    This was such a fun video! I think you really sort of highlighted how gifts don't need to be super expensive and flashy to be something kids will go nuts over! I am in my 30s with kids of my own, but I still remember my favorite gift ever from my childhood. I was really into fabrics (don't ask - I was a weird kid) and my mom went to Joann's and just bought me a yard of six different fun fabrics. I lost my mind. She spent $15 and to this day, I still talk about it. I feel like your kids are going to remember their Prime Christmas for years! Like you said, such a simple way to make a practical gift so much more fun!

    I love these gifts. To our family, those games would be expensive too and I think it is awesome you thought of other cool useful gifts for them. Not exactly along those same lines, but my little guy will be 7 by Christmas and he has Autism. He loves "nerdy" topics and he is currently in his own words doing a "deep dive" into the Periodic Table. So we got him a Periodic Table poster, an acrylic stand that has tidbits of all the non-radioactive elements, and a magnetic Periodic Table set I found at Target Dollar Spot in August or September. I know some kids would not want those, but you know your kiddos and I know mine and he will be ecstatic!! Merry Christmas this was so fun and I felt no judgement from you no matter how my family decides to do Christmas. I'll check out your other content as well especially since you are trying to pay for those two gaming systems :).

    I used to let my son drink Prime he was obsessed with it. Then I tasted it and I stopped buying it for him. It is jammed packed with sugar there’s no way that drink had 0 sugar. Nothing like Gatorade. FYI I did a Naruto ramen bowl for my son 2 years ago. I was going to do an Oculus because my sons is not working but decided not to. Just giving him the keyboard and mouse he wants for his gaming and new headphones for his Xbox

      @ClaireRisper  10 місяців тому +1

He’s still not getting one because I’m nervous about the risk to his eyesight and the strain on his neck. The headsets are not designed for children but I have friends with younger kids who have them and they don’t seem to suffer any ill effects 🤷🏻‍♀️. I don’t know.

And honestly I don’t think the kids do their eyes any favours by spending hours on a switch or a PlayStation either. Definitely one for the individual to weigh up and decide for themselves.
