Flower Girl / Ring Bearer Gift

frosen

Hi - my wedding is in 5 short weeks and I need some good ideas on a gift for my flower girl (4 1/2 years old) and my ring bearer (6 1/2) - has anyone done anything cute?

we only had a FG --- we got her a personalized jewelry box and she got a kid version of some of the BM gifts --- a smaller LL Bean boat tote, flip flops and a cute jacket for outside pics to wear over her dress

she also got lots of activity gifts to keep her busy at the reception including our personalized wedding coloring book, it was on her seat when she arrived - and it was a lifesaver for her parents during dinner

EDIT: she's 4

Where did you get the jewlery box?  Did you order it online?

yes, I ordered online from Pottery Barn kids

EDIT: here's the link for it - totally adorable...GL!

My FG & RB are the same age and I've been wondering, too! I got this super-cute little engraved bracelet for the FG (4) from Things Remembered:  http://tinyurl.com/2akgl8t

And it came with a free keepsake box that can also be engraved...I think it will be perfect.

I'm at a TOTAL loss about what to do for my 6yr-old ring bearer though...it's tough to find something that will be somewhat sentimental but still be interesting/enjoyable for him.  Love to hear if anyone else has ideas!

And like a PP said, I also bought a whole bunch of stuff from the dollar bins at Michael's to keep them occupied during the reception - coloring/sticker books, I Spy games, etc.

Yes - I just ordered a bracelet from Etsy and the jewlery box from Pottery Barn that was reccomended by Boston Bride but I am totally stuck for my ring bearer... really any suggestions are appreciated!!

It wasn't for a ring bearer gift but we got my nephew a personalized football bank.  He really liked it. 
My sister got her son(he was almost 8 at the time) a personlized red sox bat and ball as a ring bearer gift.

I got the little girls bags with their initials and filled it with flip flops for the wedding , jewelry, and a photo album. We also paid for their dresses and will pay for their hair

RB- We got him a baseball bat engraved with his name. His room is done with a base ball theme so it will be cute to put up in a shelf and we'll also get a case for it.. We also are paying for the shirt , tie and shoes to go with the tux he already has

mine are much younger, under 2 but im getting them a cool toy and giving it to them the day of to keep them occupied at the reception....I hope it works
i might get them something small and personalised also, but are too young to really appreciate things....

BostonGirl82- I'll ask my sister where she got them.  He really loved them.

We had 3 FG that were younger 2 yrs. We gave them a bag full of activity things and we gave them a hankie with a poem similar to this one.

There are a ton of poems on the web, or you could create one yourself.
