[blindkid] Christmas Presents

[Bernadette Jacobs]

Good morning Linda: thanks for your suggestions. I really appreciate your help. Secondly, as for gifts for your children. As for your 12-year-old, does she have pierced ears question you might want to get her things like a cute little jewelry box, for her earrings. Actually, this might be a very nice idea for both children. Another suggestion I have, do they like to read, there are plenty of places with braille books out there. Are they braille reader's question seedlings actually has some very nice books for older braille readers. Are they signed up for an LS question another nice thing, might be to get some kind of exercise machine like an exercise bike. We have a treadmill downstairs. David loves it. He thinks it's wonderful when he and mom can take turns on the treadmill. A membership for your local Y or swim club might also be a nice thing. That is, if they are interested in swimming. Just keep an eye on their interests, and this will dictate what you might like to buy for them for their gifts. A lot of girls also like dresses and girly things at that age. My daughter Virginia is even getting into things like colognes, lip balm's, and those kinds of things. I will not allow her make up as she is only 11. But she does internally have dry lips and I do bye lip balm's and glosses for her. That is far as I will allow her to go. Another thing you might want to do is, ask them to simply think about what they would like to get and ask them to write lists for you. That way, you can pick and choose and you will know that it's something they would like.
