When my H2B and I get married he will also be becoming step dad to my 3 children who all love and adore him (thankfully!) We (me and the kids) thought it might be a nice idea if they gave him a special present at the reception to welcome him into the family but we have no idea what. I was going to get him a tankard engraved with our wedding date etc on but that is just from me as he collects them. Any thoughts as to what the kids could give him? Their ages will be 16,18 and 20 so nothing too 'kiddish'!

That's really sweet. How about something that's his for the house - like, like, like....nope nothing sensible coming to me. Or if he has hobbies something for those? x

How about something you can do as a family?

It would not cost £50, but perhaps you could put a nice picture of you all in a frame and give it to him and then put up in your home? Or have a photo put onto one of those canvas things, and have hanging up? x

...or you can make books of photos you choose in so you could have some with the kids as babies and then have some other photos with you all in to show the new family? Apple do them, and I'm sure other places do too.

I am going to say photo too you could get an engraved frame and its something he can keep. Photo books are great too I had one as a xmas pressent love it sooo much, you can put captions with the photo's. I'll put the name of the company mine is from on your wall.

We are beginning to think that it might be nice for them to give him the tankard..... and I'll get him Mr & Mrs t-shirts for the honeymoon!
