Umm, I need some help please.
I have one wee neice who we brought a charm bracelet for when she was born and we now buy her a charm every birthday and will do until she is 21. My SIL is now pregnant with her second. I now need ideas incase this ones a boy so I can do something similar. All the girls will get the same thing and all the boys will get the same thing - thought this was easy as they are a family that "add" things up so easier to do the same for the whole side - also its a nice keepsake to have. With our DS we brought him a tool book when he was born and we are buying a tool for him every birthday so by the time he is 21 he will have a full kit of good quality tools. I don't want to do this with nephews tho as too expensive but it gives you an example of what I am after. -------------

I love the tool idea!! definately too expensive, like you said, for the nephews though...
what sort of tools did you start out with - ie: grown-up tools right from the beginning or stuff they could use as kids? sorry - i'm not much help! ------------- Anita Mum to Cian (Aug 08), Josh (Jun 10) http://lilypie.com">

Well, he only has the tool box at the mo but yip, we are doing grown up tools. I am guessing we will start with the basics - a hammer! -------------
