The UK's most pampered toddler is being given a whopping £2,500 worth of presents for Christmas this year. The two-year-old is set to receive 100 gifts from his doting mum including a Burberry two-piece, a trip to the Canary Islands and a ride-on train.
Kasey Akram, 33, loves lavishing her son, Jareem Akram, with gifts and has previously bought him a variety of expensive trinkets including Gucci shoes and a £1,000 solid gold dummy. Alongside these items, the mother also treats her toddler to trips abroad and baths of milk and honey.
Now, she is gearing up for another present haul for her beloved child with no gift too big, reports the Mirror. The full-time mum says she has been saving up since May to give Jareem everything he wants this Christmas.
Kasey said: "Things are expensive but I start getting presents in May. I do it bit by bit. I have a saving system.
"I'm spending about £2,500 in total. I'm spending about £1,000 and his dad is doing the rest.
"His dad says, 'Why are you buying this stuff in May?' and I say, 'You've got to think ahead because times are hard'. I'm hoping he's going to have 100 presents to open on the day - I like the floor filled."
The 33-year-old has the toddler's father walking a tight line when it comes to her baby boy, having previously kicked him out of the family home because he worked night shifts and was disturbing the infant’s sleep. She also told him not to bother with a birthday gift for her this year and to save the money for Jareem's Christmas.
Kasey is splashing the cash for her toddler, despite her family not celebrating the holiday, and is going all out on decorations including a seven-foot Christmas tree. She is also planning a family visit to 'Santa's Sleepover' at Alton Towers for £475
Kasey said: "A lot of my family don’t celebrate Christmas so it's just for Jareem really. He's got 33 stocking fillers and then I've got plenty of presents.
"He said he wanted a dolphin which I can't buy, so instead I'm taking him to the Canary Islands in the summer - we're going to a water park where you can see dolphins.
"It's about £1,300 and it's his main present and his first holiday - he'll be two-and-half when we go. I want to get him something to wear for Christmas Day or Eve - I like Burberry so I want to get him a Burberry two-piece.
"He wants a ride-on train that you sit on and ride around – you stick the track together and then ride around on it. I thought I'd put it around the Christmas tree and put it up on the night before, I’m also trying to get a snow machine.
"Jareem has a Christmas tree, it's a little three-foot one and then he’s going to have a six-foot one is his bedroom and I’m ordering a seven-foot one for the living room.
"When he wakes up, he’ll have his presents under there and then more downstairs. We're going to go to Santa's Sleepover at Alton Towers – it's like Lapland, they make it snow and you get a letter and a gift from Santa."
Despite the lavish spending, Kasey insists that she does not want to raise a brat. She wants Jareem to know the value of money and how fortunate he is, so makes him donate gifts to those in needs.
Kasey said: "We give out scarves, socks, soaps, we wrap the empty shoe boxes up and give them out to the homeless people outside the shops. He's also picked a present to give away to Cash for Kids - they give a present to local hostels and charities, to help people on low incomes get gifts.
"We do what we do every year where we make Christmas cupcakes and mice pies and make Christmas boxes and take them around. We take a sack and Jareem in his pram – he can't be thinking you don't give back."
