From the given, 8 gifts are to be equally distributed among 4 children.

Thus, the number of ways is given by,

\begin{aligned} &\frac{8 !}{2 ! \times 2 ! \times 2 ! \times 2 !}=28 \times 90\\ &\frac{8 !}{2 ! \times 2 ! \times 2 ! \times 2 !}=2520 \end{aligned}

Therefore, the total number of ways the gifts are distributed is 2520.
