[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think experiences are the way to go. It’s not terribly expensive - a nice toy costs $80-$90 anyway.  [/quote]

Maybe grandparents are willing to spend that much on your kids but with so many nieces and nephews I’m looking at $25-$30 per kid max. Less if I can find a good deal on a cool toy. [/quote]

$25 gift card to play place. Mom can tell them Aunt Larla is treating us to this outing!

$25 gift card to craft store. Craft supplies are consumable and the kids can pick out something to make.

$25 gift card to rec center. Can be put toward a fun class.

$25 gift card for putt putt, laser tag, the list goes on ... hopefully you know what your nieces and nephews are into.

We were just able to get 2 tickets to Monster Jam (for DH and DS) on sale for about $40, which is a little over your budget, but maybe do-able in a year you splurge more.

Or you can spend that on a toy that plenty of parents are saying will be played with twice and donated or stagnate in a closet.[/quote]
