For stockings, we have always done treats, socks, lip balm, hand cream, practical items. The kids are now way into adulthood and we still do the same things! I also write a note for each telling them what i love about them and thanking them for being wonderful!
I love you really put a lot of thought into your childerns gifts I see so many parents going over broad after all were celebrating Christ birth which is the most important things to me.
I love this - I’m expecting my first and love seeing a measured, joy filled Christmas. Love that many of their gifts will enrich their faith, and foster their hobbies and life skills. My favorite had to be the “church purse” what a cutie 👛
Love all the sweet and thoughtful gifts you got for your children! Love the Bible gift most of all! Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family! Love your videos! May God bless you now and all year through!
Loved this video and your toy choices. So unique. We had the James Herriot treasury when our kids were growing up. They loved it. I read all his adult books myself. Wonderful classic. Val C 🙏🏻
I love how meaningful & intentional your gifts for your kiddos are I'm sure they going to love it.I have 2 kids & also do fewer gifts they appreciate it so much more.
What wonderful gifts! I know my 9 year old will love the prarie dress....she has a thrifted bonnet she has been enjoying. The wooden bowling set is adorable! As a Mom of 4 teens and 4 young children, I think this is something that can be enjoyed by everyone. Thanks for sharing!
For stockings we definitely do treats as well as the little oranges in the toe of the stocking. I like to do things like Bible highlighters since I always get him a new devotional as one of his gifts. My son turns 11 a few days before Christmas & he's always asking me to time him on how fast he can do things 😂 so I'm also putting an old fashioned stop watch in there. He enjoys having a really nice pen that writes well so I like to get one themed with whatever he's currently into. A few years ago when he was younger I put a giant magnifying glass in his stocking and oh man he had a blast with it out in the garden!
You are so very elegant as women and mama. I love all of your ideas for Christmas. We have kids the same age. One of my kids had a procedure and is up from anesthesia. Together we watched your video twice. :) My little one with me right now is 7 as well. So this gave great ideas for him. He even smiled when you talked about the cooking kit. Thanks for sharing. -Cassie 🤍
I came on here for a few stocking ideas. I also got that cookbook for my 11 year old daughter! Can't wait for her to open it. Also I saw those jammies on Allie beth stuckeys channel. I will try those next year!
What a lovely video. I so enjoyed seeing the gifts and was thrilled by the fact that Bibles were part of it all. It is so encouraging to see that some parents are not neglecting the most important things in life. Trust you all have a glorious Christmas.
I sew a lot they told you to size up due to being cotton. Cotton will shrink considerably. Bamboo is the best doesn’t shrink after washing and gets softer each wash.
Wonderful gifts Steph and so well thought out. Just think, next Christmas you will have another child to buy for! What a blessing. Enjoy the holidays and try to get some rest.
The sewing kit/machine is such a wonderful idea! Even though I am done with my shopping, I am putting it in my list of ideas for next year. Thank you! ❤
Sure! I added the link to my description box 😊 unfortunately it looks like it’s sold out, but hopefully you can find something similar in their collection!
So many great ideas!! My son turns 2 on Christmas Day. I'm excited to give him a stainless steel kid's cookware set because he's always stealing my kettles to "cook" 😂 also some new wooden food toys and magnatiles
Love the ideas behind the gifts you chose. Nowdays most gifts are clutter. And it's often really hard to get family members on board with our intentional gift choices.
Hi, How's it going? How are things with you? I hope you're happy on this day, I hope your family is doing well and I hope your day is going well. Wow, Your house is really nice, Those Christmas decorations are really beautiful and I love the place where you live. 0:42 Wow, That sweater looks great on you. Your kids are adorable and They're so cute. Thank you very much for this video, I really appreciate it. Greetings from Lima, Peru. 🦙🇵🇪🦙🇵🇪🎅🌲☃️🎅🌲☃️🏘️🏘️👏👏👏🙂👍
As a seasoned cook of 60 yrs. American Test kitchen will be a very detailed and difficult book for her to learn from. Even I would not try to cook from that cookbook. I say this to hope you find a beginner cookbook for her
Wow you did an amazing job picking up good gifts for your Children,would you be able to send me a close up photo of the table game you bought?love watching your videos
My daughter asked for a violin and I’m so excited to see her open this one! She got a sewing machine for her birthday and she loves her sewing kit more 😂
This has been the best video thus far for "What I got my children for Christmas." It is all life skills and not clutter or electronics. Bibles are even given as presents. Christ is left out of his own birthday. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your video and keeping the true meaning of Christmas.
Hi! Beautiful video🩷, my husband and I want to immigrate to America and now we are deciding which state to live in. We want to live in a place like you where we can do farming and full of green land and I can be a homemaker there... what cities and states do you suggest that are balanced in cost and have a traditional and rustic life? I really appreciate your answer💕
Love the John Deere book!! I'm bookmarking that for my oldest. Couple of my favorite gifts I'm giving my 4yr and 2yr: - a tin John Deere bank - wooden train track bridges - hobby horses - toys off our local buy nothing group! A hot wheels loop-de-loop for the oldest and Play-Doh vehicles for the youngest 🤍
Nice! I have an almost 7 year old, a 5 year old and an almost 2 year old! Im jewish so im doing chanukah gifts and as you can see a few birthdays are coming up so sale time is good for buying those... love minimalist gift guides as an aspiring minimalist. Thanks for making this video!
I kept reading that college educated white women apparently propped him up. I’m from the UK and this shocked me. After watching a few of these videos, I get it..
For stockings, we have always done treats, socks, lip balm, hand cream, practical items. The kids are now way into adulthood and we still do the same things! I also write a note for each telling them what i love about them and thanking them for being wonderful!
That's so beautiful 🥰
That’s so cute 😊
Love that ❤
Warms my heart as you show bibles and know how the children will enjoy and grow into them. Great parenting!
Thank you for your encouraging words 🫶
❤❤❤
I have my grandmother’s sewing box. She passed in 1995, I cherish that so much and go through it more times than I can count ❤
We had the James Herriot book and my children LOVED IT!
I love you really put a lot of thought into your childerns gifts I see so many parents going over broad after all were celebrating Christ birth which is the most important things to me.

Sometime you could share how you use the serum for eyelashes and how you do your nails?
I love how meaningful & intentional your gifts for your kiddos are I'm sure they going to love it.I have 2 kids & also do fewer gifts they appreciate it so much more.

Those baking kits are so darn cute!!! I love the thought and intentionality in the gift choices you chose. Well done Mama! ❤
Great presents! Can you also do a video about what you got your husband, I need ideas! ❤
My eldest son has that cookbook from a few years ago and he still uses it.

Your gifts are so intentional, functional, and super fun looking!
Thank you!

Aww, that’s so sweet!
I hope he recovers quickly 🫶🏼
Very good ideas. Not busy things but things that will keep them learning. Keep up the traditions. Good stocking ideas
Love your gifts !!!!! All the treasures will be in their lives forever..and those are the gifts of love and dedication 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you 🥰
Love the idea of slippers in the stockings!
We also added little food things-like mug cake, popcorn, special marshmallows, or similar things.
Love the Bible’s we got our 4 kids new bibles too this year ❤
Love that baking set… my girl is begging for one, will have to keep it in mind of her birthday.
It’s a good one 😉 so excited to see the girls’ faces when they open them!
Never heard of the James Herriot series. I am definitely checking into that!!
Love all their gifts. They are so precious and so thoughtful. Hope y’all have a very Merry Christmas ❤
Thank you, Jody! Merry Christmas ❤

Yay! I hope she enjoys the cookbook!
The James Herriot Treasury is simply wonderful. My kids have been listening to the beautiful audio version to help them fall asleep for years ❤
That's such a fun idea 🥰
Great gift ideas! You are glowing right now with your pregnancy ✨
You are so kind 🫶🏼 thank you, Shawna!
What a lovely video. I so enjoyed seeing the gifts and was thrilled by the fact that Bibles were part of it all. It is so encouraging to see that some parents are not neglecting the most important things in life. Trust you all have a glorious Christmas.
Thank you! Merry Christmas 🫶🏼
I think I need to get myself the cook book and start learning the basics 😂
lol
I sew a lot they told you to size up due to being cotton. Cotton will shrink considerably. Bamboo is the best doesn’t shrink after washing and gets softer each wash.
I loved this video. You got beautiful gifts!! Great ideas
Thank you 🫶🏼
Wonderful gifts Steph and so well thought out. Just think, next Christmas you will have another child to buy for! What a blessing. Enjoy the holidays and try to get some rest.
So excited to welcome another sweet baby 🫶
The sewing kit/machine is such a wonderful idea! Even though I am done with my shopping, I am putting it in my list of ideas for next year. Thank you! ❤
Yay, I hope it helps 😊
Loved that! My oldest daughter is 5 but as someone who loves to sew, it made me excited for when I'll teach her to sew as well!
Always wonderful seeing you Many Blessings and a Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas!

Electronics will be necessary for high school and college. Silly
They will need electronics to do a job one day or go to college.
👵💜 thank you for sharing with us.
Amazing gifts!!!!!!!
Thank you ❤

I’m impressed that you’ve finished shopping! I did my kids stockings like what I received, fruit, nuts, candy, etc. ❤
That's such a fun idea 🥰

I'm excited to give makedo tools and a sit on digger to the most boy of a boy I know (my son)
Such great gifts, We LOVE James Harriot Treasury. I had no idea there was a series to watch! I hate little useless stocking stuffers as well.
It’s not about you it’s about the children.
Lol thanks to u my kid getting more thing it all ur doing lol
💖💖💖💖💖🤗🤗🤗❤️
Hi This Golden Hour Listen To Music In Your Car And Talk With The Music On
Be careful those tin sets rust
All look so expensive but durable for them an you, could c thrir own kids using THEM😊❤❤❤❤
Definitely not minimalistic, but very cute! Love all the gifts.
She got them each three presents, what would you consider minimal?!
Bet you voted for Trump 🙄
Bet she didn’t
So what if she did ? Cry about 😂
I kept reading that college educated white women apparently propped him up. I’m from the UK and this shocked me. After watching a few of these videos, I get it..
Amazing gifts. Love the Bibles. These are by far my favorite videos to watch. I finally made one of my own this year @uniquelyyou
Great ideas! We too love James Herriot. You might also enjoy Katie Morag stories
Thanks for the recommendation 🫶🏼
