[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate clutter so I make the kids go through and donate their unwanted toys around birthdays and Christmas. I would prefer to get them fewer, but more expensive gifts, but other family will get them a bunch of small toys that they don't really play with. And blankets. My ILs buy the kids blankets every year, even though we have enough and tell them to stop.[/quote] I do the same thing. One thing needs to go out for each thing that comes in. My kids are teens, and I have managed to transition some of our relatives to either experience gifts, or souped up version of things that they need (e.g. kid actually needs shoes, but convinces Grandpa to give him a gift card to the shoe store that he can add to what I would usually spend and get nicer shoes).
