DD8 is autistic and doesn’t play with toys. She has Lego, Bluey toys (she absolutely LOVES Bluey), dolls, Barbie’s etc. She barely touched them.

she loves arts and crafts, science, reading and her iPad 🤦🏻‍♀️ she has a pony so will get stuff for her too.

last year I made a trolley from hobby craft full
of arts and craft stuff and she loves it, she uses it daily.

I have no idea what to get her and it’s stressing me out :(

You could do a similar thing again with arts & crafts? My DD loves her stylus for her tablet as she can do more drawings on there. She also loves the craft kits where you can make dream catchers, clay pots etc. Does your DD like musical instruments at all?

My 8 year old isn’t really into toys either. So far she’s asked for a skateboard, roller skates, loom bands, fancy felt tips, a Pokemon squishmallow and a ninja kids surprise egg.

My daughter has a Yoto box. She likes to read along to stories. I’ve got her the narnia set of stories and I’ll get her the corresponding set of books to go with them.
Does your daughter have a Yoto?

If craft stuff is what she likes, run amok in Hobbycraft.

Presents are about what the person loves and enjoys. If it is the same thing every year… so be it!

I got my daughter a CD player last year and we’ve spent some lovely afternoons looking through CDs in charity shops over the year.
I didn’t want her having Alexa or Spotify yet.
I definitely recommend that and it’s reasonably cheap!

What about doing a craft hamper and getting a big box and filling it with kits like a marble painting kit, a potion making set, air drying clay with a toolset? 🎄
