[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I told my MIL I started an Amazon wish list for the girls, so that *I* could keep track of the things I wanted to get for them. "My friend Becca suggested that; it was SO helpful to get organized that way!" And then she asked for the link. :) When she asked "what's new?" DH told her "We've decided we're not getting the girls plastic toys made in China. We found several companies that make toys in the US that we really like." Now, four years later, sometimes she goes "off-list" but she has a very clear understanding of the types of toys I want my kids to have. When she's gone clothing shopping with me for them and pulls out a sweatshirt that has the word GAP plastered across the chest and asked "How about this?" I've answered "Oh, well I like the color for DD, but we don't believe in the kids being a walking advertisement so won't get them stuff with brands on them in big lettering."
