Present ideas for 8 year old girl

[Thewayshetalks]

Can anyone give me some inspiration??
Daughter has asked for rainbow high dolls and a few Barbie things but I would like to surprise her with some presents she hasn’t asked for, also any stocking ideas?
Thanks :)

DD is 8 and getting:

Harry Potter lego
glittery backpack
glitter LED lamp for her room
crystal growing kit
book sets
Gravity Maze and Blokus games
Harry Potter tops
chocolate

and from my family, more Harry Potter lego, a skateboard and a rocks and crystals kit.

Her stocking so far has:

• notebook and woodland stamps and ink pad
• acorn erasers
• multicolour pen
• hair things
• chocolate, satsuma etc.
• milkshake straws
• Harry Potter Pez dispenser from B&M
• Harry Potter time turner necklace (cheap one!)
• bath bomb
• book of Christmas stories
• Colin the caterpillar hot chocolate stirrer
• mini sewing kit

I'm also thinking about an Instax camera for her.

She has a birthday soon after Christmas - so the camera may be for that instead of Christmas. I've also got for her birthday:

• Music box
• Lego dots set and bag charm
• watch
• fairy lights for room
• stationery set
• art supplies: new pencil set, notebooks, watercolour paper for her paints, glass/stone writing pens.
• new duvet cover set with rainbows on it
• new pyjamas/dressing gown

Thank you for sharing, sounds great, crystal growing set is a good shout!

From various people as well as us/FC DD is getting...

Warhammerr army (some sort of warrior princesses or something like that... her Dad is sorting it)
Alexa Dot
Lego (Harry Potter and Lego Friends)
Science kits... Detective and Volcano
Kids Fitness tracker
Board games
A robot
Books
Harry Potter necklace
Den kit

So far for stocking
Chocolate Orange (exploding candy)
Harry Potter Dobble
Gryffindor pen
Hair bands
L shaped post it notes (her initial)
Umbrella

DD has asked for Poopsie the Dancing Unicorn They are massive and quite expensive and selling out.

I've also got her a dark blue sparkly velvet jumpsuit from John Lewis.

Working on the rest of it!!!

DD wants a reborn doll so we're going to have one of those freaky things staring at us while we sleep.

She's also asked for Harry Potter "stuff", lego, accessories for her Our Generation dolls and a Wii. Obviously thinks my money tree is in full bloom.

Are you getting the normal Alexa dot or the kids one they have out? I did notice the kids one yesterday and thought perhaps I would get this

Last year I got a lot of our generation accessories from very reduced in Black Friday deals

Mine has asked for series 1 of the Warrior Cats books, a stand mixer and a sewing machine. A bit random!

@Thewayshetalks we looked at both (her grandmother and I) and decided on the normal one... the only main difference is the colour design and we were worried she would find it babyish in a year or so. She's nearly nine and likes copying her big sister.

My DD is getting
A kuddly (like an oodie)
Fluffy pjs
Neon rainbow light for her room
Slime (ugh)
An animal experience at our local zoo
A couple of annuals
Colouring books , felts etc

I saw an ad for something my DC would have loved at 8 or any age. I don't recall the name (useful!) but it was some kind of plastic device to put on glittery tattoos. 180 different designs, if I remember the ad correctly.

Google suggests it is FabLab Glitter Tattoos. £9.99

My 8yo is getting a Switch as her main present. Other items are am oodie, harry potter lego, a 3d pen, colouring book and brush pens, uv t-shirt, a harry potter potion light for her room and a ticket to the Strictly live show.
