I’ve shared a lot of gift guides over the last month, but here’s what we’re actually getting our boys for Christmas this year!

What we’re giving our kids for Christmas

There have been tons of gift guides here on Merrick’s Art for the last month (you can see them all RIGHT HERE), but today I wanted to share what we’re actually giving our kids for Christmas this year.

What we’re giving our 11 year old:

Kids Kindle

  • These Kids Kindles are on huge sale right now, so I scooped up one for each of my older boys. They are both huge readers, and I’m so excited for them to have these e-readers to read and listen to books in bed, while we travel, and more.

Cologne

  • I bought this cologne for my boys two years ago and we finally have run out so it was time for a refill. It smells super good and is made specifically for kids.

Golf gear:

New Sneakers

Alarm Clock

  • This year B has started using an alarm clock to wake up on his own several days a week. He is using Philip’s super old alarm clock from college. It’s so old and has so much trouble, so we’re getting him a new alarm clock for his room.

Minted Apron

Shashibo Cube

  • This shape shifting cube is hugely popular and since most of his gifts are pretty practical, I wanted to throw one fun thing in his gifts!

Stockings:

We always put socks and underwear in our kids stockings, plus some candy and another small thing or two.

What we’re getting our 9 year old:

Kids Kindle

Harry Potter LEGO Set

Origami Yoda Books 1 & 2

InvestiGators Books 1 & 2

Football book

  • Fos is a huge football fan and Philip found this book that he’ll definitely love.

Football collector cards

Basketball shorts

  • We’re heading into basketball season and Fos needed some new shorts, so we got him two pairs of these.

Texas Apron

Stocking

What we’re getting our 5 year old:

Knight bus LEGO set

  • Sanny is super into LEGO and Harry Potter, so we got him this Knight Bus set. He’s going to love it!

Woodworking Kit

  • All Sanny wants this year is wood to build things, so I found him this fun woodworking kit with wood and a little hammer and nails and glue. It’s on sale through today too!

Light up Soccer Ball

  • This year our five year old started soccer, and this light up soccer ball will be so fun to practice in the backyard when it’s super dark so early.

Star Wars LEGO Set

London Apron

Wallace and Grace Books 1 & 2

Kayla and King Books 1 & 2

Baby Yoda Toy

  • We’re big Mandalorian fans in our house and I found this cute Baby Yoda toy on sale and had to grab it for Sanny!

CD Player

  • Sanny loves to listen to audiobooks and does almost every day for quiet time and at night before he goes to bed. His current CD player broke, so I’m getting him this new one for Christmas.

Stocking:

Family Gift

We’re also getting season passes to Six Flags for our kids for Christmas as a big family gift! Our kids are now old enough to ride pretty much all the rides, so we’re excited to have season passes for the year.

    Many people are interested in math storm learning, but are unsure where to start. There are a few websites that provide quality math lessons in a variety of formats. The Annenberg Foundation offers interactive lessons that explain algebra, geometry, trigonometry, precalculus, and calculus. You can use these resources to help you with your academic studies and learn about the subject in an entertaining way. These sites have been around for years and are great for helping kids get more comfortable with math.

  3. If you are still worried about being afraid of horror games, poppy playtime chapter 3 may be the opposite. Although it is inspired by horror, the story behind it makes you think differently.

    Your blog taught me a lot, and you may study more about earlier video games to enjoy them. Enjoy playing with you in the past! five nights at freddy’s
