I had NO time before Christmas. Like barely even got the kids gifts bought. So I definitely didn't have time to take them individually to buy for each other. This was the first year that they were both so excited to get presents for other people. So I came up with a game plan and to Target we went.
I took a Nuggest headband for a blind fold and Avery's jacket to hide the presents. They took turns wearing the blind fold while the other picked out a present. Brody went first, Avery got him Star Wars slinkies. Now it's Avery's turn, Brody picked out a LaLaLoopsy little sister. I hid them under the cart under Avery's jacket.
At the check out I told the checker that we had surprises under the cart. He played along great! The kids turned around and closed their eyes, he checked them out quick and put them in a red sack so you couldn't see them.
It was so cute how the kids played along. They didn't complain about the blind fold at all. They were so excited about what they got each other. I think this was the only trip I have ever made to Target where they didn't ask for ANYTHING for themselves!
