Every child loves a little one-on-one time with their parents, so it would be the perfect Christmas gift. Plan a fun date with your child and make them feel special the whole night. It'll mean the world to them to have a few hours of undivided attention from both parents.

Kids love parties, but throwing them can be a serious hassle. Tell your child they can invite whoever they want and you'll throw them an awesome party. Let them help plan it, choose the theme and hand out the invitations. The party will be such a fun memory for them to look back on.

3A class they've been wanting to take

If your little one has been wanting to take dance, art, gymnastics or any sport classes, Christmas is the perfect time to gift them the classes. Give them the supplies they'll need to start, then hand them a paper with the class information on it. They'll be so excited, they'll learn a new skill and they'll be able to keep taking the class throughout the year.
