I am on holiday over Christmas. My niece and nephew live abroad and are coming back to their English home on Christmas Eve. I therefore need to post them a present that will fit through their letterbox ready for their arrival. Happy to send a gift voucher, but age 6 and 9 I’d like them to have something fun to open too! Any ideas?

I have a 6 and 9 year old!

Pokemon cards
Puzzle books (mazes and word searches v popular)
Books (The Snowman, The Christmasaurus. The 6 yr old loves Tom Gates. New David Walliams one?)
Card game (UNO, Jumbalup, top trumps?)

9yo, I’d buy a “large letter” postage box, head to hobbycraft or the range and buy some little lovely crafty bits that fit into it. I sometimes buy a box from Lollipop box club. The boxes fit through the letterbox and contain lots of goodies a 9yo would love, not sure they’d do something as a one off, but may be worth asking as they sell add-on bits to their kits

For the 6yo, Pokemon cards

Books and there’s loads of good card games eg uno, dobble, exploding kittens that would fit through a letterbox.
