Pay special attention to the toy aisle and the girls winter apparel aisle. You can get the girls cute sweaters or mittens and games or dolls to play with. Trust me, once you are in the store, knowing what to get will be so much easier! Homemade baked goods or Christmas candy are always wonderful gifts to receive as well. Since the couple are newlyweds, they might not have a huge collection of Christmas ornaments or decorations. Nobody ever has enough Christmas decorations. If they don't have a wreath on their front door get them one of those! You'll probably find so many things you want to get you won't be able to get everything. Good luck. :) [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]

How about a craft or activity for them to be a part of the whole thing? The parents would LOVE for you to give a gift of your time to the girls...maybe free babysitting so the parents can go shopping or out to lunch? The girls get to play with you and you can bring a different toy each time to play with or paint toenails or a game the girls like. Time is the best gift!
