I'm fairly certain it's illegal to GIVE children as gifts.

You have a list of several organizations that will help you give your children Christmas. I give a little to a few every year, but I have a hard time sometimes. Christmas comes on thee 25th of December every year. It has for the past 2000 years. You know it's coming and you need to plan for it all year. Saving even $20 a week would give you a little over a $1000 to spend on Christmas.

if these are not your children, you don't need to buy much since their parents will be getting their main gifts.

I have neices and nephews I buy gifts for but my son is the one I buy the main kid items for.
For other people's children I look for something sweet and yet inexpensive -
I'll give them something like a movie ticket with a large candy bar
or a couple of books
or a shirt or outfit I found on a clearance rack (they like pajamas)

If you just figure out how much money you have to spend on the kids, you can divide the total up between the six and you'll have your price range.

If these are your own children and your having trouble with Christmas gifts you might need to call your local churches and talk to them about helping you out.

If you mean that ur tight on money then it might help if you try to explain to atleast the older children that you cant afford to get them something really expensive. For the younger children or if they're all small try to get them something inexpensive although small children tend to be more spoiled and less understanding. Sorry if that didn't help any.

If money is the issue, try the Marines Toys for Tots program or check with the churches in your area. (they helped my friend and her family last year).

Also, don't be ashamed to go into Big Lots or even the 99cents stores and fill a basket for each child.

If possible, let them help you shop for their siblings...

Good Luck and praying your Christmas IS merry.... :-)

No thanks, mine is 32 yrs old and it was hard to do it with one.
Make it a Christmas to remember.
My cousin would make a cake and they sang happy birthday to Jesus. Just a thought.
Make things together, kids want more than gifts they want time.
Make cookies and fudge
String constuction paper in rings together

If you have the space you might consider one of those new type trampolines which have a boundary all the way around them and it springs back so you cant fall off. Id love one of those and I'm old!!!!!!
