[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't give money to a charity.

How about a Kindle for reading?

How is her room?  A redo is nice.

We have hue lights all over our house.  You need a hub for some so they can get pricy.  Best Buy usually puts them on sale/best price and Costco.  Other ones don't require a hub but make sure they are URL rated.[/quote]

I'm the PP who mentioned giving money to a charity and while I definitely would not recommend it as the only gift, my kids really loved it. The oldest is really social justice oriented and my youngest loves animals, so they felt great finding charities and kind of being able to do something about those things. [/quote]

DP: My kids at 10-12  loved it when their grandparents gave a donation to heifer.org in their name.  The idea that there was this real live interesting animal that would make a difference in a family's well-being was really compelling to them.  They loved reading about it and just even the concept that an animal could improve a family's fortune rather than cost a lot of money (like our pets!) was super eye-opening.  It surprised me how much they liked it. But it was at Christmas and they already got a lot of other gifts too, so I agree on the "not the only gift" caveat.[/quote]
