Do you have that niece or nephew that is getting out of their toddler stage?  Maybe you have more than one.  The best gifts that will make you remembered for Christmas are Christmas books.

Particularly I remember sitting down and continuously reading or playing with a pop-up Night Before Christmas Book. (Click the link to see it at Amazon.com)

The key thing here is to inscribe a personal message inside the front cover.  Something like...
"To my special nephew.  May Christmas always have a place in your heart. Love Aunt Tina."
