What are 7 yr old girls into?

[thomcat]

It's my friends DD's 7th birthday on Mon.
They are away on holiday so can't quiz mum.
No idea at all as to what to buy.

She plays piano, is very into gymnastics, got most of those wish fairy books, she's quite girly. Has loads of books and stuff already.

I bought her the Sound of Music DVD and singalong CD for Xmas cos she ws really into musicals at the time.

Ummmm, what can I buy her for her birthday?

bratz

Hmmm that High School Musical thing is really popular isn't it. Will google that now, thanks.

Not sure she'll be into the jewellry thing these days tbh.

Thanks so far, anymore?

LOL at Bratz!

Any other ideas?

My sister has just bought my 6 yo a high school musical dance mat for her b'day.

Other than that any kind of decorating/making kit - jewelry, weaving bags, pottery etc.

Hmmm a musical dance mat aye, sounds good. Off to google that now, thanks.

Also found a High School Musical Easy Piano book which might be good.

Thanks girls.

Any more ideas always welcome though

£19.99 in Argos, I think.

Hama beads galore with my 7 year old DD.

Book token too boring? Mine would love it.

Gwyneth Rees book?
Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty on DVD?
There's a Disney compilation with all the "princess" songs on which my 7yo DD loves.

Thanks for the ideas, am most grateful.

She's kind of already grown out of Disney princesses, I think.

Will google other ideas.

Thank you.

My dds really like Sylvanian Families. Can highly recommend the canal boat & windmill.

DD loves Bindeez (like Hama beads but you don't iron them)

Voucher for Claire's or HMV/WHSmith.

HSM cheerleading outfit.

High School Musical

Mine likes moon shoes and roller blades - wants some heelies but I am too tight to shell out £60 on 'em
Cds like Girls Aloud, or Hannah Montana a big fave currently
Pink stuff

Agree with Puppy in Pocket and cheerleading outfit too
There's a little mini vet range of toys - lots of little animals bit like Puppy in pocket thing

ooo oo ooooo, loving the rush of ideas, v exciting and am googling them all now. I love you all!

Be kind to her mum and buy her anything which she can play with on her own during the summer holidays...

My DD loves her bright pink Geomag (magnetic strips and balls which make lots of different shapes.

The birthday girl sounds sporty, so what about Swingball?

MY DD also loves a good encyclopaedia. The Usborne ones are great.

Patsy

Anything to do with hair, braiders, beaders. Anything crafty, pig painting etc. A really special art set perhaps or yes, sadly anything to do with Bratz.

Just to say that my neive when she was seven loved the Animal Hospital range - sounds smiliar to the vet range mentioned below.

I think that might be what I was thinking about

My 7yo dd likes anything to do with animals, and bugs. She likes Animal Hospital stuff, Sylvanian families, geomag, sporty stuff - things to do with cycling, roller-skating, swimming. Books (fiction and non-fiction). Art and craft always popular.

She doesn't like pink, or dolls. or princess or fluffy stuff. She likes pirates.
