Gifts to occupy creative DD10

I don’t have a creative bone in my body but DD10 loves everything creative. Her brother is getting a PS5 for Christmas so he’ll be busy with that.

What do your creative girls love to do, bonus points for not needing lots of parental supervision as I have a younger DD too.

Do you know what her favourite creative areas are? She sounds like me as a child. Ideas.

Calligraphy set
Amagurami crochet kit
Pen and different coloured inks
Photoshop subscription (good idea if she wants to pursue a career in design)
Felting kit, 3d rabbit or similar
Evening class for water painting, silver smithing, pottery making etc.
Icing tips for cake decorating

My ten year old has enjoyed crystal art pictures and paint by numbers. No adult supervision required.
Does she have the basics like really nice brush pens or a water colour set?
Fabric paints? Hobby craft do an excellent range of ‘blanks’ fabric bags and stuff. Wooden boxes do pots and all sorts for painting.
Hobby craft would have loads of possible suggestions. Voucher to choose her own?

My 11yo loves his 3D pen.
Also Ohuhu alcohol markers
Aquarellum sets

Embroidery
Marbeling set
Loom to weave her own rugs
Origami set
Buy her a load of canvasses and acrylic paint and brushes

Sewing machine would make a fab gift.

An embroidery machine would be awesome too but they're a wee bit expensive even secondhand. If you can find a cheap one then snap it up. They're amazing.

Posca pens and basket of blanks - my then-10yo got this last year!
Crystal art or paint by numbers
Djeco scarf painting kit
Friendship bracelet kit
Sewing kit
Resin keyring kit (does require supervision)
Candle making kit
Mosaic photo frame

What about a nice set of water colours? If she has not got already.
Latch hook kits, or a punch needle (if you think it would be appropriate)
Jewellery making kit
Mosaics
Diamond Art
Crochet kit
Cross stitch kit, you can get lots of little kits which are quite nice.
Posca pens seem quite popular, along with the a black page sketch book.

Echoing PP but origami paper is a great one. Would make a good stocking filler. Folded Square on Etsy has lovely designs, including Christmas design 😊

These are amazing, thank you, she will be delighted.
