That way we only risk about $3 and she still can choose something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-pick-out-their-friends-birthday-gifts#post-2578320 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 08:59:54 +0000 autumnlove 2578320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-pick-out-their-friends-birthday-gifts#post-2578316 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 08:55:00 +0000 Mamaof2 2578316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope - I pick them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-pick-out-their-friends-birthday-gifts#post-2578312 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 08:52:41 +0000 LuLu Mom 2578312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, she just picked out a Paw Patrol toy for her cousin, I don't know the show so I didn't know "who the cool character" was and she knew right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-pick-out-their-friends-birthday-gifts#post-2578309 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 08:52:02 +0000 looch 2578309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, he doesn't get to pick. First because my son has expensive taste, and second, chooses what he likes!</p> <p>It's easier for me to get the same exact thing and give that to all the kids (of the same age) when we get invited to birthday parties. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-pick-out-their-friends-birthday-gifts#post-2577605 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 08:45:00 +0000 mediagirl 2577605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I find this hard when we don't know the child all that well. But, her best friend's birthday is coming up so I took our daughter to the Disney store and told her to pick out anything she wanted. She walked through the entire store, touching everything and finally grabbed a Minnie Mouse doll. She handed it to me and said, "She can cuddle with this when she sleeps." :) </p> <p>Do you let your child pick out their friends birthday gifts? Do you pick them out and ask for approval? </p>
