It's DD's birthday in a couple of weeks and were a bit stuck for present ideas. For Christmas she had a couple of Lego sets and lots of stationery. Older DD has just passed down lots of books to her so she doesn't really need any new books at the minute. She's not into make up, toiletry type things or clothes.

Any ideas??

My 11 year olds love their Bluetooth lamps for playing Spotify mostly.
Both have had some great books - one likes fiction the other nonfiction about a sport.

My 12 year old dd got a really cool light projector for her room - remote control changes the colours and puts in stars/waves etc. She also got fake vines and plants for her room. A cheap but effective way to have a mini room makeover if she'd be into that?

Brilliant ideas, thanks so much. She'd definitely like an Oodie type thing, and some of the craft things. And throw throw burrito sounds interesting, she does like exploding kittens.

My DD loved her Bluetooth headphones, hair straighteners, curling tongs.

She also really liked a massive set of sharpies she got.

Also loved the Instax camera and the Wonderboom 2 bluetooth waterproof speaker. The speaker goes everywhere in the pouch of her Oodie...

DD almost 12 loves her fake oodie. It's a standard adult one & she's tiny which makes it even more fabulous!

She also enjoyed Lego Architecture London, Stickbot Animation, fairy lights for her room, homemade pick n mix (all her favourites), Tom Riddle's diary, craft sets inc tie dye & a small bluetooth speaker.

We're decorating her bedroom as her main birthday present this year including a new bed, bedding, desk etc. It'll definitely cost more than a normal birthday but obviously it's partly practical too. She's getting a couple of Nike t-shirts, a curling wand, Goblet of Fire audio book cd & some other small bits to open on the day.

Fake oodie. PS4 games (Jumanji, and similar), LED strip lights, jigsaws, tiny magnetic balls.
