[quote=Anonymous]Opening gifts at bday parties was always a favorite thing to do at parties growing up. Always part of the fun of the party! I didn't realize until having kids years back that people don't open gifts anymore. I was saddened by that, as is my eldest child. He spends the time picking something out his friend will like and is eager to give it to them. Then they just put it aside. My kids don't give a crap how "expensive" a gift is. I think it's ridiculous that parents actually judge other people's gifts as others are saying. I know that when gift time happens at the parties I've been to, us parents are chatting in the background not paying attention and the kids are having a blast. I will continue to let my kids open gifts at their home bday parties. All the guests are also welcome to open them up and play with them with my children for the remainder of the party. Never had an issue. Ever. [/quote]
