Christmas Presents for Daycare Children

[Baby Beluga]

This thread is from 2009, but it is time to start Christmas shopping for the daycare at my house.

I usually spend about $35 per child, often more with party treats, decorations, craft supplies and seasonal classroom toys.

I often give out craft kits, art supply kits, book and stuffy sets, pajama and book sets, play dough sets, play tents, sleeping bags or wooden toys sets as child gifts.

Childhood IS the only time Christmas is magic. I enjoy my holidays through giving to them and my family. I would not want children to be aware of adult struggles at all during Christmas, we have twelve months to prepare for one magic morning per year.

I also have the kids make something for their parents as giving a gift is just as exciting as getting one for children.

Yep - here too. Especially with the uncertainty of covid and society concerns....
Kids have been through enough this year, I don't want Christmas to be different too.

I buy a book for each kid in my class. Our director buys a game or something small for each of the kids to get during the party from "santa" who comes every year. And of course we line the kids up and take there picture on a nice photo background (there actually pretty cheap on amazon) then makes a photo frame craft.
