My daughter is 8 and has only given us one or two ideas for Christmas gifts. I'd like to get her a few other items. What are you getting your 7-8 year old daughter for Christmas? TIA
She will likely get everything on her list since there isn't much, and they are all reasonable. We might get her a kindle fire too. She has a mini laptop but doesn't use it much.
Things she has asked for and/or we are considering include: backpacking backpack with accessories (flash light, camp towel, etc.); one of either a tablet, ipod/other music playing device, or raspberry pi; watch; magic kit; lego friends; inflatable sled; play make up; books or a gc to the local book store; ballet clothes; art/craft kits; and clothes.
Golf clubs, accessories, golf putting mat American Girl (Kaya) outfit & matching one for her maybe a new drum kit/lessons Nintendo DS Board Game Wii or PS game Some moccasins monogrammed bath towel (all my girls are getting these so I can blame to appropriate person for towels on the ground...lol)!
board games, arts and craft supplies, basically anything to get her to stop wanting to watch tv all day (my kid is a bit older, but same concept applies)
It's a big American Girl year here for my almost 8 year old.
She wants: Kit doll & Kit's Christmas dress Other AG items She also wants Melody but Kit is her big favorite, and she's not getting two. Dollie & Me outfits (i.e. at Costco) Playmobil zoo set Getting her ears pierced (I am thinking gift card and a lunch gift card for making it a special outing) Earrings More Magnatiles I have some ideas for games I think she will like Calico Critters--a few things Hanna Andersson sweater dress & tights 2017 wall calendar with stickers Tablet, but I am not doing this. We may get a family tablet to share..just not ready to deal with individual ones. A good jump rope Ice skates and/or an ice skating outing Finding Dory movie She said Boxcar Children books, but she gets them from the library all the time and I see no reason to buy them Art supplies are always good but she got a TON of that stuff last year for Christmas and for her January bday

My 7 year old is getting "fancy" boots (fringe suede boots - what she asked santa for), Princess black books, a mermaid tail blanket, a duffel bag with her name embroidered on it, and a robe. My parents bought her an AG doll (Melody).
For her birthday in a couple weeks she's getting an outfit from Justice, a giant stuffed elephant, and light up glitter initial (also from Justice) for her bedroom.

So far my 8 year old DD has asked for:
Zoomer cat Zoomer Meowzie Techno newborn kitty (are you sensing a theme?) Rainbow Loom bands jewelry making kit assorted color gel pens a book on how to draw cats Lego Elves sets "a super fancy mechanical pencil" (not sure what exactly makes a pencil super fancy?)
She's getting most of the above list (probably not the Zoomer cat or the techno newborn thing; she has one Meowzie and she'll get another one because they can interact with each other).
Other things she's getting:
Clue game Cat Stax puzzle game leopard print shoes National Geographic Kids Why? book a Goldiblocks set flannel sheets Mad Libs books a gem mining kit (you dig the rocks out of a block of plaster) American Girl Felicity doll and accessories (she doesn't play with dolls much but I bought this six years ago before it retired because I have a special connection to Williamsburg and I need to get it out of my closet before she totally outgrows it)
Journey Girls Wheelchair Set Journey Girls Pet Vet Set Another Journey Girl (she says the teeth on the AG dolls creep her out) Calico Critter School Headphones Little Live Pets Dream Puppy Snuggles (she probably won't get this unless I can get over paying $50 for a stuffed animal) Lipstick "High Heels" Dory Fantasmagory Books (We're partway through the first one and it's LOL funny). Animal Planet Elephant Rescue Set Jungle in My Pocket Toys Gymnast Barbies
Things she's getting that she didn't specifically ask for:
Apples to Apples Jr. Judy Moody Books and Movie Math Shark Art Supplies/Activity Books
DD will be 7 on Dec 16. Between her birthday and Hannukah she'll be getting a Rebecca doll, several clothing sets fro Rebecca, some lego sets, an Anna playset, an Elena costume and maybe some new books.
some kind of microphone/karaoke set Crayola light-up tracing pad headphones telescope (the $32.99 kind that her parents can afford, lol) clay charms craft kit Nerf bow and arrow
