Ok, so this is obviously a massively privileged problem. Basically, a relative who we will be seeing over Christmas has sent £50 each per child with which to buy them a present. The relative will be there when presents are opened when we all get together on boxing day and I think they would like to see what the money was spent on and the children enjoying the gift. This makes me lean towards getting them an actual present rather than saving it, using it for an outing, etc. The thing is that they don't really need anything. They aren't demanding children, had fairly modest requests when asked what they would like and will get the things they asked for and, from various relatives, they will also get some things they haven't asked for! Does anyone have any ideas what to get? A joint present is also perfectly acceptable - they are girls aged 5 and 7 - both quite mature and good readers but easily frightened (most DVDs are out!). They have and enjoy sylvanians, vintage my little ponies and Polly pockets. The younger one loves Frozen but we don't need any more Frozen stuff! Thanks for any ideas you might have...
