Christmas gifts for friends w/kids

Ok, let's get real here, we're pregnant. That means that this Christmas is going to be very "gift from the heart" orientated rather than "a gift from my AMEX". Right?
Cool.

OK so I have this family on my Christmas list whom I think need to spend more time with their 3 year old child and less on their phones. My husband and I agreed that ONE gift for all 3 of them was enough. Like from our family to yours. I was originally going to bake cookies for my list this year (since I don't bake...at all..it makes it that much more special), but for them I was thinking of a board game that they could play together as a family.

Do you think they'll feel offended that it seems like I only got their kid a gift? I mean... I'm still going to bake them cookies...

That's a great gift! We've gotten and given that exact thing...a family board game. We love our games. Especially chutes and ladders

It sounds perfect. Maybe they will get the hint. I wish people would do that for us, it's a wonderful idea. I would love to get something that thoughtful. Chutes and ladders is the perfect game especially for a child of that age.

I wouldn't be offended it's a gift I would enjoy better the just a toy they won't play with and I hate getting individual gifts I don't want a gift myself I want it to be about the kids if they seem offended or upset just don't bother next year naughty list them :)

What if you made it like a game night gift basket? That way its more obvious what your intentions are. Like a board game, cookies, maybe a box of popcorn or something too?
