Christmas Gift Ideas for Kids
Every Kid Should Have a Red Wagon! First item on my Christmas list is a
Radio Flyer Red Wagon for my nieces. Madiline (3) can pull Lizzy (1)
around for hours in this thing!

PLANNING FOR CHRISTMAS
THIS YEAR I WILL FINISH MY SHOPPING EARLY!!!!!!
Every year I end up racing around last minute doing my Christmas shopping, which makes Christmas more of a chore than a celebration. This year, I am going to start early and get it right. I will I will I will!!!!!!!
It seems that men have had this problem for a long time...according to this 1951 Ad by Embees of Charleston, Seven out of Ten Men wait until the last minute to do their Christmas Shopping! And then, if they follow Embees' advice, they come home with something called "OOmphies", for $2.96 (Free Gift Wrapping!) which are described as a darling little Slidealong Scuff in matching or contrasting colors. (One foot red one foot blue?) Hmmmm. Good Advice?
Well OK, so Slippers for Christmas....could be acceptable if used as the decoy gift for the little blue box from Tiffany's. I think I need to take a poll...Take Poll

 She
already has the regular Highlights Magazine, but it is a bit too old for
her. I got her this one too! (She can grow into the other issues!) |
|
| Lizzy (Niece Age 1+) |
 I
bought her older sister a Highlights subscription, which is a great thing
for kids because they absolutely love getting their own mail! Hidden picture
games are fun fun fun for kids. We called it "Who can find" when we were
kids! |

| Nancy (Sister #2) |
My sister wanted this - Philosophy Hope In A Tube Eye & Lip Firming Cream .5
oz. Not that she needs it (IMO), but she thinks she does so Hope in a Tube
it is. (She says it gets rid of lines around your eyes. I have not tried it,
so I couldn't say...although maybe that is why I think she doesn't need it?) |
