"OR the silver Victorian shoe horn that our 6 year old got; it was pretty but she had no idea of how it should be used at Christmas dinner."
So, did she think she was supposed to eat with it?

I work on the theory that the sons get what they need, the grandsons get what they want.
I always ask them what they want, this year, they both told me money. Pretty easy.

When I was 10, my Brothers and I searched for a Mother’s Day gift. We picked a pretty but cheap flower vase at the dime store.
We could not find a card which said “from your 3 Sons” so we just put an “S” after Son and a “3” before. For some reason it really touched her.
Many years later she told me that vase was the most valuable thing she owned. After she died, I found the card in her keepsakes. My Daughter now has it and the vase.

Every child should be given a piggy bank and a way to make music. YMMV

Mom was touched by our grown up gift...leau de toilette....17 cents at Woolworths. Always wondered why it lasted so long.

Every 5 year old should get a drum set. ;-) At 6 they should get a vuvuzela. ;-)) At 7 a case of air horns is in order.
They will not make it to 8.

I try to find a gift for friends kids that the kids will love and the parents will hate. Like the voice changing megaphone I gave my best friends 3 year old. She’s 15 now and still has it, parents still hate it. It’s good for a laugh now.

I hope you keep all those grandparents’ gifts.
When you kids are older, they may pay double to get it back.
