[quote=Anonymous]You said they have little kids - do you have older kids/no kids? I can understand why they might not be thrilled with the family experience gift…I’ve had to do stuff like that with my small kids. Thinking of one year when it was the nutcracker…man, for my adhd kid (& me), that was a nightmare. I love my family, but with small kids, holiday dinners at home are the best. Kids can play with cousins in a bedroom or basement, watch a Christmas movie, eat snacks, etc, & grownups can actually relax a little & socialize. Just wanted to throw out there that maybe they would love to spend time with you, but a family experience may not be the best way for them- they will most likely be more focused on helping small kids participate in the experience, behave appropriately in the setting, etc. This reminds me of going to family summer bbq/pool parties when we were the only ones with small kids - it is a much different experience vs when you have older/no kids.
