How about creating one of those Mason jars that include all the ingredients for a cookie or cake? They are good eye candy, they take up a lot of room and they are really fun to put together with the kids.

What about squeeze bottles for frosting, sucker sticks for making cookie pops, etc.

How about some fun sprinkles or little cookie decoration type things?

an apron?

monogrammed oven pads/mitts?

Or you could have your kids write out their favorite cookies recipes or memories of baking with the grandparents... and put them in an album?

This is what I made for a gift basket auction for a DH's previous boss, who's daughter was going through cancer treatments and they were raising money...
