BIRTHDAY ZIPPY BAGS

My youngest grandson is having a birthday next week.  I have come to the conclusion that cards are just a waste of time and money with children.  I have taken to putting their gifts into zippy bags made with some special theme fabric and giving them money instead.  
This boy loves sharks, this shark fabric was a perfect fabric to make his bag in.  Mom said could I make it big enough to put a book into it.  Great idea, I am headed to Barnes and Noble for a shark book of some sort.

  4. I agree that giving kids cards is a waste. I make my own cards but still they wouldn't look at them more than a second and into the trash they'd go. Mine are still little and all about the toys, LOL
