 Topic: thank you gift
Posted: 16 April 2008 at 9:46pm |

I want to get a thank you gift for my mum and nana. basically while I studied and got my teaching diploma (which i graduate with in May), they babysat, picked up, dropped off, organised etc, and I want to say thanks. So any ideas what I could get? I was thinking about the massey grad bear - then saw it is $45 each, which i don't mind spending, just not on a stuffed toy

Make up a gift basket for each of them, with stuff that they will use?

I think that the grad bear is a great idea - mostly because it's special. They've helped you to become that bear as such 
The grad photo idea is a good one too!!
