My husband, kids and I just moved into a new neighborhood. I don't know anyone here. I recently joined a moms group we meet bi weekly and I wanted to buy them something as a token of appreciation. Something small. Do you think I should or shouldn't. If so what would be appropriate. There are 10 women in the group.

Re: New friends

That's really nice of you, but I wouldn't buy gifts. Maybe you can pick up the tab one day if you all go out for coffee? I think that's a nice way to say "thanks".

We don't generally all go out together. There are a few of us that get together more often then the others.

Bring bagels or donuts. I would not go all out.

I think it's super sweet of you and very generous. I think if you can afford it and it's what you want to do then go for it. Maybe a pastry from a bakery. If you were thinking a real gift maybe a coffee gift card with a sweet card writing something to each woman. I'm all for showing your appreciation even if it's something small!

As a member of a moms group it's a very nice thought but really not necessary. Where do you usually meet up, I agree with bring bagels donuts snacks whatever that would be fine

Thank you all for your suggestions. I guess a gift isn't necessary. I will bring breakfast to the next get together.
