I've created the Free Christmas Shopping Planner Flip Book for Kids to help with all of the details of gift giving.
The kiddos fill out a page for each person they need to buy for. Whether they draw pictures or write in the boxes, the planner works well. Visual cues are given in each box, for those who don't read yet.
It's tradition in our family that I take each of the kiddos out Christmas shopping for everyone on their lists.
We go out to eat and have a delightful time together.
I look forward to these Christmas dates every year.
My favorite part is learning what each kiddo would like to give to others.
