Hi there,

I need to buy a gift for an 11 year old girl. The budget is £15 - £20 but I would rather stick to £15 really.

She doesn't have a phone. Doesn't wear make up or anything like that. She is quite an innocent 11 year old if you now what I mean.

The kids at my class seem to love everything smiggle, but they are younger - 8/9. If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it.

Cheers!

We have the Klutz Clay Charms book which is very good too.

My 11 year old loves smiggle-or vouchers she can spend on whatever she likes...

Lush boxes :)

Good quality felt tips and art stuff? Nice pyjamas? Latest Now CD? Fairy lights or fluffy snuggle blanket for her bedroom?
But, my DD's would most love the cash as they love shopping and picking their own things, so they get double the joy!

I have an innocent 10 nearly 11 year old.
She likes all things crafty. Candle making kit and science experiments have been great successes.
She would love CDS (compilation like Now albums) or book vouchers.
She likes bath bombs or funky shirts.
When she had some money to spend she chose one of the adult colouring books and a good set of pens which she has used quite a lot.
She would be pleased with any kind of activity vouchers cinema etc.

These are all great ideas. Thanks so much! I will investigate all of them. Does anyone know how to get free p and p from smiggle?

You might want to see the Smiggle thread in chat. They get over Smiggle pdq and are then quite derisory about it. I'd check if she's still into it.

Ok. Will check out smiggle interest before buying anything.

My 11 year old would not be interested In smuggle as its babyish, for here/round here. She would like mystery books, fimo type modelling clay, iTunes voucher, necklace, swig stuff, bath stuff i.e. Bath lpetals, bath bombs. Good luck

Pretty sure if you sign up to smiggle you get 20% off your first order.

'Zoella' is a really popular brand with this age range. I've just bought my 11 year old niece some of her stuff for Xmas

My 10 year old got her first box of lush bath bombs recently and loved it.

There's a fab 2 way sequin emoji top in primark that I reckon would be a hit.

The new David Walliams book? The game Tenzi? A mermaid blanket?
