Birthdays and Christmas, being prepared!

[Darny]

Right, hit me with your ideas for birthdays and Christmas, looking at Christmas pressies for the cousins, they will be:

Family 1 - 7yrs girl, 4yrs boy, 2.5yrs boy, new baby unknown sex
Family 2 - 6mth baby girl

and my two - 5yrs boy, 3yrs girl

We don't do adult presents.

I also need birthday and Christmas pressie ideas for my big girls - 14yrs and 17yrs, no idea what they like these days.

I'm thinking about a fort kit for family 1 - would be a group pressie they could all use (we usually do group presents), also thinking of making one each for my kids for Christmas.

I want to start getting stuff organised now, before the big rush of stuff that always derails my best intentions!

So you want more craft ideas rather than going to the shops and purchasing ideas?

14 and 17 year old could do pharmacy vouchers, makeup, music of some sort, time to take them shopping maybe?

Last year I crocheted the older kids small cell phone bags with flap.

Remind me to take a photo for you when I find my camera.
