Help - Xmas pressie ideas for distant 10 y-o niece in US

4 replies

Twitchet · 04/11/2005 19:48

My brother died several years ago and since she's in the US I don't really see her very much and so don't know her very well. Any help ideas at all would be brill. She's not sporty, but is a total tween and is quite "crafty" ie making things not Angelica-Rugrat like! Budget is somewhere between £15 and £30 and ideally not gigantic/bulky because of post.

Please help!

Why not buy one of the US craft sets from the US qvc site and have it delivered directly to her?

I used to live in the US - you could order off any number of online sites based in the US and get it delivered to your Niece - Walmart, ToysRUs, Amazon (who also sell toys etc in the US), they are big into on-line over there so you should find plenty of choice - I was trying to think of something you could get her that they would not be able to buy in the US but it's quite hard as they sell most things!
