I am kind of late on this bandwagon for last year!!! LOL! But, it is July and the holiday season is upon us! So this thread needs to get going again.
I have one daughter and son-in-law with 4 grandchildren. They are minimalists and don’t want stuff for themselves but I know that even though they have never gone big at Christmas with gifts for the kiddos, I cannot help myself.
One year I made my grandchildren pajama bottoms and purchased long sleeved shirts to match. Because they grow so fast at their ages (8, 6, 5, 7 mo) these things are quickly handed down. I also made each of them something special. My 6 year old granddaughter LOVES to dress up. She was using a blanket for a veil for getting married!! ha ha! So, I made her a special veil with bead work and she just loved it.
This year, I am going to visit them and take each of the older 3 on separate dates. Just to spend time with them. We have also decided on experiences rather than things.
