    What abourt a movie hamper. Take advantage of the £1 ones on the cereal packets at the moment.

    The one thing I would say about doing a joint one for kids is perhaps wrap a few of the items individually in differant coloured paper(eg.for the girls pink and cream or two shades of pink) before puting in a hamper, Then it is easier all round to divide on opening up!

    Yep, I'd agree with that - wine for the parents, juices/fizzies (depending on parents outlook!) for the kids. £1 Play.com DVDs (on Nestle cereal packets) - the selection is here: http://www.play.com/nestle

    Popcorn, popcorn buckets, sweets etc
