What to get a 6yr old Girl who doesnt like toys

Bri has games, has a Nintendo Ds, Tons of art stuff that is what she really likes...she is getting more from family...so I am not getting her anymore...

I am a complete lost...she loves all the seen on tv stuff....snuggie which I might get still hubby doesnt cuz she has robes and wont wear them..shoe organizer that you put under the bed that kind of stuff...stuff I wouldnt get for her anyway....dont know what to do..she is truly 6 going on 18. She is also getting stamp set from her grandmother....I am putting paper, stickers, glue etc like that in her stocking....but as gift...WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT do I get her....I have no clue at all...anyone in the same boat or have been what do you do what did you get???????

 

A book?
A box set of books?
Music?
A DVD?
Do they still have those Kaboodles things, to organize her hair stuff or art stuff?

 

I am in the exact same boat as you, exactly! We bought her a mp3 last year, a cheap one without a screen. I'm wondering about getting her a "little" better one with a screen. But she may think "I already have one of these" kwim? And you can only buy so many art sets.

So far I've bought her a sticker maker (Xyron at hobby stores), the Crayola crayon maker, new headphones (kid friendly) for her mp3 player and in the car, a small set of stamps for her stocking, a few lip sticks. That's all I can think of so far. I'm totally at a loss as to what to get her from Santa. She says she wants Barbies, dolls, etc but she NEVER plays with the ones that she has so I am NOT buying her any of those!

I hope to get some ideas too!

 

That is funny she ask for more barbies also but she NEVER play w/them either...and its funny cuz last year we got her a 3 story doll house that her brother plays with more w/her barbies and his figures hehehehe

 

Would she like a magazine subscription to something like "Highlights"? She might enjoy a gift card to someplace like Michaels or Hobby Lobby where she can pick whatever she wants. Sarah is getting some high heeled (just over 1") black boots that she drooled over in the store for her bday. Sarah also wants her own private set of pink Legos. She already has a private set of pink Tinkertoys that she won't share.

How about something like a dance or gymnastics class? Magazine subscription? Jewelry? Craft stuff?

 

She sounds a lot like my 6 yr. old. She is getting a camera b/c I kept asking her enough times if she'd like one that I think she finally thought it sounded cool. She does want Zhu Zhu pets, so that helps. We are getting her a little folding desk that she can sit on the couch or floor and do her homework or crafts on. She wants Bendaroos big time. I also found a cool kids laptop on sale around Thanksgiving for only $30. She loves arts and crafts so that is what she'll be getting from most people I think as well as some DS games.

 

How about puzzles. They have those 3D ones. I recently saw one shaped like a globe.

Oh this is a cute idea.

What have you come up with Gin?

 

Not sure if you consider these toys but the girls want these..

Doctor kit http://www.toystogrowon.com/sku705

School Kit http://www.toystogrowon.com/sku658

This websit has lots of unique toys on there that are not your typical.

 

I also have a DD like this. The one thing she loves is to cook with me so she is getting some kid size kitchen tools and an embroidered apron with her name on it. We will see how it goes over on the big day.

 

Chickadee or National Geographic for kids are both great subscriptions.

 

What about a jewelry making kit or a tie dye kit? You could also get her some canvases and mod podge so that she can make collage art as well as painting. it would be a good way to introduce her to mixed media & she could use left over jewelry bits from the jewelry kit in her collages.
