I can definitely see your point. I suppose I could get clothes that I think might fit and give them the receipt so they can exchange it, but I'm at a loss for what toys they would like at that age. It's also been suggested to get them gift vouchers, but it would be nice if they had an actual thing they could unwrap I think. Maybe just nice snacky bits and sweet treats? But then you run into the problem with allergies and intolerances. Buying for older kids is hard!

Be careful with vouchers and gift cards, a lot of parents in these situations will take them and use it for themselves. It sucks, but I had to deal with it growing up. Same with games or anything that can be pawned off.
