Even though we cannot afford it, I do believe that Christmas is for giving. I also believe in putting something small under the tree, so that I know I have contributed to a smile on Christmas Day. Any suggestions for a 15 year old boy, and 16 year old girl. Please my niece who is 38 years old, and the most beautiful person we know. Thank you so much.

Hey Kevon!
Buy a very small pair of Marble Doves like that in "Home Alone 2" and give to your dear ones.

Anything from the heart. Make a personal CD with a collection of songs that tells them they are special, or make a treat like cookies or something. Leave a very nice card with a meaningful poem. Just anything from the heart. It really is the thought that counts. Most people understand financial situations and won't be hurt. Re-gifting is OK in times like this too. Do you have an extra something you don't really use anymore? I'm giving away my laptop to my son although it's used, it's still in good shape, not too old, but kinda out of date. He 16, but he's gonna love it, and it really won't cost me anything. Be creative, and let love me your motive.

Gifts from the heart are the best. How about a certificate for a movie & pizza with you for the teens? It's quality time with them - you could either go to the matinee for cheaper prices, or rent a movie and make pizza at home with them. Or if you have some extra photos, you could maybe make them a small scrapbook and include some poems or song lyrics they might like, and some thoughts about how special they are to you.

Well, for the 16 yr old girl maybe a small purse at walmart or like those chapsticks that smell like candy. For the boy a sweater is nice or comfy pjs boys like to sleep alot. And for the 38 yr old hmmm.....nice jelrewy are perfume. Cards with either $$$ or giftcards are good too(Like 5 buks or something and the giftcards can be $5 to like anywhere: taco bell, etc. you name it!!). Happy Holidays!!

Consider giving things not purchasable. Like hand-made gift certificates for a ride to the mall (or whatever the favorite hang out is). Maybe a day out just for the two of you? A get out of chore free card? We dont' have a lot of money either and they have appreciated these in the past

Christmas is not about giving gifts is about celebrating the birth of Christ (if you are Catholic) is the time to spend with your family and to give thanks for all the many good things in life..... Nowadays we have lost track of the meaning of christmas thinking on just how many gifts to buy , for whom to buy and how much u are spending.
