale anywhere. We have several baskets in a cabinet with various sized batteries just in case something runs out or if we purchase something new & it is “batteries not included.” Our 8-month-old doesn’t have a very long Christmas list, however, my husband has lots of toys on his list 🙂
I haven’t forgotten them, but I have had them run out early and not had spares. My daughter wants makeup this year.
I bought a giant industrial sized pack of batteries, but the kids have swiped them and now I don’t know where they are. Might be a sad Christmas.
Yes when bought a remote control car for my son. My kids want video games for Christmas.
Didnt forget but one year hubby bought cheap generic ones and they didnt make it through christmas day
Kids are wanting bikes for xmas this year!
Once gave a flashlight as a gift thinking that it came with batteries. It did not, and they had none at the time. So embarrasing
We always have too many batteries lol. On their lists is video games and the selfie game.
I forgot to buy batteries for the Movie Scene It! controllers for the Xbox 360 so we could not play it right away. I do not have any kids of my own, but I have an adorable little nephew. He loves anything that is Mickey related. He would love the Mickey Mouse Walkie Talkies.
Just a few weeks ago the power went out. Of course all the flashlights had dead batteries and we couldn’t find a single D cell battery in the house. Thankfully we have lots of candles! Thank you for the great giveaway. Happy holidays!
I can’t recall a time. My nephew wants a bike.
Yes! We got our son a RC car for christmas a couple years ago and forgot about getting batteries, oops!!
I cannot remember ever forgetting batteries on Christmas morning but I know we go through alot. This year my kids want gift cards so they can pick out their own stuff. Guess mom and dad are not great at getting the right stuff!
I have never forgotten but my niece did. They pulled what they could from other items in the home. lol 🙂 I do not have kids at home so I have no wish list. (I would give the gift card to my niece)
Batteries are always forgotten and always needed!!
I do not think I have ever forgotten batteries with a gift. I check and recheck. My daughter wants xbox games.

I remember as kids getting toys without batteries and having to wait all night until we could go to the store the next day to get them. It was torture! My girls have not have that happen as we have always seemed to have a store open to grab those last minute batteries. Thank you for the wonderful giveaway!

A long time ago I forgot batteries. And another time I thought I had enough batteries when I didn’t. One daughter wants a large stuffed lion and the other wants a glockenspiel.
I forget batteries on a regular basis. My boys just assume we need to get batteries when they get something that needs them.
I remember my parents forgetting batteries when I was younger and we either had to wait until the next day or hope someone else in the family had some extras when we went there to visit.

I’m pretty good about keeping AA and AAA batteries around the house now that I have kids. Some of their toys require Cs or Ds and we don’t usually have those on hand.

Oh I forgot them one time after we got a remote control boat and went to the lake. We took al our stuff down to the beach and set up for a fun afternoon. Realized…I forgot the batteries. 🙁 We still had a great time, and when we were done, we went to the store and got batteries and went back to the beach to play for awhile with the boat.

I do not know what the kids want for Christmas. It’s going to be a low-key Christmas at our house. Maybe a gift for each of them, but the rest is going to be about doing things together and feeding them great stuff!
I have forgotten batteries far too many times. The first time was for a ride on horse for my daughter. This year the kids seem to want musical items the most.
