Cousin gifts

Tweet

I finished off the gifts for my kid's cousins all from the ages of 16 down to 7 years old. Yeah, that's a big range to cover over kids that aren't even mine but hot dang I always get them a Christmas gift knowing we will be seeing them. Aunty always got them covered. Now I know my husband's sister doesn't tell me what her kids want or need for Christmas no matter how many times I have tried nicely over the last 3 years. She used to tell in a group text or family chat now she doesn't. Those kids live 3 hours away and we don't get to see them often so I got to guess what her kids like. Thankfully my kids help. My boys always know what her two boys want since they are the same age. My 12-year-old helped pick out something for her little cousin. A bracelet-making set. It was $5 and came with a case to keep the piece nice and organized when not being used. For my older nephew, we got him a book about "Queen." My oldest is autistic and he loves facts about things. My kids also suggested we get him something for his hands. So we found a squishy Smore' because you can always use more squishy toys in your life for when you are stressed or can't keep the wiggles inside you anymore.
