Maybe those are a bit "old" but they are novel.  I put in the Trustpilot review to show the company seems real.  From reviews it seems like it might be worth buying a few cards at a time to save shipping.

It takes a while, but I think eventually one does appreciate older relatives for making an effort.  Steady contact is the trick.

My great-grandma would usually send me $10 but once she sent me a feather with a little note and it really touched me.  I rarely saw her but I knew she wanted to make a connection.  I still have it.  Another great-aunt was a watercolor hobbyist.  She would send bookmarks with her art on it.  I would suggest that at some point you write each kid a letter with some memories (maybe of their dad) that tell them something about you and the family.  Then they might remember more about you.[/quote]

They are cute but my kids will open a card and look at it for a minute and that's it.  If in doubt, send an amazon gift card as they can get almost anything or buy other gift cards.

For the 12 year old, I'd get some Nike/Adidas/UA clothing - hoodies especially (medium men's if he's not big, large if he is) or backpack/lunchbox or new soccer/basket balls. [/quote]
