How many gifts should I give my family?

[Anonymous]

I’ve got one gift for everyone in the extended family, but my aunt and cousin, for whom I have two gifts each, my cousin a new white dress and a book, my aunt a top and a pendant. Should I add a scented body scrub for my cousin and for my aunt some scented candles, or is that insulting to everyone else?

These are Christmas gifts.

Honestly, I wouldn't sweat it too much about giving out the exact same number of gifts to everyone. Like as long as you got something for each person, that's what really matters.

Your aunt and cousin will probably just appreciate you thought about getting them a couple things they'd like. Unless the rest of your family is super competitive or something, I doubt anyone will feel "insulted" by an extra small gift. Family's about way more than gift giving anyway.

Maybe you could wrap the scrub and candles separate from the main gifts though, so it's not like two big presents in front of everyone else. Or even just give them as like a little thank you extra later on if you see them. As long as you showed you care about people, that's all that's important during the holidays! Don't stress too much.

Other than a s/o adults shouldn't worry about giving other adults gifts.
