Author: So we bought toys for our niece and nephew in Sweden and realized that shipping would cost twice as much as the toys. Amazon.com won’t deliver the books that we picked out for the kids until February. I don’t want to seem like Scrooge, but I have no idea how to give these kids a Christmas present. I feel a little bit incorrect writing to their mother and offering her money to shop for the kids. Any suggestions?
Like I said, shipping small toys from the US to Sweden cost upwards of , and Amazon.com won’t deliver the books until February.
I was able to make some ornaments for the kids on cafepress.com and ship them for . I e-mailed their mom to ask her to wrap the gifts when they arrived. Thanks for your answers!

I have a dilemma with buying for my two kids…my son is 12 and my daughter is 9. They have both mentioned a few things they want but they are just ridiculously overpriced. I try to teach them to take care of the things that are important to them but it has yet to sink in. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on gifts–and their dad too (we are divorced)-so they pretty much get what they want. I have considered not buying them anything this year and giving them money instead. I was hoping that if they were to buy the things they wanted they might take better care of their things. Is this a good or bad idea?? Does anybody have any other suggestions?
I am looking to donate to a chairity that takes underprivlidged children out to a store and gives them money ( ?) and helps them pick out gifts for their familys. then they would gift wrap the presents and Santa would visit and give the kids a wrapped gift to put under the tree for themselves. Our local (Sacramento area) Kmart used to do this years ago.
Does anybody know of a group doing this?
I suck at giving gifts and I am looking for a bit of help this year with my gift shopping. Here’s some information:
She loves to garden (Im looking for any new gardening tools that she would like)
Her job is cleaning houses (So maybe some device that could help her out with that)
Also, I’m a bit strapped on money right now, so I would prefer it if the gift was cheap.
Thanks!

i was thinking 500. but then im like wait, 250 for a two year old?? thats a bit steep. i was thinking about getting the 4 year old a video game system. but im thinking he may be too young for video games
i figured me and my fiancee could put our money together to buy the kids stuff. so this money is for toys and clothes. the good thing is kids clothes are so cheap.
