[quote=Anonymous]We have a high HHI and I’m not big on gifts for the kids. They get one stand out gift to share (same sex, less than 2 years apart) that is around $200 and some accessories. For me it’s mostly about all the clutter and that they have extended family giving a lot. They are also young so things may change but I definitely don’t feel the same desire as my mother (who grew up lower middle class and was middle/upper middle) to give me 30 presents under the tree. She wrapped up socks and underwear. We splurge on a lot in December, things like fancy Santa breakfasts at historic hotels, expensive play tickets, travel, the Nutcracker, etc. My kids are so ridiculously privileged in their day to day life I just don’t feel the need to shower then with toys on the holidays.
