Secret Santa this year - an Idea I had

yes or no?

Or any other ideas are welcome.

Last year when I got my present from Kayla'smommy...Mckaylee and Russell were in 7th Heaven.....They loved every minute of it and Im sure most of your children did too...So I thought a christmas ornament craft would be nice and fun for the kids to make....They don't have to be anything expensive...I know that most craft stores sell the ones you can paint really cheap....My grandma works in a hospital in the gift shop and they make alot of their stuff and she has made some neat ones over the years with popsicle sticks...you name it. .

mummy2girls replied: plus if we do this we have to promise that whoever participates that everyone sends something.. as last year i think a few were left out:(

but that is a good idea about the ornaments:)

kimberley replied: it is a cute idea but tbh, i would run these exchanges as i would p&i... minimum post and length of membership requirement. i am less comfortable having people know where i live than knowing about my intimate moments with dh. and that way you are less likely to have people commit then just bail because they "know" each other well and wouldn't do that to each other.

also, whoever runs any gift exchange... remember to try to pair everyone up according to country. transborder gifts can be laden with heavy duties.

Only one person to my knowledge was left out and something was sent to her.

Kaitlin'smom replied: sounds fun. Kait LOVES doing crafts.

boyohboyohboy replied: Oh I think its a neat idea, but I hope the number of posts isnt to high, I for one have made some really great friends here in the last 6 months, but dont always have a chance to post to 1,000 post yet!
