Pandemic birthday

I’m looking for some help around what is and is not allowed for my daughters birthday coming up. We live in a region outside the central belt and my daughter is under 12.

She would like to meet with one of her friends to celebrate and I’m checking in on the options. I think she could meet her friend in a cafe or restaurant for lunch or meet outside. I don’t think she can go to cinema with her (unless they sit separately) or go bowling? She would like to meet her friend to go shopping but I don’t think she can do this, can she? Any suggestions on what she could do that might be fun?

Under 12s don’t need to social distance so she and her friend can do any of the activities you mentioned (as long as they are open).

She can meet 5 friends if she likes can't she?

Ah, thank you for that. Now am I able to accompany any of them or is it purely for the under 12s to mix?

I think you'd have to be able to.
Actually the 6 in a group being ok (outdoors) is for over 12s. I don't think there's a limit for unders.
Here -
"Indoors in public spaces
A maximum of 6 people from 2 households can meet in public indoor spaces such as cafes, pubs and restaurants. Children under 12 from those 2 households are not counted towards the 6 people limit." from Scot gov website
