I have two boys 4,6 and a new born girl of only 10 days old. I want their crhistmas to be the best christmas ever.

I’m trying to find Christmas gifts for some kids I work with at my church and babysit. Between all of them, I’ll have to buy around 25 gifts. I need something cheap, but I don’t want to get something they’ll never use or will throw away. Any thoughts? Thanks!

My son’s school held a school store for a week and we sent him with money and a list of people to buy for, but he didn’t get to buy what he wanted and now is disappointed. Is there a website or store that he can buy similar gifts for family members (world greatest dad type things)? The items were for about $5 or less, perfect for four and five year olds.

When I was little Santa Clause left my gifts “under the tree” unwrapped, when my hubby was little he says Santa left his gifts”under the tree” wrapped. What do most people do? I feel it is a waste of paper to wrap Santa gifts, and my hubby agrees, so we do not wrap our kids gifts.

I have four children and sometimes I think I buy them too many gifts. I don’t want to spoil them. What is the average number of gifts for kids for x-mas?
I should have put in ages 15,11,8,5.

I was just curious as to how many “santa” presents you get your kids. Do you always try to keep it a certain number every year? I think most people over do it and buy to much, I know I do. I have three children and I think 5 gifts each is reasonable. What are your thoughts?

I’d love to use pictures, printed out from digital camera, and possibly recycled Christmas cards to personalize the gifts. What could we make?

Thanks for your ideas! Merry Christmas.

Would you rather they ask you or the kids or just buy whatever?

My kids make wish lists.

from santa, or do you put from mom and dad? What do you teach your kids about santa and is this a good Idea to do for our son?
