    When my kids were toddlers their favorite gifts were GIANT boxes. We were able to get refrigerator boxes, and other huge boxes, and my kids spent hours inside them: coloring the walls, having tea parties, just playing. I think they slept a few nights in them too. Now they are in their 20's and they still talk of the boxes being their favorite gifts.

    • @DearDebt
      @DearDebt  2 года назад +2

      I LOVE that!!! My kids love giant boxes too. Anytime I have a big box I let them color it and make forts. It’s their favorite ❤️😍

      I nanny, and I started just before the pandemic started, so the boy was just over 4 and a half years old and the girl was nearly 8. Schools closed in mid-March, so I was with them every weekday afternoon. The parents had tons of deliveries for furniture/vacuums etc and we made houses, castles, restaurants, spaceships etc with them that we decorated with markers/stickers! It was so much fun, and we were so lucky that the children have a lovely garden and the weather was good. Boxes for the win/MVP!

    Maybe for your 2 year old something to pretend with like a Sarah silk ribbon dancer! It makes a great stand alone gift as well as stocking stuffer. It’s always fun for so many types of games (indoors or outdoors) and when not being used it takes up virtually no space! ((Bonus, aesthetically pleasing and no noise!))

    Great ideas!! I have a 3 year old daughter and her favorites are her tea set, Zingo game, Water Wow books, small character sets (her favorite is Minnie Mouse), baby dolls with stroller, Kinetic Sand, play doh kitchen set, Lego Duplo (zoo one and Minnie Mouse are her favorites) and Magnatiles. She is getting a Nugget, crawl thru IKEA tunnel, the Melissa and Doug cones, and a yoto player this year.

    *personalised childrens books* would be something along the lines of "budget gifts" to give to kids at a young and growing age (below 5) - exposing them to literature and reading while young which is great if you ask me

    Yesss, debt free december is here! 🥳 I was thinking about you earlier today when I realized debt free december was starting today! Yay! My children are teenagers and I don’t buy gifts for other children at the moment but I’m still curious to see what you’ve bought 😆 those leggings with pockets 😍 We love pockets! My kids are both getting Lego, they love building and sadly don’t need their moms help anymore 😂 I love building with Legos too! Then they’ll get some clothes, gaming accessories, books 🤔 I’m sure there is more but I can’t remember at the moment 😆

    I've started my Christmas Shopping, I've been doing it online for the past few weeks, I've also been doing online Christmas Shopping ever since the Pandemic started, and it just went on from there, I'm doing it in June, and continued doing it all the way to November, sometimes I would do it, when my husband Jason David takes our five children, our youngest 3-year-old daughter named Kayleigh, our next youngest 5-year-old son named Julian, our next oldest 7-year-old son named Derek, our next oldest 9-year-old son named Jaden, and our oldest 11-year-old son named Jacob. out of the house, like, taking them grocery shopping, or just shopping, etc. etc. I've been going on websites, like Walmart, Target, Khol's, and Amazon.

    Ah Legos we didn't realize how many our son had till we moved. Lets just say grandma gets him a set for his birthday and Christmas every year. She started when he was 3, he's now 13, so hundreds of Legos. He is very serious about them. I also have started getting a board or card game we play as a family on Christmas. For your daughter I would say a kids book about dentistry maybe a good fit.

      @DearDebt  2 года назад +7

      If you watched the video we didn’t spend it all, we also buy for 4 nieces and nephews (3 I showed gifts for in this video), we also buy for our parents. That budget is also including our Christmas cards and any wrapping paper or misc things related to Christmas. We still had money left so we donated to a local charity as well as adopted a family for Christmas. It is a budget channel. And not everyone budgets the same, and that’s okay.
