Reese Witherspoon only buys her children “one or two” Christmas presents

Reese Witherspoon only buys her children “one or two” Christmas presents.
The ‘Four Christmases’ star – who has nine-year-old Ava and five-year-old
Deacon with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe – admits she limits the amount of
gifts her family receive on the festive holiday because she doesn’t want
them to be spoilt.
After saying Ava has asked for a horse for Christmas, Reese said: “I'm a
little strict about that kind of stuff. I think kids do best when they only
have a couple of things that they really enjoy.
“I try and stay away from the gluttony of things. They don't appreciate it
as much. When they only get one or two things, they really like it.”
Reese – who is currently dating her ‘Rendition’ co-star Jake Gyllenhaal –
also revealed she loves cooking a huge festive feast.
She added: “After opening presents, I start cooking, and I really enjoy that
part of it. The kids play with their toys, and I cook some dinner. It's
nice.”
The Oscar-winning actress added that the children have found a novel way to
entertain themselves when they grow tired of their new toys – dressing up
her Academy Award.
She laughed: “At Christmas time, they put a little hat on him and a little
scarf so he doesn't get cold!”
