The kids have plenty. Please, do not feel compelled toward gift-giving. We are having a very tight year financially and are celebrating a simplified Christmas. We won't be giving gifts to others ourselves. We are finding tons of meaning in a more spiritually-focused Christmas, and do not have a need to have more gifts under our tree.
All that said, if you are among the folks trying to get a list for ideas, here you go:
- A Signing Time video...the kids don't have"Favorite Sport," "My House," or "Box of Crayons." They'd love any of them. They'd also love any Signing Time produced musical CD, of which they have none.
- A Jumping Pixies Game, Dulcimer, a Pulley, a bouncy Pony Ball, Woody Click Car Transporter, or Basic Marble Run from Magic Cabin.
- An Inflatable Solar System from Leaps and Bounds.
- A Set of Junior Colored Pencils, Water Colors, an Indoor Swing, a Wooden Doll Family, a Doll's Bunny Rabbit and Hutch, Mom and Baby Panda Puzzle, or Your Body Puzzles (Girl or Boy Set) from Oompa Toys.
- A Flower Press, Juice Squeezing Activity, or Nutcracker from Montessori Services.
- A subscription to Animal Baby, or BabyBug
- A Pretend Pocket Knife or Felt Tea Bags from Etsy.
- A Wooden Cash Register, or Small Wooden Kitchen Playset from Kids Surplus.
