what is your budget? maybe a book (a comic for example) a DVD or something you consider tipically from your country
2 :
just bring a couple of white flags, they will love them and will come in handy the next time the germans pay a quick vist..
3 :
You can give him a baseball cap of the team of the place you come from (if you come from USA of course).
4 :
Save your $$ (you'll need to bc things in France are VERY expensive, even everyday items). Give the family a family gift-- large jar/can of macademia nuts (noisettes Australiennes in France). They will think that you spent a fortune bc in France, macademias are very expense and are sold in boxes the size of cigarette packs (no such thing as large jars. Part of growing up is learning things like "bang for the buck." Unless, you are Blair Waldorf and have unlimited income. If you are from the UK, get them some Lessiter's or Thornton's chocolates (difficult if not impossible to find in France). If you want to give individual gifts, get the son a sweatshirt with a sports team logo. Easy to fit and not readily available in France. If in the US, the SA Spurs might work bc Tony Parker is from France and well known even by French ppl who do not follow bb in the US.
