10 Christmas Gift Ideas for Grandkids Under $5 Each (Ages 4 to College)

Christmas gift ideas for grandkids that are designed to cost $5 or less per grandchild, from age 4 all the way to college. These are the thoughtful, old-fashioned gifts my grandmother gave, built from things you may already have at home. Prices vary by store, so shop with a pencil and trim where you can. In this video, ideas are arranged by age: a plant-a-memory pot, a movie night bucket, a comic book starter pack, a grocery store scavenger hunt, a puzzle box, a secret agent shopping mission, an emergency candy jar, an envelope of independence, a skill voucher, and open-when letters for college students. What’s the best gift you ever gave a grandchild for under five dollars? Tell me in the comments, and send this to a grandmother who’s staring at a gift list. New here?
