Help! Need one more present for an 8 year old

I still try to make sure my kids have the same number of presents to open and that I’ve spent roughly the same amount. I know it’s probably daft because they don’t know, but I do.

I need one more gift of around £20 for my 8 year old daughter to even things up with her brother. Not Lego, a switch game or a board game because I’ve already got all of those.

Any ideas that might not have stuck out on amazon etc?

Thanks!

Does she like clothes? A onesie?

Books?

A book voucher. Last year I took my daughter to a Waterstones with a book voucher and she loved it. I realised we normally bought her books online or on Kindle or in Tesco so she hadn't really experienced a proper big bookstore before.

Something to supplement another gift? Eg, we got our generation dolls for our girls and got boxed outfits/accessories to go with them.

Dressing gown
Craft set
Hamma beads or similar.
Barbie or something

Craft? Another winner with mine!

There’s a really good remote control helicopter on amazon for around £16.

Thank you all!

Something crafty might be a winner actually and the helicopter sounds good. Do you happen to have a link Pancake?

I've just twitched on a pair of earphones for my dd to even up the piles.
