Apparently, this has been going on for years but I am just now hearing about it. It is called the 4 gift rule and it is exactly what it sounds like. You only give your children 4 gifts for Christmas. Which does not sound like a lot, but it makes everything more simple. They know that they are only getting 4 gifts each every year and each of them has a theme. Plus, it makes it really easy on parents because they have very clear ideas on what to get each kid.
So what are the 4 gift rules?
WANT – This will be that thing that they really want like a new Playstation or a bike.
NEED – One of those things that they need but perhaps it’s been too expensive to buy, like an electric toothbrush or a nice hair dryer.
WEAR – Clothes for the new year, new shoes, make up anything they can wear.
READ – A new book or even something educational.
My favorite part of this is that it makes it easy for the shopper. Instead of choosing from a 1000 different things they want, I can focus on these specific subjects. It helps to narrow down the possibilities and make my shopping go much faster. Plus, as a gift receiver I’ll know exactly what to expect.
What do you think? Do you have gift giving rules that you follow on Christmas?
