What a lovely idea! A print out of your family tree would be great for them. |

Special greetings cards, photos of houses that you or they have lived in, pictures of place of birth, if different from above, Wrapping paper from special presents..... It's surprising how this 'dates'. Pressed flowers from your garden or leaves from a tree or bush. Newspaper cuttings for personal, local or national events. ....I might add a few more later. Gwyn |

Lots of stories about how their parents behaved when they were children and teenagers. I loved it when my nan told me tales about my mum when she was young. Also copies of photos addresses and anecdotes about the oldest relatives you remember, we would all love to have these in our trees, but rarely find them! |

Memories of your childhood and schooldays, a school or baby photo of you. A small souvenir/photo or postcard from any holidays you have been on. Hope you have nice big boxes, Joyce, for all the ideas you're getting!! Jay |
