[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do big gifts for my DD’s December birthday, but I would probably give a bike when the weather warms up, even if it’s not for an “occasion” [/quote] We never made our kid "wait" on something that they needed or was appropriate. This was one thing that DH and I decided early on. new backpack, instrument, computer, new Beats headphones, bike, scooter, etc.... why should they have to wait for their birthday, which is somewhat arbitrary - one born in July the other in Jan? We ended up getting these items whenever they were necessary (previous one broke for example). Birthday ended up not being big gifts. We celebrated, went to a special restaurant and had a party - the friends usually gave the gifts (usually junky until they got older). For us, Christmas was big.[/quote]
