I wasn't a girly girl and I always liked science kits - chem sets, physics experiements- building motors with magnets - basically anything I had to figure out and could make stuff happen Chat Icon

a favorite gift was a compass with a book on how to use it

Art sets were also always a favorite

I know my niece loves to do craft kits and they're always in that price range.

Costco has the most ADORABLE makeup bag. I bought it for my 9 year old neice. It is pink and a roll shape- kinda LV inspired. It has 3 drawers on the inside with EVERYTHING you can imagine...lipgloss, body glitter, nails, nailpolish, jewelry, eyeshadow, etc...It's for young girls. SOOOO cute. It was $20.

ETA- DUHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Just read you wanted NON-girly. Sorry...I'm a spaz! Chat Icon

DH doesn't "allow" gift cards so that's part of my issue. Chat Icon

And we've asked his brother & wife for suggestions since Thanksgiving and they are being no help whatsoever!! So I don't know if/what kind of gaming systems they may have.

I bought her the Webkinz stuff because I saw her online doing whatever it is you do with them on Thanksgiving!!

She may just get a pink Nike Baller.

Yes, that one has saved me too, but it closed--I'm not store if the ones in the malls are still opened, but at least the website is.

ETA- I don't see a store finder on the website. Maybe all the stores did close. Chat Icon
