either get the whole family something- or drop the adults, they will understand and get the kids something

Would help to know the sex of the kids with their ages. This is easy, I have way to many people to shop for every year. Spend 25 on each of the adults, give each a gift card, give him a home depot or Lowe's, her Victoria secret or something like that. Then the kids, board games are always nice. But if you go the day after thanksgiving you can get them a couple things each.

You sound just like me, you seem to be really concerned about you family and their feelings. You can but the 7 year old something really cheap and it'll still be a nice gift. Then you can get the adults something they both can use together. Like a pair of pjs and socks. It is winter time they'll be thankful. And for the 12 and 10 year old get them like a cd or a nice fashion shirt or even a board game that all the family can play after opening their gifts. Your family will be thankful just because your gifts came from the heart.
Good Luck on your decision!!!!!

Have a nice dinner, get the family to help, put on some music and sing along, make cookies and decorate them together. Make gifts for each other with things you already have or give 'coupons'-things you'd do for the other person. Some of the best holiday memories are of times with those you love, we soon forget the presents anyway. Have a great Christmas!

If you still want to include the adults, why don't you put together a family game night basket with games they can all play (which will not be too much money) and maybe add snacks or a gift card for a small amount to get their own soda/juice and snacks. The games will be something they can use often. If you don't want to do games, you can get a few family friendly DVDs and add the snacks. You are very thoughtful! Good luck!

Perhaps a board game for age 8 and up for the family to play and an one for the older kids & parents-youngest can join an older ones team. A 1 gallon can of nacho cheese sauce from costco-LOL Shirts for the kids-Movie vounchers for family to go out to the movie an eat popcorn etc. Educational games for the kids-non electronic.
Have fun and good luck!!!

family gift. buy 1 or 2 dvds that the whole family will enjoy(make sure they don't have them), buy a basket, and fill it with snacks and candy, and the 1 or 2 dvds.
my aunt and uncle did this for us, and it was awesome. my family is 2 adults, and kids ages 13, 16, and 19. the movie they got us was: What about Bob? it was hilarious. the basket had stuff like reeses, kit kats, popcorn, different kinds of those smoked cheese things, and crackers and stuff. it was awesome.
so, yeah. i recomend that

the other posters are crazy, 20$ each is more then enough to buy a present for each of the members in the family. Gifts don't have to be expensive to be great. In fact alot of the best gifts are things that are made, or time spent with someone. you could check around and see how much swimming or skating is in your area, and make a day out of it, or take everyone out for supper as a group. Or buy a bunch of food and cook them a great home made supper and desert.
Other wise if you'd rather buy a gift for each of them, just head out to the mall and go hunting.there are lots of great things under 20 dollars for all ages of people.

Well depending on your age. If you are legally old enough, make the adults a card with a gift certificate for one free night of babysitting, so they can go to dinner.
For the kids find out what their interests are, and see if you can make them something. You didn't put the sex of the kids. So it is kind of hard to tell you what do do. I mean there is a girl in there, get a few bottles of finger polish, most girls would love it. The boys are a little hard, but I am sure you can probably think of something.

That's plenty
Divide it between them and set a limit
Eg.$25 each adult
$20 for the 12 yearold and $15 each for the 7 and 10 year old
look cheap shops there are heaps to chose from

A good way to spend this would be in a catalog like Carol Wright Gifts (www.carolwrightgifts.com). There are very many nice things and they are not expensive. I have ordered things from this catalog and they are of good quality. You may even end up with change. You won't have to fight the crowds at the stores, you won't have to have someone take you shopping and hurry you along. Look this website up. I think you will like it. Good luck in your shopping.
