gifts for a family

[Denise S.]

At Christmas, I usually just buy for the children, but I wondered if anyone had any suggestions for a 'family' gift for them all. I can only think of one of those large tins of chocs, Quality St., Celebrations etc., but sounds a bit boring.

How about a 'family pass' to the cinema or theme park. Or if you don't want to spend so much, maybe a family dvd and some popcorn to make at home. Or maybe a game for all the family to play - always fun at Christmas time.

Id go for the family board game - can be good fun at xmas.

Yeah a board game or trip to Zoo (although that can be expensive). or tickets to a Panto? Very seasonal!

Definately like the idea of a family gift though!

Hi Denise,
What about having the Grand Children to your house for a christmas party, where they can help you put all your decorations up, switch on your christmas lights and write a christmas list for Santa.
For your own children, arrange for a nice meal somewhere, where they can enjoy a night out with each other while you have a great time with their children.
Perfect.
Also.....Santa also gives gifts to children who help with decorations.
Merry Christmas when it comes.

What about a chocolate fountain where they can all have fun together?
