This might be a good chance to teach your kids compassion. Maybe ask each one to choose one gift on their list to give to some other shild who isn't going to have such a great Christmas this year. If they give something that means something to them, chances are it will stick with them that they are VERY lucky to be able to spare something. If they have extra gifts they don't really like from the other sources, they could donate those too. I think the good feeling we get when we're able to give to someone else is also a great gift to ourselves!
I'm glad you're thinking about this. It shows the kids have a good example to lead them... and that's the greatest gift of all.
