Last year I did salt dough ornaments we made here, plus 3 balls of unbaked dough each dyed a different colour for them to play with at home with a cookie cutter attached. I think it cost about $4 per child. So cheap.The kids also made a picture frame with their picture inside it standing in front of our xmas tree. But i dont think any of the kids used the dough, parents probably just tossed it.
This year I bought each child a gift for about $15/$20. I got my girls a jewellery box they can decorate (they both love little bracelets and necklaces) and a puzzel or book. For the boy I have I got him a play took box with tools and a book.

I am, however stumped on what to get for my parents, if anything. I did not get anything in particular for the parents but felt like crap since I got from one family a $50 giftcard, from another family, another 450 giftcard and she also got me gifts for my own two children.
I know there was a thread about gifts for parents, but cannot find it. Sorry to hijack this one lol
