Can you guess how much it costs to make this? I know. I’m not good at guessing that kind of stuff either. Would you believe it costs around 6 bucks to make this? Head over to Dollar Store Crafts for more information about how to make this yourself.

Disclosure: For your shopping convenience, we are including a link when possible for each gift idea so that you can purchase if you know someone who’d enjoy it. These are affiliate links, through which we are paid a commission percentage from each purchase. We are donating 100% of the profits from the Christmas event through our blog to The Spoon Foundation. We are passionate about helping provide good nutrition to children struggling with malnourishment. Read more about our family’s experience with the problem of malnourishment here.

We decided to start a family tradition of giving our children a game every year for Christmas. We definitely want some non-electronic play options in our home, and games are also a fun family night activity. What’s your child/children’s favorite game to play?

Before you leave the party, don’t forget to check out our current giveaway if you have not already (also remember there are ways to enter each day, if you’d like) and the ideas from the Christmas Smorgasbord! So far, the top two viewed links have been the Christmas Love and my Christmas Pinterest Board. We’d love for more of you to link-up also. Your post does not have to be a new one and you are welcome to link more than one.
