In two days, it will be Christmas. Children all over the world have been looking forward to this day for weeks. People celebrate Christmas with food, decorations, music and more. But for many people, gift-giving is the most exciting part of the holiday.
I have fond memories of Christmas shopping with my family as a child. I enjoyed the challenge of keeping my parents’ gifts a secret. It was hard to buy gifts right under their noses without them seeing. Everyone in my family bought gifts for each other and wrapped them in colorful paper. We placed them under the Christmas tree until Christmas morning, when we opened them.
Picking a great gift requires knowing and loving the person you’re giving it to. You need to know the person’s tastes and find something the person doesn’t already have. This can be quite a challenge. Often it’s wise to provide a receipt in case the person needs to exchange the gift. |
