Your suggestions for girls aged 8, 10, 13

[twinterror]

Hi my own girls are aged 3, need suggestions for godchildren/nieces aged 8, 10 and 13 preferably around the £10 - £15 mark. I often buy vouchers (not for the 8 year old) or a nice hat or similar from monsoon but if someone can suggest something more imaginitiave that would be great. None of them are 'girly' girls

Huge box of art stuff to share?

Box full of icing, sprinkles, cupcake cases etc plus a wooden spoon and apron each?

Cross stitch sets? Liberty sell tiny, cute ones with things like London taxis or phone boxes on.

Nice mug each (Cath Kidston ones are pretty but quite cheap) with sachets of hot choc, marshmallows, flakes?

'Posh' gel pens and a notebook from Paperchase?

For the thirteen year old, how about a classic book like Jane Eyre or Pride And Prejudice or Rebecca - with a nice book mark and a copy of the DVD version of the same book?

Teenagers want cash. Or iTunes vouchers.

Depends a lot on what they're into - have a look at hawkinsbazaar (google it), they have tons of interesting, non run ofthe mill stuff.

Socks. seriously.

My dds really like to get a pack of next socks, they have some good designs. Some places sell socks with toes - dd1 loves her pair. Or get a couple of long groovy pairs that the girls can mix and match. Odd socks are de rigeur in some places.

Yes, fancy stationery always a good bet.

Top quality pens for school.

Accessorize have a great range of small inexpensive but groovily designed purses.

Yes to socks - my dds always see funky socks as a treat (but would hate toe socks - this depends on the child!).

yes, I would hate toe socks.

Breo watches - all sorts of funky colours and only £10

Thanks so much for the great ideas, I love them all, breo watches fantastic suggestion, love the socks, art box and cupcake-fest making and will check out hawkins and accessorise
