My daughter also has her birthday in January so I like to start planning early for Xmas and her birthday. She's had all the usual stuff - bike, heelys and an iPod in recent years. She enjoys crafting but we have masses of stuff already! Any ideas gratefully received.

Mine love harry potter and gift cards for h&m.
I've also bought tickets in previous years to shows or sports events eg world championship of their favourite sports or a West end show.

My eldest is the same
As your daughter. She's ten now. 11 in January. She's all about toiletrie, make up bah stuff. Straighteners clothes

Yes my daughter does like hair and make up too!! I'm trying to think of alternatives to some of the "experiences" we got her last year.

Lego
Harley Quinn doll (yes, she still wants a doll!)
More Jacqueline Wilson books
Paperchase Journal (having weaned her off Smiggle)

If she likes crafts would she like sewing? John Lewis do a cheap sewing machine for about £30 and it comes in different colours.

Watching!

How about ... pogo stick, books, really lovely box to keep earrings in (if pierced), personalised stationary (look at This Is Nessie, bag, new duvet cover, H&M voucher, pottery wheel for kids Amazon

A digital drawing pad? Ears pierced?

Shemozzle · 21/08/2017 00:46

My 10 year old got a light box (for tracing and drawing) last Christmas and she still uses that almost daily.

She loves Harry Potter stuff (Asda and primary have some in, tops, blankets, picture frames etc)

anime/manga dvds and books, also anything that goes along with this like jewellery, collectible figures etc

She got a Nintendo ds for her birthday which she loves.

This year I think I'll be getting her a graphics tablet (Paint on computer is still her favourite thing) anime and manga, new DS games.

She also got the John Lewis sewing machine last year which she's used once!! She's always loved sewing previously so that was an unexpected flop.

Pantryboy · 23/08/2017 19:02

If your daughter enjoys crafts and colouring there is loads of colouring books in the shops (Just an idea) I'm 26 and I love sitting colouring especially in the winter

Just to add, my 10 year old seriously loves the amazing Dot we have in the kitchen as she's really into listening to all kinds of music at the moment. She's asked for one for her room for Christmas.

Shemozzle · 24/08/2017 22:57

The AMAZON Dot. Though it is amazing!

Oh2beatsea · 26/08/2017 18:35

Ah that's funny Shem, I recently ordered DD an Amazon Echo from QVC. There's a delay in it being delivered but I am hopeful she will like it. DD is just getting into music and I think it showed it on QVC doing a few other things too. Thought it was worth a try - if I don't like it, I can send it back within 30 days!

We have the echo here. It's a massive hit with the kids!

Oh new bedding and bedroom accessories too. Clock. Lamps..pictures etc

Shemozzle · 28/08/2017 10:08

*oh2beatsea#
Things kids like, you can ask it any facts, times tables etc for home work, ask it to tell jokes, use it as an alarm, a timer, ask her to roll a dice if you can't find one, give you facts about the day, ask her to call bingo numbers, you can open skills and get spelling bee's, times table quizzes, bed time stories, choose your own adventure stories, hangman/noughts and crosses, and countless other things! I was wondering if an echo would be better, but the sound carried really well on the Dot in our kitchen and I realise I don't want to give her the option to put music on too loud just yet!

Oh2beatsea · 28/08/2017 17:13

Thanks Shem, that sounds amazing and all those features will appeal to her!
