I usually do jewellery/books but what else can I post to the USA that won't cost a fortune? Would girls this age like charm bracelets, that I can buy a new charm for birthdays each year? How about Bananagrams (scrabble type game)?
Thanks!!

I think you should consider ordering whatever you choose from amazon.com?tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-21 (assuming you aren't boycotting amazon for its failure to pay UK tax) or similar - that way you won't incur any postage costs. For amazon you can log in with your UK details.

My DD is eleven in January - I think she would like the charm bracelet. Otherwise makeup, toiletries, stationery all go down well. I often order from Hollister in the USA for my DD (as family out there and we are frequently back and forth across the Atlantic between us) but it is difficult to know whether things like that will go down well - they are all the rage amongst UK tweens but might be passe to the girls who live there.
