'More than three, and their eyes start glazing over.'
At least when it comes to gift buying for our little ones, every mom I know is already stocking up on the— the latest L.O.L. Surprise! release, the newest Hatchimals, Fingerlings Hugs — even sending texts to each other when they happen upon a new shipment at a local big-box store that was previously sold out of whatever ridiculously priced plaything we're all trying to score.
It's easy to get caught up in the madness of the season: trying to find the hardest-to-get gifts, wanting to ensure that your children have the most magical, memorable Christmas while they still, hurrying from one event to the next, all in an effort to squeeze every ounce of joy out of the holidays. I need a vacation just thinking about it.
But there's one aspect that I'm determined to pare down this year, and I'd implore you to do the same. Buy fewer gifts for those special little darlings of yours. Three each, to be exact. Not only will this new, money, and a piece of your sanity, but most likely, your kids won't even notice.
More than three, and their eyes start glazing over . . . It becomes an unfulfilling game of quantity over quality.More than three, and their eyes start glazing over. They become present-opening machines, requesting the next one seconds after they've opened the last gift, which they haven't really even processed, let alone appreciated. It becomes an unfulfilling game of quantity over quality.
