I brought up the possibility of this swap last year, but ended up being too busy to make it happen. Would anyone be interested in joining a holiday swap for our kids? My daughters get so excited over my swap packages, but are too young to join the forum and participate themselves. I'd love to help them put together swap packages for some of the other kids too young to participate here.

Anyone interested? I'd also love to have someone help me with putting this together if possible. I've never run a swap here, only helped with one over on the livejournal comms. I have the time to run it, but I'd love to have someone with experience help me out. Any volunteers?

This would be so much fun for our kids!

I'd probably sign up for a kids swap as long as my 3.5 year old could participate. He loves shopping for his friends' birthday presents with m

I think all ages should be welcomed to play. I'll try to set one up in January since there are already several holiday swaps going on, and people are busy with holiday stuff in general.

I've done several swaps here, and my daughters always love to watch me put the packages together, and are as excited as I am when mine arrives. This year they have both asked to make accounts here because they want to be a part of the swaps. Since they are 9 and 13 I laughed and told them no, that they aren't old enough.

But I was thinking that if there is any interest maybe we could do a parent supported swap for our kids? They would fill out the questionaires and be in charge of choosing what to put in the packages, and we would be in charge of paying and making sure they follow through and get everything done in time. I'm not sure there are even enough moms here with children old enough to participate, much less that would be interested.

Anyone think this is a good idea, or want to tell me why this is a bad idea? I searched around to see if I could find a swap like this, but didn't find anything.

Pssst. Hey guys. Aberforth Dumbledore = Nonae Caprotina.

My Potterverse characterizations have been warped by many years of reading fanfiction, so they may be more based on fanon than canon. I'm not sure I know the difference at this point.

Lucius would definitely wear Dorian, and Draco with his white blond hair and cold gray eyes smells like Ice Prince. And the Draco in my head loves a hot bath, so that works out well.

I have never come up with a good scent for Harry. Possibly Bonfire Night because I imagine adult Harry would be a beer drinker, and we know he likes treacle. And traveling by floo might leave you a little smoke scented.

These aren't based on scent, just the actual names. I wish I had all these because I'd love to put a set of Harry Potter labels on them for you. As a huge Potter fan I know I'd be thrilled to get them as a gift.

I love both Blood and Jazz Funeral. Blood is dark and sexy and just gets better with age. Jazz Funeral on me is lots of dirt, and unlike anything I've ever smelled.
