Got a soon to be 10 year old DD-monkey cross breed. She loves anything outdoorsy - hobbies are swimming/triathlon, breakdancing, skateboarding/rollerblading, climbing, and she goes to Brownies. She also loves surfing but we don’t live near a coast.
Her favourite books are the Anne of Green Gables series, Harry Potter series, Wonder by RJ Palacio and Cosmic by Frank Cottrell Boyce, her favourite films are Wonder, the new Annie, and (totally bizarrely) The Prince and Me. Tv shows she likes are Arthur, Girl Meets World, Tracy Beaker (the old episodes only), Victorious and something called Greenhouse Academy.
So far she’s getting:
Harry Potter jumper (but it’s coming from a sister)
Some new fairy lights and a poster for her room (also both coming from a sister)
Carcassonne game
The Boy at the Top of the Mountain by John Boyne
The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant
Brightstorm: A Skyship Adventure by Vashti Hardy
Eleven by Tom Rogers
Any other books/film suggestions would be really welcomed, plus outdoorsy suggestions. With only 3 weeks to go I’ll take anything - so far from me she’s getting 4 books and a game which doesn’t feel like a lot for that age.
