2 or 3 from parents. Lots of times there are plenty of gifts coming from all sorts of relatives. They really should be moderated as this is prime time for children to come to expect large amounts of gifts. (Hence: spoiled.)
Children can never become spoiled with too much love, but they certainly can with heaps of material goods.

Not too many. They'll overload and not be able to appreciate their gifts if there are too many. One or two toys/games from Mom and Dad and one or two gifts from grandparents. One gift from any aunts/uncles. Help siblings to make gifts for each other, or give them a small amount of money and take them shopping to choose a gift for their siblings. (Teaching kids how to notice what other people like and choose gifts accordingly is an important skill!) Help the siblings to work together to make/buy a present for parents, too. (Cooperation is also an important skill!)
It's nice to spread out the gifts.. Perhaps open one or two gifts on Christmas Eve. That way the kids don't get overloaded. And try not to make so much busy-ness around the dinner preparation, etc. After gifts are unwrapped, it's nice to spend some time playing with one or two of the gifts together. In our family, each year I bought a game or a puzzle for the whole family to do together. My kids (all grown up now) remember those family game sessions fondly.
Happy Holidays!

I see that you want to get several gifts for this Christmas person (Christmas is such an unusual name for someone). But I don't think that a 4-year old should be forced to buy gifts for someone. If the 4-year old wants to, they can draw a picture or glue macaroni to construction paper. I'm sure that Christmas would appreciate this. I think that a 4-year old should make one thoughtful gift for Christmas.

Well you are asking the wrong person because Im a mother of 6 and grandmother of 14 and great grandmother of 2 so there are so many things out there now that are so unexpensive for little ones , to teach them A B C s numbers so I get nutty at Christmas time , for little ones but what scares me is the things out there for the big ones and the prices . So have fun with the little one because later on as they get bigger so does the prices . Good Luck

Depends on the cost and quality of gifts.
A good average is 10 - 15 This is including a few outfits. Just toys around 8 - 10

No more than 3. They don't have much attention span at that age so it doesn't make a lot of sense to give them a mound of presents they will care less about in a couple of hours.

1 from each relative or family ^^,
but my guess 1 special gifts from the parents and the rest would depend on the relatives ^^,
