These are simply ideas or things I know would be useful. If there is something else you'd rather get for the kids that's fine.

Aidan:
- Toy cars
- Toy airplanes
- iTunes gift card - These are great and quite the life saver. I use them to buy tv shows and movies for Aidan when we travel.
- Aidan loves these movies but our copies are in Japanese, English versions would be much appreciated:
My Neighbor Tortoro, Porco Rosso,Ponyo(Thanks Grandma and Aunt Erin for the videos, he LOVES them.) - Zoobles - Aidan got one in a Happy Meal and he loves it. I've looked into them and there are several different types. The plain ones that come in a single pack are what he would enjoy the most. The type of animal doesn't matter. He just likes that they pop open or can turn into a ball. He doesn't need a play set or anything like that, just what comes in the package is fine.
- Size 3T or 4T shorts
- We can always use more t-shirts, he needs a 4T for tops. Take a look at the neck and make sure it can get around his pumpkin head. Really, I'm not kidding, some tops fit fine once they're on but getting them on is a struggle. I worry that one day he'll lose his ears.
- White athletic socks. Not a cool gift, but I can't find them here. I can find white dress socks and colored athletic socks that disintegrate after one wash, but not plain, sturdy white socks.
- Aidan really enjoys shows with singing in it, like The Wonderpets, Dora, and Sesame Street. If you know of anything similar to this that you think he might like please let us know. We have two seasons of The Wonderpets memorized and would be grateful for a new show.
This list really depends on when you'll be giving her the gift. Right now she doesn't really need anything but clothes, but she'll be almost one when we get home this summer and she'll be into toys by then.
- Pajamas: 3-6 months, 6-9 months, 9-12 months
- Clothing: 3-6 months, 6-9 months, 9-12 months
- Door muff - this is pretty clever. I like it with gray fabric and yellow ribbon.
