present for DD's father

I need a present idea for my ex partner. I refuse to spend my hard earned money on him given he doesnt support her financially but I know it would upset her if she/I didn't get him anything for Christmas.
So if anyone has any home made gift ideas for things we/she could make. she is 4 by the way :) thanks in advance:o

  • there aren't any recent photos of the two of them, he moved to Cyprus at the beginning of the year and only recently moved back, so she only has contact via skype ( have tried to arrange contact but he has a habit of 'something came up'-itis) thats another story though. I'm not doing it for him I'm doing it for her. so crafty ideas would be good. she is very creative.
