Guaranteed to please..............

As you know I have multiple grand children between the ages of 4 through 13, yep one's a teenager already!!  Anyhow to eldest five are ages  nearly 10 to 13 years old.  They are past the easy to please with cheap chocolate and toys stage, cash is key with those guys....LOL

I will be seeing those five over the next week or so and I am not sure if I'll see them before Easter, so decided to be organized and get their Easter gifts sorted.  Of the five, four are girls and one boy.  I headed to Dollarama and this is what I got!


In each bag I placed four bags of candy and a $10 Dollarama gift card.........
I popped them into a brown bag lunch bag, and decorated it with Easter stickers, remember they are tweens and teens, so baby things are not cool!!  They will tolerate a few stickers ....just...LOL I always do seven hugs and kisses on everything of theirs, one hug and kiss per grandchild.
I realize it is not a healthy or nutritious treat bag, but they will be thrilled with it, plus they get a gift card to go and buy more sugary treats!!!

By the way I use the brown bag lunch bags, to store my mushrooms in the fridge, they last way longer when you do that!

I haven't forgotten the two youngest ones, both boys, but as they are 4 and 7 they are still okay with just a toy and candy, oh and stickers!!!  I will get them closer to the time as we live closer to them.

I love these little gift bags! Also, did not know that about the brown bags, thank you.

You're a great Grandma! Wish I could do something similar for our grandies but sadly they live too far away and postage is far too expensive. Instead I get them each a card from the dollar store, find them activity sheets on the internet and write a letter on the back. Then I plaster the envelope with stickers. I'm told it's great excitement when they get the mail and they know immediately there's something from us. The RC periodically makes cookies and we spend a small fortune to ship them, but at least it's a way of keeping in contact.

The gift bags look fantastic. A great idea.
Yes as they get older it gets harder as my first granddaughter turned ten this year I got her some Adriana perfume in a wicked themed bottle.
Plus some money. She was thrilled with that.
I did get mummy’s permission before getting the perfume. I think she might get to use it too lol

Your treat bags are just perfect.

God bless.

Which one are you?

Still not feeling great so catching up on some reading.  I am a cross between The Statue/The Whisperer/The Hoarder.  I am trying my hardest ...
