This shouldn't be this hard. My daughter has no 'real' interests - she pots around dabbling in all sorts but has never really been passionate about something. Her brothers on the other hand always know what they like or want...
So for DD for Christmas I have her a couple of the little sets of Friend's Lego (admittedly I bought these for someone else but they already had them), some Kikki K/Smiggle bits, a Junior Masterchef slice kit, a few books and a small hair dryer and well that's it. I know that those alone would probably suffice but there's nothing there that I know will have her jumping out of her skin in excitement. Please share with me, what are you giving your tween girls for Christmas? |

Similar to your 11yr old mine is getting Lego but there was a large city police station she wanted .
She is also getting a new Ipod touch , a guitar tuner and a music stand . I bought her a tub of clay & some tools but think I may save that for her 12th birthday in March. |
