I tried to see if there was a thread on this already but couldn't find one.

What are your gift ideas for a 7-year old girl who is into doing and making, pets and animals, puzzles and brainteasers. She has a tonne of dolls and accessories. Trying to get her into some more "grown up" toys this year, if possible.

Posca pens and a black paper sketchbook
Set of storage drawers with a selection of craft stuff

I've also seen some funny jigsaws in a 3d selfie range where the animals are pulling silly faces

My just turned 7 year old sounds similar. As her main present this year she's getting the Smart Sketcher 2.0 Projector, she asked for one having loved it at a friend's house.

Some of her current favourite things are the Usborne Childrens Sewing Kit, Galt First Pottery and Smart Games Colour Code. She loves getting good quality art supplies (nice paper, acrylic paints, Sharpie pens etc) as she uses them up quickly and also enjoys Learn to Draw books.

Oh and she loves Lego.

My DD is also 7 and doesn't really play with toys as much any more so I'm in the same boat!

Ideas I've had are

  • (Literally just found this one) A s'mores making kit from Toast'd.co.uk
  • Kawaii how to draw books
  • Nice and more grownup art felt tip pens and fineliner pens - I'm looking at posca pens now as I've seen them mentioned a few times on this board but was also looking at some double ended felt tips
  • Cosy things - I had my eye on the Turning Red fllece throw from Disney that comes in its own soft toy bag thing, and spotted these amazing "snuggle pods" in Aldi earlier
  • Neck pillow (she always picks these up in shops!)
  • Slime making kit
  • Washi tape
  • The guinea pig toy that gives birth to baby pigs

Aquabeads or Hama beads are usually a hit with that age!

Thanks so much everyone. There's some great suggestions here. She will absolutely LOVE those animal selfie jigsaws. Posca pens seem to be all the rage so will probably get some of those too. And the washi tape she'll love too.

I've got mine a tracer thing it was £63 reduced to £45 on Very and you get cartridges to trace different animals then colour them. You can also sync your iPhone to it and trace whatever photos you take. Thought that was cool.
