    2- BOY WILL BE 5
    3- GIRL WILL BE 5

    A torch? You can get some cheap ones and some fun ones - like Morrisons for £1.00 with Disney characters or wind up ones that are animals. Maybe also a book or something as well so it doesn't look completely cheap but kids love torches!

    Books, depends what you want to spend, I normally spend around £5 and got 2 of my mindee's books for £4.00 each

    Zoobles for the 5 year old girl? My DD loves them (she's 7 but the younger ones are really getting into them) you can get them in Tesco for £6

    maybe a personalised puzzle for the youngest http://www.hometimecrafts.co.uk/Chil...-Name-Boy.html
    I often fall back on books for older children - and write a personal message in the front.
