So what shall I buy dd nearly 12?

[insanityscratching]

She has a laptop, ipod, phone, puppy She's quite young for her age and has a room (or two) full of toys that she hasn't really played with much this year. She likes minecraft, Movie Star Planet, Beano,dogs. She isn't interested in clothes, make up or hair styling. She's not at all sporty, doesn't need a bike or scooter (she has them gathering dust) doesn't like theme parks or anything like that so season passes aren't an option.

I do 3 presents: one she needs, one she wants and a surprise.
She wants an ipod/mp3.
She needs some trainers.
The surprise is a kindle.

For her birthday her first perfume was a hit as well.

The stocking will have sweets and bits from Muji.
Hope that helps.

Does she like any particular music?

My dd likes manga so I'm getting her some good quality drawing things and some books

Oh she sings, all the time, anything from opera to Miley Cyrus maybe I could look at concert tickets so that's an idea thank you.

Dd1 almost 11 will be getting a laptop or kindle ( can't decide which to get ), she will also get a onesie, lush bath bombs, pokemon game for her DS, some kind of cuddly toy to add to he collection ( maybe build a bear ), maybe a board game and some clothes ( even though she doesn't like clothes ). Oh, she also likes books so will see what books are on offer nearer Christmas.

Concert tickets are a great idea, karaoke machine? Disco ball for her room? Tv for her room? Wall art for her room?

Can you book puppy training classes for her and the pup (though that would have to be when the puppy needs them so would be early )

My DD is 12 (and loves make-up. toiletries, hair stuff, earrings)

We book her and DS (who is nearly 15) A Young Driver lesson twice a year (they need to be 11yo+ and 5' tall or more).
I should be on commission for YD

Converse or Vans

DD likes iPhone covers
Things from 'Blott' (rubbers, pens etc)
Yankee Candles
Pyjamas

She loves Burts Bees
Nail polish

She's had her eyebrows threaded (so we'll be doing that again when they need done)

Gift card for New Look/H&M/Primark

I got my dd (12) one of these

drawing board and pens, pastels, paper etc
perfume (Harajuku)
Manga books
new covers for her phone - some fab ones here
bath bombs
socks
purple doc martens

Wreck it journal is what dd and all her friends want.

Dd has a leather pandora bracelet so I'll be buying her a charm for that.

Perfume
Some sort of smelly set
Harry Potter jumper (ebay)
Cross over bag
Ipad & accessories
Jack wills bits
Onesie
Swimming accessories

I'm lucky I find dd so easy to buy for.
It's Dss I have the most trouble for.

Wow lots of great ideas, thank you, maybe it won't be too difficult after all. She would love a onesie and the phone covers are great, we have to always buy a load of Lush products, I forgot about Blott she likes those too. She's too short for driving experience but that's one to bear in mind, some nice art stuff is also something I think she'd like. I'll look into classes for her and Eric the dog and purple Doc Martens she'd approve of.
I'd best get started on the shopping then.

My DD is dog mad and has had dog classes for birthdays in the past. Here I got her to make a list of things your dd might like-

Dicky Bag (its for dog poo)
Victoria Stilwell books
Mary Ray books
at home agility kit
pet london flashing collar and lead
junior kennel club membership
kyjen hide a squirrel
dodo book of the pet
tillymint dog designs custom harness

not sure how dog mad your dd is but some of those might be relevant :)
