candles in baby food jars and matching decorated matchboxes
decorated altoid tins filled with a beaded bracelet "kit" -- put all the pieces together in the tin and let them make their own
little cinnamon ornaments (like the cinnamon magnets at http://www.homeofthesampler.com)
diy-ed sachets or eye pillow thingies
cello bags filled with candy
little felt stuffed animals
pins and 1" buttons
granted, I'm cribbing from stuff I'm doing this year for my sibs, who are all young-ish girls, so I'm not sure how much that helps.

jude already has a little beaded bracelet with a femo penguin in the center that he wears often but i wanted to add a little variety to his collection. the bracelet was made with the semi-stretchy clear twiney stuff (clearly, i have no idea what it is!) and the girl that made it burnt the ends together with some sort of baby-jewelry-makin' contraption so it can't come apart -- unless he chews through it but luckily the little dude has yet to srout teeth. i wan't to make some sort of of cuff hippy style but i don't know what kind of materials would be best considering it'll surely end up in his mouth...
