Presents for the birthday kid's brother and sister? No, it's not their birthday. If you mean presents to the birthday kid from DJ, then one from Gracen, and one from Danyelle...no. Just one big one from the entire family.

No. Exactly what Sheena said.

No. One gift is sufficient for the birthday child.

Hell NO!! Is it their birthday too? Our neighbors had a party for their twins and we only gave them 1 present. Everyone else gave one also because times are hard. And everyone was fine with that.

I say NO again! They have their own birthdays

No...only a present for the birthday kid. I have even been know (when inviting someone to a bday party) to say presents are not necessary.

that would be a big phatt HECK NAW! Unless they are multiples, it's just my way but I'd give each multiple a gift.

I was taught to -- my mother insisted that it was the "proper" thing to do, especially for children in the family (like nieces, nephews).

But when I did it as a parent, the parents always kind of tossed them aside. One sent a thank you note for all of the gifts and made a point of wording it so that I knew the sibling gift (a simple pack of PlayDoh) went to the birthday child. I wouldn't do it for siblings over the age of 3 or 4 and now I don't do it at all.
