Am at a total loss this year (maybe it's baby-brain). Last year it was a nice pink bag and umbrella. The year before was a foot spa. Birthday was a nail varnish nail bar thingy with a drier and stuff.
Can't think of owt at all this year. She wears a bit of make-up but TBH as she's so young, I'd be scared to buy make-up in case it damaged her skin or caused a reaction. She isn't particularly into music that I know of. She's quite a girly-girl. She's got all the usual Bratz claptrap and bedroom nonsense like fairy lights and a lava lamp.

Has anyone got any suggestions?

Many thanks

Anything in flourescent colours, at my 11yo DD's school the gloves (one colour on one hand, another on the other hand) appear to be all the rage. Don't quite understand it myself, but at least the cars'll see them! Err Avon make-up is very non-allergenic, my DD has very sensetive skin and is fine with it (don't buy collection 2000 though). Nice clothes from New Look, my DD has a 'promise day', where she will get some vouchers in a card, and the promise of a whole day clothes shopping with me on our own to do 'girly' things, she really appreciates it, being the eldest. I have to arrange a sitter for the other 2, but it's a promise of a set day to have my undivided attention. And to buy clothes and shoes....what more would a girl want??!! .
