What do I get to go with posca pens?

I've bought my 10yo DD some posca pens for Christmas. She's very creative and has had much cheaper acrylic pens in the past but I hear the quality of posca is much better so hoping this will be a hit.

I'd like to make up a kind of hamper for her to go with it - things that she can do with them. But I'm not very creative so my inspiration isn't stretching much further than plain T-shirt's/bags and maybe a tea set or glasses. What else could I include? What are the best or you or your kids' favourite things to do or make with their posca pens?

Posca sizes; it depends on how much detail is needed! I prefer the chunky ones, but have used the thinner for detailing. Pebbles, ceramic, thicker mixed media paper, wood, Poscas work well on pretty much anything hard! Ceramics are for decoration only as I don’t think they’d be that stable in hot water/a dishwasher.

I prefer Pebeo (?) alcohol paints for glass (they do have water based ones, I wouldn’t recommend the solvent ones under 11 & they’re a pig to clean up spills!). Hobbycraft often have special offers on if anyone’s interested.
