- What I Got My Kids For Christmas || Large Homeschool Family Christmas On A Budget
Today I am sharing what I got my 6 kids for Christmas and how much we spent on it all. We always seek to shop on a budget but this year it was extra important that we keep things low cost due to the rise in costs. I hope this will inspire you and give you ideas on how to shop on a budget yourself.

Woah! This is probably the BEST Christmas gift video I’ve ever seen! You found AMAZING prices while also finding such good quality and thoughtful gifts! Totally mom goals! 👏🏻
Thanks!
@@LifeintheMundaneWHAT 3 gifts? What is wrong with you PLEASE DONT TAKR THID LADIES ADVICE HER LIDS ARE LYING GHEY ARENT HAPPY PRE TEEN boys??? Knock your cheap ass crap off and give these kids a decent Christmas! In therapy all their life cause of this! Yuck yuck
For the last couple years we have tried to get back to the real reason of the holiday which is the birth of Jesus. We now only do 3 presents each. But I’ve had a hard time sticking to that 😅thank you!
Yes some years it can definitely be tricky lol 😂
You are one wonderful Mama! So thoughtful in your gift giving! I think you did a great job buying those gifts for your children.
Thank you
Those 3D printed gifts are so cool! What a great idea! I have a girl who would love that chess set! ❤️
Yes I’m so excited for them to open those!
This is amazing. I’ve spent well over that on my one daughter and I wouldn’t even say I’ve went overboard or got her anything too wild. Prices are just insane and I don’t think I’m a very savvy shopper tbh. Would’ve loved to have watched this before I finished her shopping 😂
I’m glad you enjoyed it and yes prices are ridiculous
You did an amazing job. Those Lego finds alone are awesome. I love that they are also getting gifts that are made by their dad. Definitely gonna be things they keep forever. ❤
Thanks
You are my gift on a budget inspiration you do such a good job at not only being a good steward of your finances but being an expert on your children and getting them gifts that make them feel seen and loved 🥰 I admire you so much ❤ Thank you for doing this collab with me
Thanks for inviting me
This is great!
Total respect for you. We find brand new games, jigsaws, books and toys in thrift stores and its the best way to shop. Watching vulgar videos at Christmas with kids opening over 50 presents each to me is outrageous even if you have the budget. One kid actually said I'm bored now. Kids need to appreciate money and more importantly be humble and not spoiled. Great video. Your children will be grounded and appreciate everything they get later in life. Great mum, well done ❤
❤️
Awesome gifts and awesome deals! I love homemade gifts so the 3D printed gifts are by far the best. They’ll love them. Thank you for sharing
You’re very welcome
I love the minimus of the Christmas kiss I love the fact that your husband is making some gifts that’s really adorable I love the fact that you’re working together and that you thought about all the gifts for which you have got your children it’s so sweet
Thanks
Very inspiring! Thanks for sharing! Many of us are in the same boat and this was helpful to know a great Christmas can be done on without spring a lot of money. Also, the 3d gifts are so sweet! How thoughtful 🥰
I’m so glad it was an encouragement
I never see Legos marked down that much!!! 😮 you got really great things!!! We also love to look all year and find the clearance deals!! If you give yourself enough time you can still find things specific to your kids and not just random stuff ❤ your Christmas will be so fun!!!
Exactly I think that’s my favorite tip for saving money is shopping all year long.
Such affordable great gifts!! Loved seeing what you got! I'm loving the personalized gifts! So sweet!
❤️ Thanks
Love seeing your gifts. We also do 3 gifts for each of our kids. But it’s hard for me because I grew up getting a ton of toys. Plus family and friends saying its not enough. I usually buy multiple gifts and wrap them together for 1 gift. But this definitely shows that I can definitely do 1 gift at a time. Loved this! ❤
Yes I sometimes hear from others saying that’s not enough but truly I have found my kids appreciate not being overwhelmed and it also makes there rooms more manageable for them.
Wow, wow, wow I am amazed! What wonderful thoughtful gifts! (love the 3-D printer items) I am just blown away with what you guys spent! Great job momma! It's so hard finding deals that good in Canada. Your kids are going to have a wonderful Christmas morning! Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas 🎅
❤️
Great video. I'm sure that they would appreciate the thought that you all put into their gifts this year.
I hope so!
One idea to consider if any of the kids really miss the matching PJs - craft stores run some good sales on blank t-shirts every couple of weeks, and day after thanksgiving will have 40-50-60% off coupons. So you cld buy blank matching t shirts in all sizes, and a set of acrylic or fabric paint, and have the artsier members of the family make matching Christmas shirts and or PJ tops!
Love that idea
We are giving up the pj tradition too this year. Too expensive and most of the time the ones I get aren’t very good quality. They don’t last
@@ritadyer3770 totally get it
Wow, good job mama! Your dealing finding is stellar. Last year I got most of grandkids gifts at the thrift store. Many of them were new. Bravo!!
That is awesome
Great ideas! I have a homeschool mom friend who gives her kids 3 gifts each - like Wisemen. Cute finds!
Love that
Just wanted to say hi from a fellow 2nd gen homeschool mom! I started kindergarten with my oldest this year. Something I dreamed about since I was a young kid. I'm so thankful to be able to homeschool and be a sahm ❤
Loved this video! I was able to catch some clearance items for Christmas this year. I also like finding stuff on fb market place too 👍
Oh yes FB marketplace funds are the best
Looks good. Less toys means they will actually play with the ones they get rather than being overwhelmed with loads. Looks like your children will have a good time.
Thanks
Wow the 3D printed gifts are so special and unique. What an amazing thoughtful idea!
Thanks
Love the 3d printer ideas! So cool and thoughtful! That chess set is amazing
Yes I can’t wait till it’s done
Love the board games and Lego deals! Our family always gets legos ,movies,board games,clothing,books mostly for Christmas! Plus family Christmas pjs! Target and Wal-Mart have great wide sizes for on the budget Christmas pjs!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aww, I miss my kids being little! We did the pajama thing too, haha! Hey, that's great savings, you were able to get Legos at such a great price! Thanks for the memories!☃️🎄🌟
You’re very welcome
You’re an amazing deal finder! This has given me so much inspiration!!
Yay! I hope you find amazing deals
I’m always amazed at your book outlet finds. I’m never that lucky!
😂 yeah I check often which is pro and a con
I love the gifts that Mark is making!
Me too!
I actually loved this video. Everything was quality and thoughtful. Great job!
Thanks
This is a fantastic video! I was curious what we'd see out of influencers this year, with soaring prices on everything. I'm happy to say that you are added to the list of realistic influencers that understand their content actually influences people. (Crazy, I know, that most still don't understand this.) You've eased my mind and helped many resolve to spend less money and be more intentional with their gifts.❤
So glad this could be an encouragement.
I love the 3D printed gift ideas. so thoughtful!
I can’t wait to see them open them
Wow great prices on the lego sets. Love these gift videos. So helpful
Glad you like them!
3D printed gifts! That’s a great idea! 😄
I’m so excited about those
These are great gifts! I shop clearance year round due to two of my kids having December birthdays haha. The last couple of years I have actually gotten a lot clearance toys online! Super convenient 👌
That is awesome!
As a major bookworm, I love that you got all of your kids books!
Yes we love giving books and board games
So many fun ideas here! Love it!
Thanks
What an Inspiration your video was. and what an amazing Job you did for your children. although I don't have any small children at home any more, I have been dreading the holiday shopping this year, with everything being so pricy. You're video gives me hope in finding some good deals out there, even for the older children that are grown. Many Thanks.
I’m so glad it was an encouragement!
What wonderful gift ideas , especially the 3D items !
Thank you! 😊
That is impressive. Love the 3D printed stuff especially.
Thanks
Great gifts! I was able to find some great Walmart clearance for my daughter and nieces/cousins too!
That is awesome!
Fantastic 🎁!
Love all of them!
Thanks
I loved seeing the 3D prints. My husband has a 3D printer and gives them as gifts too. One year we gave family printed ornaments.
Oh I love that
You did awesome on your shopping!!! And I agree with you about most kids also get gifts from other relatives, also.
Thank you
Way to go finding so many great deals!!! ❤
Thanks, I’m really excited!
That total is amazing!! Props to you! Great work.
Thanks
Those gifts your hubby has made are brilliant ❤️
I’m so excited about those
You did such an awesome job Katie!
Thanks. It very much was God providing.
You are gonna love the mighty jack books! One of our favorite authors over here and we are actually getting several more books by him for the kids this year! Loved this video, btw. I always do a similar stories series on IG but this is making me want to break back into editing and make a video for old times sake!
You should I would love to see it!
The printed gifts your husband is making are so sweet!
I agree
Shop all year round. Great video!!
❤️
Love the 3D printer gift ideas! My husband has made gifts for our kids and nephews in the past and it’s always a hit. He made puzzle toys, fidget toys, little puzzle containers, a snoopy for my daughter, Mario brothers stuff for my son, a cool water bottle holder for my son’s bunk bed, cute little taco holders that look like trucks… He’s designed some things himself with an app on his iPad which takes more time but most things he finds on Thingaverse.
That is awesome.
I just found your video and glad I did. I have been introduced to bookoutlet. Thank you from a book-loving family. Subscribing!😊
Welcome!
I have kids about the same ages and we do similar stuff. I have a shelf in my closet with a box where I store the gifts I find on clearance. Also I LOVE Book Outlet for gifts. I'm envious of your Lego finds!
My older kids love the Mighty Jack series and the companion series Zita. It was one of the first books my reluctant reader read all the way through on his own.
Oh that’s so good to know. I really hope he loves it
Wow, you did so good and Insane deals, great job
I’m very thankful for the deals we found
That panda is perfectly on point! Haha
I know right, it’s obnoxious but she will love it.
You have picked out some wonderful gifts!!
Thanks!
That’s such a great idea and you got amazing things.
Thanks
We love the 5 min story books. I think we are gonna be up to like 10 of them after christmas
Love that
You found some GREAT deals!!! 😊😊🎉
Yes I’m so excited
Beautiful and very thoughtful gifts
Thank you
My Dad has loved printing Christmas gifts and birthday gifts with his 3D printer...and I have him print me some manipulatives for homeschool once in a while...
That’s awesome
You always find such good deals!
I’m thankful for clearance deals
U did great... I'm glad your kids love these things... my kids are another story lol
Thanks
Wow. Great finds
Thanks
Oh my gosh! Sophia wanted that stable so bad but I just couldnt shell out the money. I wish our Kroger had had it marked down. What a great deal!
Yeah I could/would not spend full price on it
I can't believe how many people are losing their minds over this. These gifts are thoughtful, quality and great.
We do our gifts on epiphany, the twelfth day of the christmas season, Jan 6, to celebrate the wise men giving gifts of gold, francicnse and myrrh. So our kids get a want (gold), religious (francinsense) often a book or artwork, and myrrh something for the body. This year they will get fun ski masks so hopefully they will play outside more in the winter. They are always very happy. One gift they love is worth exponentially more than a pile they like or don't care about.
We do also do Christmas jammies, cocoa night, movie nights during advent. Christmas day we will go to mass and do a puzzle and snuggle up and watch movies, eat favorite foods and go for a family walk. They have loved that every year! 🤷♀️
Sounds like a great Christmas
Fantastic!!!!
Thank you
Wow!! Amazing and cool stuff and the prices awesome!!!!!!
❤️❤️
We like to limit gifts as well, I agree that kids can get overwhelmed with too much. ❤
Yes, I have found it’s the most loving thing to do.
Mighty Jack series is a big HIT in our house!
Oh I’m so glad to hear that!
Love that Star Wars Spot It! Game!
Yes she is going to love it 😍
Brilliant ideas xx
Thanks
Thank you for this!
Your welcome! My stockings on a budget video is coming out in the morning. I hope it can be helpful as well.
Those 3d printed gifts are the best.
I’m really excited for them to be opened
I dont play chess but that dragon chess set would make me learn...real quick....lol....The best gift for my children was a no sew fleece blanket. I found their favorite fleece theme. Wrapped it. After Christmas I took each one individually and let them purchase the other side then I took time for each one and we locked ourselves in a room laughing and giggling making it together. They are now 22 and 18. Finally making them new ones this year as a suprise from me. Because at 51 I decided to start sewing and I'm making my first projects, matching pillowcases. We were also books, games, Legos for my son and anything barbie. We had a rule in our entire family growing up birthdays were what they needed and christmas was toys.
That sounds wonderful!
You could do Christmas socks which is still a way to take a cute matching picture but is much more affordable than pj's , another idea is a special Christmas mug for each kid ( 2-5 dollars at Ross or the dollar tree even).
Oh I love that idea
This was great. Thank you.
Thank you for watching
My kids have read Mighty Jack multiple times, so good chance your son will enjoy them!
Ohhh I love hearing that!!!
Love those little Chelsea barbies for the little girls!
I can’t wait to see them open them
Awesome gifts...almost wish I could see them open them!
I can’t wait to see it too
The Mighty Jack books are awesome! Anything from Ben Hatke is amazing really.
That’s great to know. It’s a new series for me so I love hearing other’s experiences
Love you guys!!
Thanks!!!
Crazy deals! Go mama
I’m so thankful for the deals we found!!
What a good video what a great budget… I’m hoping I can find great sales on Black Friday
I hope so too. There are some really great ones that I have seen already
Wow that’s quite impressive. I like to collect my rewards points and spend them. I think next year I’m gonna collect all my reward points from some of the stores that I shop at and just hold onto them for the year and then cash them out when Christmas happens.
That’s a great idea
I also have to give you a shout out "thank you!" for the video on creative fabrica!! I just printed SO much stuff 😂 definitely worth the $3!
Oh good I’m so glad. I’m the same way I have been printing so many things
Great idea for a heating aid case 😉
Yes I’m hoping it will help her keep track of them lol 😂
Wow good job!!! Yes, a token of love at Christmas. Jesus is the best gift of all! ♥️
Amen
We love Zita the Space Girl and have heard great things about Mighty Jack!
good to know
We save up all year for our christmas.. we don't buy anything during the year so we just love a full tree hehe
You did great finding all these deals 👏
I bought 3 pairs of new pjs for $15 at kohl's 2 days after Christmas last year. They were almost $75 before Christmas! Ha! Yipppeee
That’s awesome
Even though there’s not many gifts all kids deserve lots of presents but the ones u picked are pretty good
Thanks for watching
Wow. Those deals were impressive.
Thanks
Really enjoyed!
Thanks
Amazing deals!
Yes I was so thankful for that
Thanks for this video I love it! 😊❤️♥️
It's the day after Christmas and I love watching videos about what people got for themselves and each other for Christmas day but I dislike the ones where people buy loads of presents, and get really expensive ones. Because I use to do that every year 😞 I use to buy 20-30 presents and waste loads of money only for my child not to remember what I got him each previous year because he was so overwhelmed, and it just built up clutter and I wasted so much money. And he got greedy, ungrateful and spoilt my own fault cos I was giving him too much. And I use to buy 10+ presents for the adults. But the past two years and this year I have cut it right down to 5 presents each. And done the 5 gift rule of getting something they want, something they need, something to wear and something to read and something to do. And this year my child was much more appreciative and grateful infact he was amazingly kind and thankful and I didn't spend as much and there was less clutter and waste and each present felt more thoughtful. It felt like my child really took the time to look and appreciate each present instead of throwing it to the side to grab another..so I know I made the right choice. I also put the presents in Christmas gift bags instead of wrapping paper this year so I can reuse them next year. And instead of stockings I did Christmas themed boxes filled with small items with the same rule of something they want, need,read, eat and to do. And it felt more treasured by them. And the boxes can be used again next year aswell. But I like this video because it assures me that less is more. You got your kids a few presents each and they are such wonderful presents! ❤️ Such thought and care has gone into each one. You have done amazing!! And I hope you had a lovely Christmas ❤️
Thank you
I totally agree but less is more that they can definitely get overwhelmed I have three grown children and five grandchildren and I’ve always noticed that no matter how many gifts I have but always noticed they pick one and discard the rest..So for us so that is why we have decided to just buy the one big thing or two or three little things that they want
Yes!!!
I’m a SAHM of 9 😜. I got the little ones matching pjs at Carter’s for $6 a set, but this year I am skipping the bigger kids, my husband, and I. We have ours from last year and other pjs. The older they get the more they cost! Maybe we will do it next or maybe not. We are doing a family gift of new board and card games! Best of wishes!
Love that
I think you are doing a great job
Thank you
- I only have one child -age 14 I save up all year for it. Doesn’t take much to put back money every paycheck. I do spend a lot every year but its never on crap toys he will never play with. you did a good job with the budget, the gifts are nice!
Sounds like you have an awesome system!!!
That dice tower is so nice omg
Yeah I can’t wait for them to open it
