Girl Jewelry Box?
Q.The boy is 9 and the girl is almost 11. Last year my aunt had a list from them and gave the boy some sort of special legos (the kind that have a theme, like Star Wars, for example) and gave the girl jewelry and a jewelry box appropriate for children.
A.-grandkids. We have no idea what to get them as she hasn't and probably won't ask for a list. I haven't seen the kids in years and my aunt only sees them once (maybe twice) a year so we have no idea what their current interests are. The boy is 9 and the girl is almost 11. Last year my aunt had a list from them and gave the boy some sort of special legos (the kind that have a theme, like Star Wars, for example) and gave the girl jewelry and a jewelry box appropriate for children. Does anyone have suggestions on what kids that age might enjoy? My aunt can only spend about $25 for each child. For the boy, I thought that maybe some sort of craft/casting kit where he could build cars, animals, etc. would be a good choice. But I have no idea what to get the girl, I think they're harder to get for at that age. I was kind of thinking about an Easy Bake oven type thing but she may be too old for that. What do girls like? I think the big problem is that my aunt is gonna want to buy this stuff at places like Walmart and maybe Toys R' Us and they just don't carry a big selection of stuff (not where she lives anyway). -My 11 year old would die laughing. They are old enough to learn how to use a real oven. Now, the 11 year old is probably in one of two categories of girl...or somewhere in the middle. She is either the really sqeeky clean American Girl type (do a good search, there's a whole line of American Girl stuff) whose aim (besides to capitalize on these kids and their parents) is to keep girls, girls, not little women. A girl such as this also loves shopping at a store called Limited II. Then there's the more precocious girls (like mine) who wants to grow up fast. She is into fashion and nothing would make her happier than a gift certificate to one of her favorite stores (Aeorpostale, for one) That way, she can spend the money as she sees fit. Same applies to DVD's or music CD's. A gift certificate to blockbuster or any music store would be awesome also. Some girls are into scrapbooking...so supplies for that are a nice gift. My daughter also loves those squishy pillows (that are filled with microbeads) and she likes those warm, really, really, soft socks to wear around the house. I don't know a child that doesn't love candy..and the malls have that candy store where you pick out your candy and buy it by the pound (I am least supportive of this one, but it's still an idea) Where are these kid's parents? Can you not call them and get an idea of their interestests? Just one peice of major advice...IX NAY the Oven!
