along the same lines...there are those ceramic places where you (and the kids) can go and paint mugs or all kinds of different bisques. They fire it for you. Also, one year the kids and I picked out pictures of them and made a small scrapbook. I'm not the crafty sort so I did it thru picaboo.com, but the kids could do there own pages. I know there are some pretty cheap scrapbook kits out there. My daughter got one for Christmas.
