This list of gift suggestions is organized by dad types, because, after all, most dads have specific passions and attitudes that make them who they are.
\nAs parents, we want Christmas morning to be a time full of smiles and excitement for both our children and ourselves. We hope that our kids will remember our holidays together as a family when they are adults and that we can talk about the day for years to come. However, Christmas can easily become overwhelming to children and not live up to our expectations as parents. With a little bit of planning and preparation, you can reduce stress on Christmas morning and enjoy your holiday together.

The possibilities are endless if you use your imagination, but here are just a few smart and inexpensive green ideas.
