Mon, 25 May 2009 03:21:53 +0000 http://smallnotebook.org/?p=1155#comment-6942 About a year ago, my son received a subscription to the preschool version of the Highlights magazine - HighFive. He absolutely LOVES it, and it's a gift that he receives all year! Then for Christmas, we asked for subscriptions to Cricket (a non-fiction magazine for preschoolers) and Babybug (a magazine for infants/toddlers). The kids enjoy getting mail with their names on it. <abbr><em><em>Julie W.´s last blog post..<a href="http://wiederstein.blogspot.com/2009/05/fruit-snacks-please.html" rel="nofollow">Fruit Snacks Please</a></em></abbr></em> About a year ago, my son received a subscription to the preschool version of the Highlights magazine – HighFive.

I bought concert tickets last Christmas for my kids and they had so much fun. I even got a "thank you" from my teenager. That is hard to do! lol! But, I didn't think of buying lessons. My daughter's bday is this weekend. And I think I am going to buy her a month's worth of lesson to a hip hop class. Thanks for that idea. :) <abbr><em><em>Money Funk´s last blog post..<a href="http://www.moneyfunk.net/2009/05/my-weekend.html" rel="nofollow">My Weekend...</a></em></abbr></em> Buying items that can result in wonderful experiences is a much more thoughtful gift than an item.

The gift was not only a gift certificate to a local bookstore, but the other boy and his Mom picked my son up and took him there as part of a special outing to spend his gift certificate. This mom will also give bowling gift certificates and pick up the child and take them bowling too. The kids love it and no plastic stuff to clutter up the house.
