Difficult to word briefly - basically each year for Christmas we go on holiday with three other families. We’ve always agreed that “Santa” only brings stocking presents and parents/family get all other presents, even though now only the little children still believe.
Usually I get DCs each one “big” (£40-£50, maybe a little more as they get older) present and maybe two or three books/other similar small gifts. Other families often do something similar, though mostly their gifts are slightly bigger, but that’s never really mattered before. However this year for DD12 and DD13 I’ve struggled to think of any “big” presents, so have just got quite a few smaller gifts (books/clothes/stationary - but most smaller things like stationary and makeup go in stockings).
I hadn’t even thought about comparisons but DH pointed out that this was quite different to what the other families usually do, and I’ve now asked the other parents who have all indeed got big presents (desk/guitar/phone). AIBU to just stick with what we’ve got or should we think of a “big” present? And if so, WHAT?!?? Because I honestly have no clue
