Film Hamper

[ilovelamp82]

I'm going to make a film hamper for my niece who is 11. I was thinking of putting popcorn maker,a couple of DVD's and a couple of cinema vouchers in there.

Does anyone have any film suggestions for films for and 11 year old girl?

A netflix subscription?

They tried Netflix before but they live in the middle of nowhere and so their internet connection is ridiculously slow unfortunately.

What sort of thing does she like? Music/dance? Superheroes/marvel? Fantasy? Girly?

She used to like High School Music and things like that. Not so much superheroes/marvel. Preferably maybe something funny. Or, I would quite like something along the lines of Clueless (but she already has that).

It's unfortunately been a long time since I was an 11 year old girl and I'm a bit out of the loop.

Great idea! I would definitely go retro. Ferris Bueller and Bill and Ted

A jar layered with posh hot chocolate, marshmallows and m&ms/sprinkles is pretty and easy to do.

I've never watched Ferris Bueller myself, so I'll pick that up. And Bill and Ted's is a great idea :)

Mama Mia?

There's a Disney film called 'teen beach movie' which is relatively new. I haven't seen it but my ten year old enjoyed it.

What about the bring it on's or step up/save the last dance/honey type.films?

Other than that.... Confessions of a teenage drama queen? Quite 11 yo friendly, or mean girls. Bridesmaids.might be a bit old, but possibly dirty dancing. It's been a while.since.I was 11 the princess diaries are a possibility, or diary of a wimpy kid?

If she is a young 11 maybe narnia films?

There are a couple called band something with Vanessa.huygens and pitch perfect which are along hsm lines

Glee - not a film but my 2 DDs (and me) live it.

angus thongs and perfect snogging is a great film

13 Going On Thirty

I agree that Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging is a good choice.

I have also recently introduced Fly Away Home and Labyrinth to a 10, 12 and 13 year old, and they have all liked them..

Hth

One last suggestion - Penelope.

Just to say that Bridesmaids is unsuitable imo. I think it is a 15 if not an 18. My 15 yr old wouldnt want to watch it (but her godmother and I found it funny.)

maleficent and the great and powerful oz?
