There are so many choices of gifts we can give to our kids. I prefer toys that are educational which they can learn while playing. So definitely not buying that kind of toy.
i prefer to asked them to play in the field beside buying toys for them because we can teach them how to communicate with each other and play with their friends. i won't buy a toys that maybe related with gambling because soon they will thinking and trying to playing gambling and they could hiding from me while they are playing.
I definitely agree with your idea on how you are going to raise your child. Clearly, you can buy them everything they want but you won't, but if you do, they'd grow up spoiled and that could cause a lot of problems in the future. I like the idea that they should communicate with other kids and play, not just on their iPad's.
