I lo...My daughter LOVES Naveen's choice in toy. I love that you gave them free reign to pick out what they wanted. I am charmed that Deaglan took 8 hours to labor over his choices.<br /><br />We struggle with gifts - the kids are really honest if the past year T Rex received a puzzle that was definitely for a younger child. His remark was, "Thank you but Mama, this is a baby toy." I felt terrible for the person watching him open the gift but at the same, he was honest and spoke the truth. I try to teach gratitude and honesty. It's just tough with gifts. I do like gift cards and the few times we've requested no gifts a few people brought gift cards to the birthdays. That was pretty cool. It was not my intent but it did introduce the kids to the concept. , T Rex Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07581711492269619311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287005166012220959.post-68392644201235332422013-02-17T19:22:54.388-05:002013-02-17T19:22:54.388-05:00I think kids that age are just not developmentally...I think kids that age are just not developmentally ready to defer gratification.

Cort is also often drawn to pink and usually wants to buy something like a FurReal puppy. Reid is into dinosaurs. Pierce is into spy equipment.

It's so sweet! It's kind of annoying that toy makers feel the need to make cooking/baking toys pink (which to me marks them as for girls only). But I know lots of little boys who would love an Easy Bake Oven or tea cart regardless of the color and I am so glad you are a parent who let her son have oneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700057904506855793noreply@blogger.com
