Thrifty Thursday: Inexpensive Birthday Gifts for Preschoolers

Thursday June 25, 2009

According to the National Center for Health Statistics, the most popular month for birthdays in the United States is August, followed close behind by July. I'm not sure why there are so many born when the weather is warm, but I do know my family spends a lot of time at birthday parties over the summer. I'm always happy when my kids get invited to a summertime party -- it is a nice way for them to reconnect with friends that haven't seen in a while. However, the cost of buying presents can quickly add up, not to mention I feel like I often live at the store, constantly trying to find an appropriate gift.

If your preschooler is a party animal this summer, check out our list of inexpensive birthday gifts for little kids. From books to buying in bulk, there are a ton of ways to purchase a nice gift while watching your wallet.

What are some of your inexpensive gift ideas?
