tbh, I have no idea how to get on any other page so thought I'd try on here anyway! My twin nephews live in Australia and will be 7 in October and I haven't got a clue what to buy them - any ideas? I don't really know them, as I haven't seen them since they were 3 and my brother says he doesn't know what to get (my own boys are a lot older and I can't think what they liked when they were 7!, even if it was relevent)

Honestly I'd Paypal them some money.

IME kids that age are normally saving up for something or other so would probably appreciate it.

Hi, I've just spotted this and thought I'd tell you that I'm just about to send some really ace hand made funky monster slippers to my friend's kids in Sydney who are 7, 3 and 1. www.naughtymonsters.com/
My son has a pair and loves them! He also has a hoodie and toy, but seeing as the slippers are so light I thought they'd be a good pressie to send. Something different Grin

I agree with Worra. Children love money!

I have just posted Pocket kites to two boys in Aus, nice and light and about to be spring time there so will hopefully go down well.

Ask your brother what they are interested in (football, street dancing, playing the violin etc) and then look on Amazon for something. I did this for a cousin and he was sooo pleased with his DVD and book.
