Description:

My kids get very excited when I am putting together a package for a swap and when my swap packages arrive. As a result, I want them to have a swap of their own and since I am already doing a daugher's swap (http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/8406), I wanted to do a son's swap so my boy is not left out.

With that said, you will prepare a Christmas swap package for a boy between 3 and 13 (give your son/grandson's age and interests in the Discussion section below).

Spending limit is $20, and it would be great to include at least one handmade item. I am sorry but this swap is US only but feel free to set up an international only.

There will be 1 month to gather your items so please start your planning now and be creative and only send items you'd like your child to receive. Once you receive your swap, please give hearts for extra effort – like theme or special wrapping, and be patient with the post office as it is approaching the holiday season.

If your partner has more than one son/grandson, split the gifts evenly. Don't have sons? Then give the gift you receive to a grandson, nephew, neighbor or friend's son but join in on the fun. There is always so much stuff in the stores for girls, so let's show our sons that they are special too!!

As a newbie myself, this swap is open to NEWBIES but please message me first and have your profiles well filled in. Also, other swappers must have at least a 3.5 rating or higher. No no-sends within the last 3 months. I will check all profiles prior to partners being assigned.

Happy swapping!!

Woohoo! I am so excited, so excited, I forgot to leave my son's information. :) Zechariah is 3 1/2 but truly an old soul. He loves Spider Man, trucks (monster), NASCAR (Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart), Football (Dallas Cowboys), motorcycles, and he loves animals of all kinds. He is a book boy and he is learning to read and will sit for long stretches of time with books. He also likes puzzles, art stuff and the colors blue, orange, red and green.

My son Johnny is 6 and he loves building materials, Lincoln logs, leggos, kinex, tinker toys, magnetix. anything pretty much associated with building. He's also a very crafty kid and likes anything where he can glue paint fold cut color etc... He loves cars and the big monster trucks. Anything Camoflage. He's very easy to make happy so he should be an easy one.

My son James is 6 yrs old & in the 1st grade. He has a DS Lite & loves playing any game on there! He likes: the color blue (any shade) Yu-Gi-Oh cards (even those he doesnt really know how to play the right way), he loves lego's (star wars legos is what he is really into right now), He also scrapbooks with me & has his own book. So anything thing for that (papers, stickers, ect.) I think that he just really wants to get mail.

We home school on our farm. Douglas is 7. He loves to read. He is reading Little Britches by Ralph Moody, it is the only one we have in the series(can often be found in used book stores) His favorite thing to read is ancient history (Greeks & Romans) or Civil War. He never has enough bookmarks. He has his own vegetable garden. He likes to grow pumpkins, beans, corn, potatoes, tomatoes,and peas.(Row markers would be a great handmade craft) He has chickens, bunnies and goats that he spends time out in the cold feeding (he would love anything hand knit or crocheted especially a scarf or hat) His favorite colors are red, blue, green and stripes. He is interested in tree identification and learning the constellations. He likes KitKats and maple sugar candies the ones that are pressed into little leafs or shapes. These can be difficult to find, especially here in Ohio. He is a Cub Scout and could always use another bandanna for his pack. Let me know if you need any help.

My son, Devon, is almost 12. He is great at poker & loves to watch it on TV. He loves football (Pittsburgh Steelers) He is an avid reader~ of all types of books but more a teen/adult level. (He just re-read all the Harry Potter books, just for fun...) He especially loves Mangas~ a japanese anime book. He is a lego fanatic. Magnetix, K-nex, Bionicles, anything like that. If you are thinking homemade and have the talent he would love a scarf! (He just asked... so I thought I would mention it..!) He just started to hunt too, so camoflauge is always cool! He loves any color and is about the easiest person in the world to please.
