Ideas for Gifts from Kids to Grandparents

Both sets of grandparents 'don't want anything for christmas' but I'd like to get them something 'from the toddler'. Last year I did canvas photo prints which went down well, but I'm not sure what to get this year. Toddler's 1.5 so not up to much craft related and a lot of the photo type presents I've seen seem a bit naff.

Any ideas for non-naff photo presents or other ideas?

We have done photo calendars before. Not all pictures of the kids, but of various occasions over the years.

We do photo calendars, assorted pictures of the whole family (not just DS) from throughout the year.

This year i have done salt dough hand prints which are then painted to look like father christmas, very easy to do. Sorry i'm on phone & cant link but will fin it if you want it.

Other things could be favourite chocolate/biscuits, best Grandad/Gandma socks, a cd of music they like, small token gifts.

We did plates with handprints in one of those pottery paint shops. You can do all sorts from Christmas decs to fruitbowls.
Or i've bought photo print canvas shopping bags before.

Not sure if you want child made gifts or nit, if not - I'd go the hamper route, doesnt have to be large, a nice package of luxury type food stuff.

'Not' !!! Don't give them 'nits' obviously - although it would be memorable.

Shortbread biscuits. The kids can make them any shape they like.

DH and I are delighted with anything that says grandma or grandad on it - mugs, socks, plaques etc.

Last year DD got a photo frame engraved 'me and my grandad' above photo and 'love xxx' below. We realised we didn't have a suitable photo so I managed to get a snap on my phone and printed it - it's not a great photo but DH wouldn't swap it for the world.

Santa hands are lovely. Will be making one with DGD for her Mum & Dad.

Mine get a photo gift, has been calendar, mouse mat and canvas so far. This year it is a mug.

How about a salt dough decoration for the tree.

My SF drinks whiskey so this year he is getting a bottle of grouse with a personalised label (that bit is free).
