My mom works at a day care and they always make cute crafts involving the baby. Last year she made x-mas bulbs with the babys hand prints. I thought it was cute. But if you dont think they would be into it, maybe get them a gift set, like maybe a liquor one. or make cookies in a jar. Just take all the ingreidents and put it in a big jar, and then put the recipe on the jar, its a cute idea i think  |

| Maybe a calander with photos of the kids. I guess depending on the age of the kids and what the parents are interested in, you could make personalised things like bookmarks, magnets, photo frames or paperweights, something they would use at work (if they work). Or bake biscuits or make homemade chocolates together. |

| i think you should do something involving photos of the kids. -cards: buy different materials with fun and unique textures/colors to incorporate into the cards. Michael's is so helpful to me when i'm looking for seasonal craft supplies. have them write a card with all their love and incorporate the picture in the card; decorate it with glitter, ribbon, paint.. etc. -photo frames: there are kinds that are cheaper looking, which is fine, and there are nicer-looking ones. decorate with ribbons, garland, metallic things.. there are so many possibilties! :)good luck! |

| you can make hand prints for them. craft stores sell the kits to do it, or do some baking for them or get a craft set to make things like candles or soaps if the kids are old enough to help with something like that. or take pictures of the kids doing a bunch of different things and make a scrap book. I also have instructions on how to make a photo album that you can the kids can do together to fill with pictures of them. you can email me if you want to know how. I also love this website for craft ideas. maybe you can find something there too. www.decoart.com |
