Kids tradition

We have a tradition in our family that the kids all give presents to each other.  We go to the dollar store and they pick out something for each other.  This year they talked me into letting them open their own gifts a day or two before Christmas.
 Avery's gift to Devin - Axe knockoff.  He was THRILLED!
 Devin's gift to Avery - a ball.  Had to write a note and have her find it since that would have been obvious!
 Avery's gift to Justin - Mountain Dew (another note)
 Justin's gift to Devin - A toy
 Justin's gift to Avery - Loom bands
 Devin's gift to Justin - Axe knockoff
 I love this tradition! I love how excited they are to open their $1 gifts and know that their siblings had to think about what they might really like.  It proves you don't need a lot of money to make someone feel special.  :)
