    Question Gifts for pre-teens?

    Our very distanced family is getting together for Christmas. I have not seen my brothers or their kids in 5 years. I'd like to get the kids some small gifts (something we can take in our suitcase on the plane). What do you suggest for:

    6 yo boy
    7 yo girl
    9 yo girl
    11 yo girl

    None of them want for anything, especially toys. I was thinking of making up small gift bags with some holiday candies and some small things. Maybe some play jewelry for the girls, or little games. What do you think is appropriate for their ages? When I was 7 I was thrilled with my new pocket-sized FM radio, but I don't think something like that will cut it these days.

    If you think they have ipods......you can get them an itunes gift card (the older ones, anyway) - and then they can pick the music they want themselves (and it packs well!)
