We decided each year until he gets old enough we’re going to take him on a vacation for his birthday and then for Christmas he may get a few smaller gifts being his birthday is in the first week n a day of December it’s a bit easier for us to separate his gifts
Here for the comments ! My sons birthday is December 13
@Remi we are planning on starting the vacations for birthdays at his 3rd birthday. With his birthday being the 15th I know it’s going to get jumbled up with the different family Christmas’ that we attend.
@Karlene that’s a good idea! I was thinking one “larger” gift for his birthday and a few smallish gifts for Christmas. Do you have any stocking stuffer ideas? I’m at a loss because I grew up getting candy and small toys in my stocking which isn’t an option for him lol
To be honest I think they will still be too young to understand what's going on. For mine, we're just doing her birthday at a park and having regular Christmas. I don't like a lot of clutter so minimal gifts. Esp at this age, they can't do much yet.
Honestly a few gifts are best, especially if you have others getting them gifts. With my first she easily was overstimulated and with like 3 presents she was just done and wanted to play. With our now second close to the holidays, I think we will stick with a few gifts and just make a bigger deal about the traditions and festivities at least for now.
