Gift Ideas for Kids

Do you come to a mental block when it comes to giving kids (yours or other parents') gifts?

Do you feel you either give the same kinds of things to the same kid, or that you resort to just giving a gift card?

Do you ever get overwhelmed at the thought of coming up with something creative to give a child (something that they will actually want to use)?

If you answered yes to any of these questions then you should check out these simple and inexpensive gifts for children.

Hold That Dollar

Use your local library as a way to "preview" movies and books.

If there is a title you are eager to check out, check the library first. Being able to view the item for FREE sure beats paying for it, especially in these hard economic times. If you find that the book/movie isn't what you had hoped it would be then you can return it to the library. A free preview can help you decide to buy or not to buy, or even to just be content to borrow for a short time.

DID YOU KNOW? If your local library does not carry a particular title you are searching for, they can help you locate it in another library ... and then get the book shipped to your branch for you to check out. And it's all FREE!

Tap into the great FREE source of entertainment today! Memberships are FREE. It's a win-win situation. Your local library gets used and you get to read books, watch movies, etc. for FREE!

PS - It's a great place for a playdate!
