    Id say €20-30 would be fine from an uncle/aunt.

    100 squids is good.
    50 is ok.
    If they are under 8 then a cheap 20 squid present is much better than cash

    I got my 6 year old goddaughter a 50euro doll and 20 euro make up kit for Christmas and her birthday.

    I'll be more generous when she is old enough to appricate it

    70 quid for a 6 year old?

    The tiger is definitely back.

    I've been giving mine around €40 since he became a teenager and didn't want present. About the same as what I spend on other members of my family.

    I have 2 nephews and 3 nieces ranging from 8-14. I give them 50euros each at christmas. Its probably a bit much but 3 live in the US and 2 in Dublin (I'm from Cork) so I don't see them very much. I'm far from well off and they're far from wanting but what the hey its only once a year.

    That said whatever you can afford or think is ok.
