[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is turning 8 soon. I got her a fancy origami book that is $14 and comes with origami paper. Plus I will give her a gift certificate from me to her saying we can have a baking afternoon. [/quote]

Is this all your dd is getting for her bday?  Or does she have gifts from family and friends too?  My dd would cry her eyes out if this was all she got for her bday.[/quote]

Yikes.  Sorry to hear that.  Have you tried working with her to be more appreciative and less materialistic?  You don't say how old she is, but maybe she'll improve in this area as she matures.[/quote]

Whoa, sorry but i gotta side with the cry her eyes out PP on this one. A book about origami and a card? We are a non-materialistic crunchy family but that is pretty slim pickings.[/quote]

DD LOVES origami - she was introduced to it when there was that tsunami in Asia a couple of years ago and is forever asking to use my computer to learn how to make new animals and things, and loves when there's scrap paper she can use to make stuff. So I know she'll love this. She's 9 - she doesn't look at a gift, decide how much money it cost, and base whether or not she likes it on that. [/quote]
