[quote=Anonymous]Our mantra is "Oohh, that is nice. You could put it on your list." My kids bdays happen to be midway through the year, so when they ask for something, we say no in the moment, but remind them they can put it on their bday/Christmas list. This past Christmas, we had a long talk with them (ages 3 and 5) about how Santa brings SOME but not ALL of the things on the list. We also enforce that if they break or lose something, it does not automatically get replaced. They get presents on special occasions only, I don't really buy toys any other time. They get new clothes or shoes when they outgrow the old ones. [/quote]
