Is It possible to give too much to our kids at christmas?

Instead of MAKING them give a gift try sitting down and explaining the situation to the older children and let it be their choice. They may know someone from school or church or somewhere that they would like to share a toy with. Then let them wrap or be a part of the wrapping and the giving. Kids love giving gifts to others. If they decide that they don't want to do it then that would be alright too, just make it their decision.

I really like that idea!! And I know my daughter would definitely go for it!! Especially if I present the idea to them in a positive way! Katie loves to make others happy! Thank you so very much!!
