What about Christmas ornaments? You could cut any shape - tree, snowman, angel, ball, etc... out of wool (or whatever), from a dark color, then cut the same shape only a little smaller in a lighter Christmasy color (two per shape) for front and back. Glue in place and, if u want or have time, with pearle cotton thread, buttonhole stitch around the top shape onto the background on both sides; then, you could draw (with a perm. pen, jelly pen, or glue and glitter, ) each of their names. The kids would like seeing their names on the tree and so would the parents!
It's simple and fast; you could do it while your little one is napping It really is a lot more simple than it seems, and once u get going, it's fast. You could leave off the stitching and draw it on with pens, also, to save time and energy.

She may like the "mug rugs?" Or maybe a pillow of her favor fabric; or a rag quilt? or just some blocks sewn together and then tied for a lap quilt for her sofa?
