Love this video!!! I always like doing the one thing to read, want, need, etc. But I never know what to do for wear! So we just limit the number of presents but I like your categories!!
Great gifts. I'm sure the kids will have a great Christmas. We have a marble run too. But it isn't glow in the dark. That is cool. My 3 yr olds and my 5 yr old love it.
Great to see your gift choices. Bella will love the James Herriot books. I read them when I was a child too. A true classic for animal lovers. They made it into a tv series here too. Thanks for sharing.
Love all your content! We are doing All creation waits and Unwrapping the Greatest Gift and loving them thanks to your recommendation! New homeschoolers this year and your channel has blessed our life in many ways!
I love how thoughtful all of your gifts are for each child. Pairing down on the number of gifts seems like such a good way to be intentional about what you give. And I love how excited you are about your kids' gifts!
I look forward to this video each year! The dough boxes are so cool! I think all my kids would love it ages 2-9. My 6 year old wants that Barbie Reveal thing so badly! Love all the family games! -Megan
My 2 babies are 2 and 4...I immediately had to go order Bug Bingo and Dog Bingo. I think they will love it and it sounds like it will be easy to play together even at their young ages. ♥️
We went with a more intentional gift giving this year as well. Santa gift, something you want, something you need, something to wear, something to read, and something to make/build. So exciting and make us think things through a little bit more instead of just buying this and that and before you know it you have a living room full of gifts and half of them hardly even get played with. I truly enjoy your videos! Thank you for having such a sweet and giving heart! 🥰
I've been wanting to try these kits! I make my own playdoh sensory bins and sensory bins BUT with a newborn and 3 other kids itd be nice to skip a month. We do the wear, need, want, read, and asibling gift. Santa gives only stockings and family gifts.
This bingo games look so fun! We’re don’t Christmas shopping, but we do family game night every Sunday night too and we need more games to span the gaps of our kids (9, newly 6, newly 3, and due this spring).
We do the 4 categories also. Sometimes a category will have multiple items if it goes together kinda thing. But for the wear I’ll do hoodies. Pjs and slippers or this year I’m getting them a couple jogger sets. Doing the 4 categories and of course Santa gift has really forced me to scale back in the best way ever lol. And it really made me sit down and truly think about what to get them for Christmas instead of just throwing random stuff in my cart.
I am trying to be very intentional with the gifts we purchase this year for our girls. Tried to stick to the same something they want, need, wear, read. I did add in something to make and for the first time I am doing a family gift. I’m super excited to see how they like it!
Would you or have you done a video on your music corner? If not would you tour it and talk about how you have taught all the instruments? My daughter is 7 and wants to play the violin but I have no clue where to start especially with covid and everything being canceled right now! Love your channel and all the peacefulness of it! Merry Christmas
I love that you do a STEAM section! I try my best to always gift educational toys unless it is something the child has asked for by name. Looking forward to next weeks video!
We do the 4 gifts too but I really like how you changed it up and did something STEAM!! I may have to implement that 😊 You are so full of awesome ideas! That’s why I love your channel SO, SO much!! 💕
My kids would love the play dough kits. I just seen they had a super cute nativity kit that's sold out. Loved your kids choices! My kids are into paw patrol and pj masks this year. LOL
Love these ideas!! My son wanted a keyboard and my 4 year old also wants literally everything she sees. But her main gift is a Tots Headquarters playset thing. I also went a little book crazy on my kids this year, so they will be getting lots of books! I got the nocturnal book set you recommended for my 7 year old.
Love the "want, need, STEAM, read" ❤❤❤ Unfortunately doing last minute Christmas shopping 😬 so I may adjust and swap one for STEAM also 😁👍 Yeah, I'm out of the loop also when it comes to whats popular, lol. My kids make a list then I pick the want, need, wear, read, and educational from that 😂
I love how much your kids LOVE to read! Very inspiring and I hope my daughter loves to read like that! i love the young, wild, and Freidman sensory boxes! My daughter is sitting next to me and she seen them and immediately wanted one! She's 5 so I am going to go check them out! Thank you for sharing!
We switched to the 4 gift rule last year and love it! I really like your twist on it! I love the dough kits, I’m looking into them now for my 4 year old. She’s HUGE into anything sensory, her playdoh collection is crazy lol
ohh my goodness plinko!! I totally watched that when I was home sick. I loved the Price is Right! You found some fun games! We are trying to play a game each night that we are home during advent this year and we are having so much fun!
That's a great idea to have grandparents do a joint gift for the family! My mom has close to 20 grandchildren that she buys Christmas presents for so I'm sure she would welcome this idea!
So love your videos! I can totally relate to the 3 year old wanting everything. My 3 year old girlie has successfully circled everything in the Amazon, Target, and Walmart mailers multiple times in different colors. I finally had to hide them from her because the poor pages couldn't take any more! I didn't dare show her the rainbow resource christmas book!
Love the idea of having family pitch in towards a bigger family gift! Although we have a big family, no one gifts anyone. Looks like you put some thought and love behind each gift and thanks for the ideas
You have so many great ideas!! I especially appreciate how you are sooo organized in your gift giving! I have 11 children and after last Christmas I was really trying to figure out a way to downsize on the amount of toys and other stuff we all get at this time of year! We originally decided to do just 1 really wanted gift for Christmas and then a Family Vacation! Unfortunately, it was supposed to be a cruise!☹️ So back to square one! I am really thinking of using your 4 gifts idea!! That would really cut the amounts down! Looking forward to your Stocking Gifts video next!!🤗
Love these videos ! I always get my kids a logic game each for christmas , and family games . Now I want to do secret sibling with my kids . Thanks for all the great ideas .
I love watching these every year to get ideas of gift that are fun and educational and not just toys they play with for two days and forget. Thank you for making these videos.
My son, 6, is getting legos, an action camera (like a go pro but much cheaper). My daughter,2, is Frozen obsessed and getting Anna and Elsa dolls and playset. Ny kids also get costumes every year for our dress up corner.
Love your videos! I get so excited when a new video is uploaded! Love seeing this gift video each year, it gives me great ideas. Thank you for being you and inspiring our homeschooling :)
I just love how you "categorize" your gifts--it simplifies things so much! And the family trip as a gift is SUCH a fun idea! It's too late for me this year, but I'm definitely stealing some of these ideas for next year.
I decided to pick up a few things on Amazon's black Friday. Educational toys that I've been putting off getting. But other than that, we decided not to get much this year because they always get spoiled by grandparents more than I would like (I love how you coordinate with the grandparents and I may try to see if I can encourage something similar).
The big ticket item I got my 10 yr old son this year was the Super Mario Maker 2 game for his switch. He wants to be a video game designer when he grows up so all the design your own level or game type things are his favorite amd spark his creativity more than most other games
I love that you do family gifts as well . My kiddos love okay dough kits ( even catch my 11 year old playing along sometimes ) so I'd be thrilled to win !
My almost 10 year old adores animals. All the animals!! I wonder if these books would be on her reading level. They appear geared a little above her current level. Perhaps we should try one first. Thanks for sharing all your ideas again!
That idea for the grandparents going in on a big gift together instead of LOTS of gifts is SO great! I might have to check out that James Herriot book set. I bought my daughter the Narnia series this year for Christmas but her bday is 1 month after Christmas. This was a great video!
My 9 year old loves nerf right now too. I scored a few good ones on a Black Friday deal. Thanks for the STEAM gift ideas! I’m definitely picking up the laser maze now.
My 2.5 year old is a SPEED DEMON on her plasma car!! She loves it because she can go so much faster than her siblings 😂😂😂. She terrifies me but, she is the cutest thing on it lol
My 8 year old son is getting a Nerf gun with glow in the dark bullets, magnatiles to add to a set he got last year, a handmade wooden piggy bank with 4 slots engraved "Save Tithe Give Spend", and an Adidas sweatshirt he's been wanting for a few months. From his Aunt & Uncle he's getting a book of the best photography of WW2 planes (one of his obsessions) & then lots of fun stuff in his stocking. I always go all out for his stocking so I can't wait for your stocking video! He's been loving the Wally McDoogle books (a Christian book series from the 90's) so he's getting the next one in that series & a magnifying glass. He's going to geek out over that 😆. Of course some candy, a mini version of the game simon & a gemstone dig kit from "Santa" even though he knows he's not real. We still pretend 😉
I love your Christmas series ever year. I think we need those lego bags, but the price, gah! I already finished my shopping, so it may have to wait for birthdays or next year. My oldest is 14 and stopped wanting toys probably 3 years ago. Now he has a hard time thinking of things to ask for, oddly sad for this mom :(
I have a 1 year old and a 2 year old !!!! I loved these ideas and I think the creative women owned box is an amazing idea!!! I hope I win one but im also going to be checking those out for my kids!!! ❤
I can’t tell you how many times I had to pause this video because my kiddo kept coming in “whatcha watching mom??” 🤣🤣
"We are in 2020 level 12" 🤣 you are great. I love your videos! Thanks for sharing 💛🧡
Yep level 12 we are all hoping there is no level 13 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
I'm loving the ideas. I have something they need, something they want and something to wear. Didn't thought about the STEAM part... Might add one.
I also have the something to read part.
That space kit is so cool! My 3 yr old would go crazy over it
Love the idea about the big group gift. My MIL always wants to buy them a ton of toys.
Love this video!!! I always like doing the one thing to read, want, need, etc. But I never know what to do for wear! So we just limit the number of presents but I like your categories!!
Those dough kits look amazing! I will have to try this for my daughter she loves dough.
Great gifts. I'm sure the kids will have a great Christmas. We have a marble run too. But it isn't glow in the dark. That is cool. My 3 yr olds and my 5 yr old love it.
Great to see your gift choices. Bella will love the James Herriot books. I read them when I was a child too. A true classic for animal lovers. They made it into a tv series here too. Thanks for sharing.

Oh man these give aways are amazing Abby! Thanks for introducing us to these amazing companies and women! Always love your gift ideas!
And the gift I'm most excited about giving is a bow and arrow set from Treasures From Jennifer to my 5 year old boy. He is going to freak out 😁
My 2 babies are 2 and 4...I immediately had to go order Bug Bingo and Dog Bingo. I think they will love it and it sounds like it will be easy to play together even at their young ages. ♥️

Level 12 of 2020. I feel that deep in my soul! 😂😂😂😂
Thoughtful gifts are soooo much better than ALL. THE. THINGS!!
We do the 4 gifts too but I really like how you changed it up and did something STEAM!! I may have to implement that 😊 You are so full of awesome ideas! That’s why I love your channel SO, SO much!! 💕

Can you do a review on the Lego storage bag, or tell me you thoughts. I can't find any videos about it on UA-cam.
Your game recommendations are so helpful! They always end up being a hit ❤️
Love the "want, need, STEAM, read" ❤❤❤ Unfortunately doing last minute Christmas shopping 😬 so I may adjust and swap one for STEAM also 😁👍 Yeah, I'm out of the loop also when it comes to whats popular, lol. My kids make a list then I pick the want, need, wear, read, and educational from that 😂

great gift ideas. and love the dough kits. just ordered one for my grandson. love the idea of family game gifts.
Wonderful ideas, practical and fun gifts. Thanks for sharing great ideas!
I love the balance in this planning! So intentional and restful
I like your STEAM category. I was also going to try the want, need, wear, read and I couldn't think of anything for the kids for the wear category.
We switched to the 4 gift rule last year and love it! I really like your twist on it! I love the dough kits, I’m looking into them now for my 4 year old. She’s HUGE into anything sensory, her playdoh collection is crazy lol
ohh my goodness plinko!! I totally watched that when I was home sick. I loved the Price is Right! You found some fun games! We are trying to play a game each night that we are home during advent this year and we are having so much fun!
Love watching your videos! Now, I have look for that Plinko game! I loved The Price is Right as well! 🤣
Girl, every sick day for me as a teen too! Price is right and little house on the prarie! haha. PLINKO is the best! I will have to find!
That's a great idea to have grandparents do a joint gift for the family! My mom has close to 20 grandchildren that she buys Christmas presents for so I'm sure she would welcome this idea!
I love your Christmas videos! A space kit would be awesome for my 6 year old and older kids too since were studying astronomy this year! Very cool!
I love the idea of doing board games as a together gift to build family community! I can totally make that work this year. Thanks for the great idea!
So love your videos! I can totally relate to the 3 year old wanting everything. My 3 year old girlie has successfully circled everything in the Amazon, Target, and Walmart mailers multiple times in different colors. I finally had to hide them from her because the poor pages couldn't take any more! I didn't dare show her the rainbow resource christmas book!
Love seeing your STEAM and game ideas. My kids range from 3 to 12 and bringing those gaps isn't always easy.
Ok I am sold on the bingo games! haha! I loved seeing what all you got for them!
Love your videos and “2020 level 12”! 🤣 thanks for a great giveaway!
Aka OurIncDashFam since I apparently can’t keep my username straight 🤪 I blame 2020
Love the idea of having family pitch in towards a bigger family gift! Although we have a big family, no one gifts anyone. Looks like you put some thought and love behind each gift and thanks for the ideas
Love all the gifts you got for your kids ❤️ Especially the “family time” concept of experience gift 🎁
My kids love sensory and play doh toys! Thanks for doing these giveaways!!
You have so many great ideas!! I especially appreciate how you are sooo organized in your gift giving! I have 11 children and after last Christmas I was really trying to figure out a way to downsize on the amount of toys and other stuff we all get at this time of year!

I bought a plasma car for my son last year. He loves it! It works best on smooth surfaces...😁
Love the ideas of these sensory bins! I am pediatric occupational therapy assistant and this would be perfect for my kiddos! 💜
Yay! I love your haul & gift videos!😍🤩
Love these videos ! I always get my kids a logic game each for christmas , and family games . Now I want to do secret sibling with my kids . Thanks for all the great ideas .
Love the gifts!!! I need to get the book set for James Harriet
We are done shopping this year, but I love all of these ideas.. definitely saving them for the future!
I purchased Bird Bingo which we opened yesterday. We love it. So much fun. Love the memories we are creating. Thank you for the game suggestion.
I love watching these every year to get ideas of gift that are fun and educational and not just toys they play with for two days and forget. Thank you for making these videos.

Love the play dough kits. Kids each picked one out today that they would like to have.
I am still shopping for all of my kids, I love your gift guides for such great ideas!
I love your gift ideas! I needed some ideas for my 4 year old and she also wants "everything" she sees!
These are my favorite videos of the whole year! Well besides homeschool curriculum videos! :)
I always LOVE your gift videos, they give me so many ideas for my kids!
I decided to pick up a few things on Amazon's black Friday. Educational toys that I've been putting off getting. But other than that, we decided not to get much this year because they always get spoiled by grandparents more than I would like (I love how you coordinate with the grandparents and I may try to see if I can encourage something similar).
I have been eyeing those dough kits since I learned about them from you! Great ideas! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing! We try to limit the number of gift for our kids as well. We are focus on steam gifts too.
The big ticket item I got my 10 yr old son this year was the Super Mario Maker 2 game for his switch. He wants to be a video game designer when he grows up so all the design your own level or game type things are his favorite amd spark his creativity more than most other games
We do this as well with our children. Keeping our focus on what’s most important.
I started ordering the dough kits because of your recommendation and my kids loveeeee it. We would adore the space one.
I have been checking out those dough kits, my youngest has delays and sensory play is a key part of her therapy!
So fun to watch, and those kits are very cool!
I have been trying to decide if we should get the dough kits, they look amazing! I have 4 kiddos so that’s a big chunk of change :)
The four gift rule with one big gift has been a huge blessing to our family too! Thank you for sharing!
Great ideas , especially for my 4 year old girl. It’s always a struggle to get fun but useful gifts for kids.
I love that you do family gifts as well . My kiddos love okay dough kits ( even catch my 11 year old playing along sometimes ) so I'd be thrilled to win !
I love the family big gift idea so fun! My 6 year old really loves science and wants a robot he can build for Christmas.
We have an love that bird bingo game! We really want the ocean one!
And that LEGO bag is genius!
Those kits look so fun! My kiddos would for sure love the space one. ❤
We do the 4 gifts for Christmas too. I like switching something you wear for something STEM. I will have to switch mine up too!
My almost 10 year old adores animals. All the animals!!
I wonder if these books would be on her reading level. They appear geared a little above her current level. Perhaps we should try one first.
Thanks for sharing all your ideas again!
That idea for the grandparents going in on a big gift together instead of LOTS of gifts is SO great! I might have to check out that James Herriot book set. I bought my daughter the Narnia series this year for Christmas but her bday is 1 month after Christmas. This was a great video!

Love seeing new and different ideas for Christmas for kids! Thanks for sharing!!
I’ve been eyeing play doh kits like this on Etsy! I’m loving the gift ideas! Also, level 12 of 2020 hopefully will be the best yet! Lol 😂
We started the dough kit subscription recently and we have been loving it... The 7 year old to the teens!
You’re so creative and mindful with your gift giving!!
I really need to get a marble run they look so fun!
My 2.5 year old is a SPEED DEMON on her plasma car!! She loves it because she can go so much faster than her siblings 😂😂😂. She terrifies me but, she is the cutest thing on it lol

We have been trying to stay more simple with gifts. Family gifts a great idea. Will have to add a steam toy option.
You always put so much thought into what you give your kids!
