Writing paper sets for children

Has anyone seen any nice writing paper sets for children?

My Dc like writing letters to their overseas cousins, and I thought I would get them all a writing set for Christmas.

Mix of boys and girls. The sets I have seen were all mermaids, unicorns, pamper party, which wouldn't appeal to any of them.

I'm thinking of the sort that has a few sheets of decorative writing paper and envelopes, maybe some stickers and notecards, in a little folder.
Or failing that, maybe a nice set of notecards or postcards.

I'd like fun, child-friendly, colourful designs for the younger ones (7 and 9), that aren't just unicorns or princesses or football.
And more grown up but still fun for the teens.

Sostrene Grene, if you have one near you, you can’t order online, have a couple of sets I got for both my dc (6&10). They both like sending notes home to my mum.

Didn’t realise both sets didn’t come up on that, the other is a peach colour with a tiger at the top.

I’ve just bought some gorgeous sets from the works, cheap as chips too

I’ve had some bargains from Clinton’s that I use for thank you letters. Also it’s the kind of thing Paperchase would have.

I hadn't heard of Sostrene Grene but looks like we are nowhere near, so that's why.
I did try the Works but didn't find anything. Will give Paperchase a try.

Always worth checking TK Maxx - they always have random stationery items and I have bought many writing sets from there over the years. (My girls are avid letter writers to their friends overseas)

Also maybe do an online (Amazon) search for origami writing set. My DDs have had a few of those over the years and they have been very popular.

Some of the supermarkets have Harry Potter ones; definitely seen them in Sainsbury’s recently

These are the origami sets my DDs have. Not currently available on Amazon but looks like some of them are maybe available on NOTHS or other sites.

Aww, I want my children to like writing letters (they're a bit young and not currently keen writers) just so I can buy some of these. Those origami ones are so lovely.

Love the origami ones! They'd be perfect! I will try and hunt some of them down.
Djeco ones look nice too.

My dd loved her personalised writing paper from Mulberry Bush

Another vote for Djeco.
