Getting for my kids is so easy. Handsome is very specific in his likes and wants. Goddess is super easy because she "LOVES" everything.
I really love buying gifts for kids. It is so fun. I just buy things I would want to play with. Being a "big kid" makes it really easy.
For Handsome's first two years I always got him educational toys. As an older, first time mom I wanted to teach him. All my time was spent with him which is why he was spelling at 2 years old. I have video of me doing a puppet show for him while reading a book when he was 2 months old. Poor kid!
When he started Occupational Therapy most of his OT toys looked like this.
I love mixing toys with education.
Now, I love the pretend play toys.
If I had more room and money, I would have bought Handsome something like this.
Isn't virtual wishing fun?
For the kids in my son's class this year I got a lot of them these.
Cute right? Melissa and Doug products are awesome.
Hopefully we get a financial reprieve next month. I am gifted out.
March and June are crazy birthday months for us. I love shopping for gifts for kids for the same reason as you do :) Sometimes I buy my daughter gifts I would have loved to have had when I was little, just so I can play vicariously through her!
ReplyDeleteWow so many birthdays. You were a busy bee!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you when it comes to buying presents for kids. I prefer clothes but when a kid asks for a specific toy I love to try and get it.
