What about a memory book for them or cd of photos with a backing track small to pack but very personal for them to keep

We would buy a memory stick and put photos etc on it of theri time with you. Nice and easy to pack too !:) Bet you will miss them :(

i had mindees who moved to new zealand!

i made them a photoboook on truprint with photos of the children from when they started, to when they left, with little captions etc on the pages.

they all loved it.

when we moved ( ok, only 260 miles, but still .... ) my friend bought my children little teddies with tshirts on, that had a photo of my child with her child on. sooooo sweet and much loved here. not sure where she got them from though. sorry x

I have done the photobooks for mindee's when they have moved on and they have always been appreciated. I think you can get teddies with personalised t-shirts from Vistaprint :)

when I've had friends move overseas who lived here in london I got them a black and white print of a famous london scene (s). maybe a nice print of where they lived to remind them?
