    When mine leave I usually make a photo album for them, sometime snapfish or photo-box have them on offer, if not I do my own. Up until now they have been appreciated by all.

    Depending on the age I usually buy a nice book and write something in it. Or a mini photo album as a memory of time with myself and other mindees - with permission from other parents of course

    Usually have a little leaving tea with cake too I try and keep it upbeat cos I am often close to (or in) tears
    Happy to be back with the Greenies

    The eleven year old I had had a bag of yummy stuff when he left Though he was about to go on holiday with his brother and had a rubbish time over the last few months. He was thrilled!
