Hmm, she is crafty - as in creative! - but we do all those sorts of things already. You should see our craft room, there's just about everythign imaginable in there!
She got a portable cd/radio/tape player for her 8th birthday so she doesnt' need a new one yet. It gets a good workout at home and travels to my mums place when we got there so the girls have music there to listen/sing/dance to. Not sure about MP3 player - I dont think she's into music that much that she needs/I want her to have headphones yet so will wait until she is older.
Viv got the double bed from the guest room - now Blake's bedroom - a couple of years back and got all new linen for it then which is still in great condition so doesn't really need stuff for that. Her room was painted and redecorated about 4yrs ago but we did it quite old for her age at the time so still suits her. Doesn't really need stuff for it.
A voucher so she could shop is good, but I kinda want to get her a special present from us seeing she's turning 10 which is a big deal. Will keep it up my sleeve though!
I've already bought her a pair of boots which she's got early, a skirt and a Deltora Quest book of the whole first series - which she's soooo into. I guess I'm after a 'stand-out' present from Mum & Dad IYKWIM.
