I decided to change way I gift for Christmas this year.

1. My grandson is 7 and has so many toys he could open his own store. I decided to take him to his favorite restaurant for Christmas rather than give him a material gift. Is this something you would do?

I already do something like this.

That's a great idea, I would love to do that.

No, I think I'll stick to traditional gifting.

2. My granddaughter is 11 now so I decided to take her to an English tea room for her Christmas gift. She loved it so much and we had a wonderful afternoon. Is this something you would consider for someone you love?

That sounds like a great idea.

This isn't something I would or could do.

I would not choose that experience but I have other ideas.

I will stick to traditional gifts.

3. My granddaughter's birthday is also in December. She loves Cerreta's French Mints so I took her to Cerreta's candy factory and let her buy any candies she would like. We had a great time and took the long way home; the conversations were the best part of it for me.

I would do something like this.

I think I'll stick to traditional gift giving.

I wouldn't or couldn't do something like this as a gift.

4. My mother gave me experiences rather than gifts when I was a teen and I remember them all. They were simple and inexpensive but I treasure those memories. I'm 70 and won't have all the time I would like with my grandchildren so I opted for experiences rather than gifts. Is there a special memory you made with your parents or a loved one that means more to you than a material gift? (optional)
