Mind if I add a gift that small kids enjoy? I give little ones an album of pictures of themselves and of family and pets and friends.

You can do this online or you can put the pictures in an inexpensive and small album from a store. The little ones love having a picture book of people they know and it helps them learn names of people they may not see very often.

Last June I gave a little "first year" album to a one-year old, just simple pictures I had taken at my house during the year. I gave one to her to play with and one to her parents to keep for her when she is older. She just loves that book and points out the baby, our dog, me, etc.

Thanks Laurie -- that's a great idea.I only think to give that to adults and why wouldn't kids think it's just as special... maybe be even MORE pleased with it! Parents too.

I did this with leftover pictures when my girls were little and they loved it. No family lives here in SD, so they could see their own pictures of family whenever they wanted to. Every child I've given this gift to has enjoyed it, even when it's just pictures of them! After all, when you are a kid it really is all about you!
