"Big" Christmas gifts for kids ideas...

Wife and I are struggling to come with a fun "big" gift from Santa for the kids this year along with all the other junk we buy. Ages 4 - 11 which obviously makes it a little tougher. In year's past we've done things like Golf Cart (not looking to spend that much this year), Trampoline, Swing/Climbing Set, Basketball Goal, etc. Best we've come up with is a monkey bar setup which costs an amazing $1,500 or so. Would pay it if I thought they'd love it but not all are into monkey bars. Wondering if any good ideas out there. Considering a puppy but kinda late and will probably wait 1 more year on that.

Where do you live? Season tickets to theme park/water park/zoo/museums/movies or the like. An experience gift.

Condition your kids to value experiences over “things” while they’re young and they’ll live a much more fulfilled life

That's a good idea, thanks. We're on northshore.

I vote for some 4-wheelers but not sure how much you want to spend..
Some of the cheap ones will run awhile and main issue is carb issues which are easy to fix.?
Rescue dog would be great with them all being old enough to understand how to handle the dog.
Dog would also teach them some responsibility.

I usually let my wife worry about this. Not my problem just tell me what I need to assemble.

Agree with that for sure, most of the big things we've bought at least promote hanging out as a family (golf cart) or getting outside and moving around (trampoline, swings, basketball, bikes etc). But I do agree with the thought.

Why should Santa get the glory of the "Big Gift"?
give the Big gift from Mom and Dad.
Santa can bring the Legos and Video games.
