[quote=Anonymous]OP here. 1. Kids get between 8 and 12 gifts each. 2. Costs can vary, but we are on the less expensive side-- I think the most I've ever spent on a single gift for a kid is $80-100 and that's rare. There are usually one or two things for around $50 and then everything else is $20 or less. Our budget is $200 per kid and realize f I come in under, I put the balance in the kid's save ngs accounts. 3. We give practical items including clothes, shoes, and school items. So usually kids get 3-4 toys, 3-4 books, and 2-3 clothing or school-related items. 4. No true philosophy except we try to get stuff out kids will really like and focus on that over quantity. My parents used to buy us a lot of gifts but I remember getting lots of stuff I didn't want or was indifferent to. If my kid gets 5 gifts but really loves all of them, I'm much happier than if they get 14 gifts and only care about 1 or 2.[/quote]
