I have three kids ages 5, 9, and 12. They have tons of toys and games. I know it's only June but am already thinking of some great presents that they would really love.
Answer
Books. I have three kids about the same ages as yours. They also have plenty of toys and games. What's great about a book is that it's compact, portable, inexpensive, doesn't require batteries and provides hours of entertainment on long car/plane trips :-)

How do you keep a spotless house with 3 kids?

Kids are age 7, 5, and 3
Shlynn at the moment that's exactly what I am doing but I still have the clutter I'm trying to organize yet cooking dinner every night and keeping the house clean (not spotless) is exhausting. I notice I swept about five times a day as well as mop that often too. And a load of laundry every day or every other day sigh
Answer
We have 5 kids and our home is pretty spotless, and yes it's lived in,not treated like a jungle gym. There is a difference. We don't restrict the kids from going into any part, but we do restrict what occurs in the rooms, in the house for that matter.
The kids are small so we eat breakfast and lunch in the kitchen and dinner in the dinning room. They aren't allowed to have toys all over. Aside from the nursery, We keep the baby's toys in ottomans in the great room and family room only. Running is for outside. They can run around on the lower level, some! Five and up, they clean their own rooms.
I run a Roomba vacuum over night in the great room where we tend to gather. We don't go to bed unless the kitchen is cleaned and we don't leave in the morning unless its picked up. We don't come downstairs in the morning with unmade beds. Five and up are responsible for cleaning their rooms.
Set some rules and a cleaning schedule.
