- Good morning, friends! Today I'm excited to share what we got our kids for Christmas this year! I shared their stocking stuffers last week, and today I'm showing their tree gifts. We are very intentional with what we give our kids, and keep it (kind of?) minimal. I will link what I can down below here if you want to check those items out.

You give such nice, thoughtful gifts for your children. It's a joy to see how your family celebrates Christmas, Julie. Everything is meaningful.
Agree!❣️💯❣️
Thank you! ❤️
Same exact thing I did with my older kids about “sizing up” toys. With my older one, I realize they really don’t outgrow stuff so much. They play with things much longer than I thought they would.
Looove how the gifts are meaningful!🎄💯🎄 Thanks for sharing Sweetie!❣️
Love it, Julie! All gifts that will keep on giving!
I hope so!! Thanks 😊
I love your perspective on gift buying and we do the same. I'm definitely the mom who gets books as gifts too lol! Especially as homeschoolers❤
Right? Books are an awesome gift 😁
Those are some wonderful gifts! I can't wait to hear your childrens reactions.
I love how much thought you put in to everything.
Great choices!! I'm sure the kids will love them!!
I think so!! Thanks 😊
Excellent choices and very intentional with love behind each one.
Less is more. We also go for quality, mostly with the no more than 3 approach (something the want, something they need, something to read). Helps not to loose focus why we are celebrating Christmas as well.
Love your thoughtfulness. The kids will love their gifts 💗
No more than three is a good guideline! Not losing focus, yes!! 👏🏻
another great video Julie!
Aww love it! 🙌🏻🥰
My daughter had that exact same dress! She wore it ALL the time. She is 19 now but I will never forget that dress!
Oh that is so special! I love it ❤️
GREAT Christmas gifts🎄
Oh I love the Belle dress, that was so nice and perfect!
I love watching your gift videos every year! I’ve been wanting to do a Lego Christmas for our kids too, one year soon! Watching and filming Christmas gift videos is something I look forward to every year, the last of our gifts arrive tomorrow and I can’t wait to film!
That’s so exciting! Filming and sharing on CZcams does keep me from procrastinating on gift buying! 😂
@@mamatofive1 yes definitely! I used to feel ahead of the game if I was done by Dec 1, and now I feel behind if it’s Dec and I’m not finished 😆
Nice gifts. Merry Christmas blessings
Please tell me that you wash all the new clothes before wearing them? 🙈
I could not even tell you how many times my youngest two have requested A Story about Ping. They love it!
Oh I’m so glad to hear that!! I’m excited to read it 😀
We got the garbage truck for a birthday
So fun! 😀
We run into the issue of Christmas pjs aswell because we end up with lots of hand-me-downs. Last year we did slippers but it's tough to find the balance. I love the Lego kits and I am the same way- they can be so confusing!
💗
What great well thought out ideas ! Unrelated to Christmas but ...Do you have any book list recommendations videos ? Maybe by age . Loved all the recommendations in this video! Looks like you have good picks !
We do a big stocking and 4 gifts on Christmas. This year each of my kids got a “big” gift that they specifically wanted, a big Lego set, a board game, and something cozy. And then they also get pjs and a book on Christmas Eve.
Love that you did a big Lego set too! Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas! 🙂
My of 5 here also,I’ve been doing the Christmas matching pjs for years now. I decided to give it to them the first week of December instead of wait until Christmas Eve. I just don’t know yet which I prefer to give it to them.
My kids loved the book “A boy called Bat!”. I didn’t realize there was a second and third book. I’ll have to go look for them now!
We read other books by that author and loved them as well, too.
I’ve never heard of any other titles by that author so I’ll have to look those up now! 😊
Hey I am trying to find the cute floral outfit you got for your older girl, would you be able to link it? Looks so cozy and I'm in Canada! Thanks!
It’s a two piece mix and match, so here is the link for the top. www.childrensplace.com/ca/p/Girls-Long-Sleeve-Print-Waffle-Hoodie-3036211-6M They only have one size left though 😕
is a house coat the same thing as a robe?
Yes, same thing! 😊
My sister does 3 gifts for her kids. 1 need, 1 want, 1 surprise. Jesus got 3 gifts, so she says they get 3 too. I do 1 or 2 big gifts then fluff it up with little bits and baubles.
“One surprise” sounds fun! 😊
have a merry christmas
Love the limited gifting :) Do u do Santa
No we don’t 😊
Hi Julie! We have 4 kids and they get a lot of joy from giving gifts to each other. This year I’m having them do a secret Santa amongst themselves, giving them each a budget of around $10. They can’t buy each other anything super nice with that, but at least we’re avoiding those really “chintzy” toys you were talking about!
I recently started a CZcams channel of my own, with you as one of me main sources of inspiration! Similar to you, my channel will have content on homeschooling, homemaking, and raising a family. I would love any tips you might be able to give me in this early stage of my journey!
Hi Angelina! I always consider Secret Santa but most of the kids really want to buy for ALL of their siblings! They each brought money to Walmart to spend about $5 on each sibling, and it’s depressing to realize how little you can buy with 5 bucks!
I will have to check your new channel out. Congratulations!! 😀
How do you stop yourself from buying more gifts? I overdo it every year, but I find great deals on things I think they'll like and can't seem to help myself 😵
Your stash looks exactly like ours lol!
Poor Wesley--- always starving 😂😂😂
I know 😂😂
Great video
Do your younger kids believe in Santa? I just wondered if you do Santa gifts?
No they don’t 😊
Great haul momma! Also, just a tip-you may want to flip through those BSC books before giving them. I have found some of the content controversial to what me and my family believe and I would NOT want you or your sweet babe to get blindsided by something inappropriate 😩😩😩
Thank you so much!! I googled and found nothing about that, so I will definitely have to page through the books! If you have a moment to email me and tell me what/where you found, I would appreciate that too! But no pressure 🙂
Yes, I’m pretty sure BSC include the LGBTQ lifestyle. Pretty sure the author of the original books was gay also.
@@blessedhomeschoolmommy1453 oh great 😬
@@mamatofive1 Ok, the best I can tell it seems it is for the show and the New graphic novels.
You are confident that none of your older kids watch your channel? ;-)
Quite confident, yes! 😂 They don’t have access to being online unless given permission, and it’s rarely CZcams. I think I’m safe for another couple of weeks lol
