Fellow mylotters with Christmas season fast approaching I am wondering on a limited budget, what I can give as gifts? I have somehow think to give gifts to the kids instead of the adults. I have started my list this morning since i got a dozen or more of godchildren and kids of my very close friends. Any suggestions there?

Wow...you do have a lot of children to buy for. If you had some homemade ideas like the previous responder suggested...that would be great but if your like me and don't have time...because you would have a lot....I might consider coloring books and crayons or those velvet posters that some with markers to color in with. You can find a lot of great little gifts in the hobby section that are inexpensive and children usually love them. I once got some little stained window type projects for children that were very inexpensive. Pretty hair accessories or stickers for the girls are gists that they really like and for the boys..maybe balls or those little metal cars..they are pretty reasonable I think. You could buy a large pack of the cars and give each boy two or three each. Take care and good luck. Christmas shopping can be tough.

Do you have anything homemade or are you good at knitting, maybe, or painting? Also, bargain stores and thrift stores and flea markets are GREAT for finding cheap, but awesome, things. I get a lot of stuff from there if I don't make my gifts. Saves a ton of money!
