Christmas Shopping

Every time I see the art kits on Woot.com I want to buy one for each of my two older nephews, even though neither of them have shown a sign of really being into art projects. One popped up today, and it got me to thinking about that time of year that always overshadows Halloween. This spawned a brainstorming trip through Amazon on potential gifts for the boys. A search for 'Kids Art Kits' produces so much awesome.

( I could totally live vicariously through my nephews. )

I think more than anything, the boys need someone there with them to do these kinds of projects. They're very social. They have at least one couple-year-older friend they hang out with quite often, and with him and my eldest they are old enough to read instructions, but in general, the boys all seem to want to play with non-technical games and toys. I wonder if I could sway them otherwise.
