Advice on birthday gift for 11y.o. girl
My niece turns 11 in a few weeks (OMG I feel so old, when did she grow
up??) and I have no idea what to get her. They live in PA so I don't
see them often so I don't know what she already has or what
specifically she's into. But, she's not a real girlie-girl, more of a
tomboy, and likes sports and anything outdoors.
What's
the coolest thing around for kids this age?? I try not to do video
games or computer games, she doesn't seem that into them.
Thanks!
Re: Advice on birthday gift for 11y.o. girl
I was going to suggest something to do with that "Hannah Montana" person as she seems to be big with the pre-teen crowd, but where your niece is into sports and a tom-boy, maybe that idea would not be for her! LOL!
I have a teenaged cousin who is a few years older than that (15) and she's very much into arts and crafts, so she typically likes any of those kits to make your own jewelry or scrapbooking supplies.......or gift cards to Hollister (where she LOVES to shop).
My niece also just turned 11 and she is sorta halfway b/t a kid still and a teen I guess the term is tween haha! So she still likes some games and "kiddish" stuff, but then likes hip clothes and some hip music! I know she is into the Webkins craze too! She has an iPod so iTunes cards are always welcome for her. I got her a CD and a cute outfit(read "soooo cool Auntie!" it's what I live to hear haha!)
Some of the things on her list when I asked were...
CD's(I got her Jordan Sparks, one of her picks...the rest on her list are below taken straight from her email to me LMAO!)
Carrie Underwood Carnival Ride, Natasha Bettingfield cd with Pocket full of sunshine, Disney Mania 6, Minute Men, Vanessa Hudgens
Clothes(Limited Too, Old Navy, Aeropostale, American Eagle), Earrings, other jewelry.
Good Luck hope that mighta helped a teensy bit!
