I and my family are going to Kenya in a few weeks to visit my H's family. While we are there we will be visiting an American missionary family that is based in Nairobi that we know and they have 3 girls, 10, 7 and 5. I have a 4.5 year old so I won't have a problem figuring out what to get their 5 year old, but I'm looking for gifts for the older two. What would be popular for that age group? They haven't been back to the US in a few years.

My in-laws were missionaries and we've visited a couple different missionaries on the field. Check and see if there are any food items they might want; some things are really hard to get in other countries and having it can make things a lot easier for them or make it feel more like home. Some friends of ours couldn't find peanut butter where they lived so we took them a couple of jars. It was nothing fancy, but they really appreciated it. The girls might appreciate getting some type of candy or treat that they can't get overseas.
