  1. I love that you have a ream of paper listed for kids gifts. I try to suggest this to people when they ask for our daughters but no one takes me serious. Our kids love to use plain white paper and they use a ton of it. We had to set a limit on how many Christmas gifts my in-laws could buy the kids because they always went way overboard and it got to be too much. I love Christmas, but the gifts can just take it over.

  2. I love your list! Awesome stocking filler ideas too. I try and give age appropriate books to kids because they were such a huge part of my childhood and it seems they are a rare gift these days.
