| Find out from their parents what they like. So many people give engraved placards or things like that, but kids don't care about that stuff. We gave our ring bearer, 5 at the time, a large ant farm and bug kit - he was thrilled and set up the ant farm the very next day! My niece was 3 so we gave her a dress up trunk with dresses, shoes, feather boas, etc from the store for about $20. |

| here's an idea.dress the girls up as a flower thats in your buquet,and dress the boy up as a big pillow with the rings tied to his chest,or ontop of his head.just because it's a solem event doesnt mean it cant be funny! |

| A 10 yr old girl is a little too old to be a flower girl - she is more of a junior bridesmaid age range. The ring bearer will probably enjoy some sort of video game (you can get them at Wal-mart of Target for under $15) and the girls will like more creative things - coloring books for the younger one and something a little more in depth for the older one. |

| We spoke to the parents of our flower girl and ring bearer and got them both a toy that they could play with during the rehearsal to keep them entertained (ages 5 and 7). Also I bought them each a book since I am a teacher. I got my flower girl a book called "Flower Girl" I also got them both a keepsake for the day, they got their pictures taken and I sent them to them in really nice frames. |

| Maybe get your flower girl(s) a pendant with a flower on it, as it is a keepsake from your wedding that they can keep as they grow up.I'm at a loss on the ring bearer gift... I'm trying to figure that one out, myself! |

| Remember, they are children, and they'll pick fun over sentimental most any day! If they are into Barbie, there are many bride barbie and barbie stamper or activity sets. A Bride dress up may be fun for the little girl. Kids, including boys, enjoy the markers that only write on the special paper, and you don't have to worry about it getting on their clothes if they use it to keep busy the day of the wedding or during the rehersal. A goft certificate to a play place, like Chuck E Cheese, Build A Bear, or local skate or putt putt place would be good. They little girls may like fun jewelery. Boys love matchcar cars and trucks! |

| Well, I gave my flower girl a necklace.But the ring bearer gifts were the neatest- we took a baseball card/ball holder and put a ball signed by us (bride and groom) in it. It said "Owen, Your our Superstar, Love Matt and Alicia" with our signatures. Then you take a picture of the little boy and have it made into a baseball card (online, it only costs $5). You can even have a little plaque made to attach to it that says their name. It was really cute and unique. |

| For my wedding the ringbearers were 5 & 6 and my flower girl was 4. I bought the boys cheap 35mm cameras, batteries & a few rolls of film. In total it only cost me around $20 and they absolutely loved them!! You could also toss in a small photo album with it if you wanted. They posed their toys and took pictures of them, pictures of each other and their family and let me tell you, they had some of the best shots from my wedding reception!! They were small and able to sneak in front of people to get the best pictures! I checked with their mom first though to make sure she would be willing to get the pictures developed. I bought my flowergirl lipgloss and a book about being a flower girl. |
