Mama Geek Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Friends and family want to know what to get her. She has tons of stuff like dolls, nerf guns, legos, stuffed animals, craft stuff, markers, crayons, chalk, sidewalk chalk, games, movies, books, pool toys, a bike, skateboard, roller skates, hair stuff, play jewelry as well as some nice necklaces. We tend to travel with dh while he is working so reasonably portable would be nice too or consumable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 If you know ahead of time where you will be traveling, could some tickets for experiences in those places work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Elf Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I don't know what particular craft stuff she has but at that age my youngest dd absolutely loved window art. She spent a great deal of time making decorations for our windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Tick Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 More games? Sorry, just reread your post and noticed "games" squished in there. What about knitting our crochet? Left, Center, Right (LCR) is good for waits in restaurants or airports. Set is nice and uses your brain, 7 was when my dd started to understand how to play, but it might be a little early for that. 24 Game is challenging, but there are varieties to match her math skills. Rush Hour is a good game for solo play. Rat-A-Tat Cat is great and the math content is probably good for a 7yo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 My girls that age really enjoy this drawing tool called Fashion Plates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solascriptura Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 If you think she might like a craft, you could take her to Color Me Mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cecropia Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Magic Pen/Invisible Ink books Those mini Dover sticker activity books, or the big sticker books where you put stickers in designated spaces Etch a sketch Playmobil makes some little sets in portable carry cases, lots of small pieces though. If she is good on roller skates, maybe heel wheels for her shoes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanaqui Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Vintage Polly Pockets, the sort where the entire toy is the size of a makeup compact. You can get them cheap off eBay and etsy Needles, thread, fabric, and a book of simple patterns An origami kit A knitting, crochet, or needlework kit A subscription to a magazine such as Spider Movie tickets A chinese jump rope and a book of instructions A regular jump rope and a book of playground games, some of which aren't much played anymore so they'll be new to her A book on making your own codes That Klutz book on paper airplanes That Klutz book on paper dolls (or any other) More games (can't go wrong with that!) A set of jacks and marbles, and instructions if she's never played before Tickets to the nearest amusement park, museum, or zoo And, even at seven, some kids appreciate a donation to a charity they really like, although they also appreciate a small token to go with that donation, perhaps a bit of candy or a bottle of nail polish. (And congrats at 5000 posts!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Does she need summer/swim stuff? Swimsuit, towel, flip flops, goggles, float? A movie day: movie tickets and candy/gift card for candy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My4arrows Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I like asking for subscription boxes as gifts since it's always fun for the kids to get mail. Or passes for nearby activities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
