[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gift card is fine but give them some things to actually open too. It doesn’t have to be expensive stuff maybe things they’d be getting anyway: clothes, a new duffel bag for travel, etc stuff like that. And don’t skip the stockings! Kids love stockings. Actually for my kids that’s their favorite part. But I agree with a PP ask your kids what their expectations or hopes are so you can make sure to at least include their favorite parts of the holiday (not necessarily gifts but maybe your kids really love driving through a big lights display or making a gingerbread house or whatever) you can’t do everything but make sure to at least do their very fave things. Stockings don’t have to be landfill waste…they can be consumable things: foods, art supplies, nail polish, chapstick, etc.[/quote] +1[/quote]
