What to buy a 10 year old girl for her birthday?

stringy · 2006-02-24 14:27:49

I have no sisters and am her Godfather. Usually I bring her to shows or something but there's nothing much on. She likes dancing and acting but her music taste changes like the weather. should I get her clothes? I've got decent enough taste. how about CDs or books, whats popular? Help

You should but her BF2 or Pro Evo 5, lol
Just kiddin,
I've got good taste usually when it comes to gifts but young girls are way too picky nowadays. Your better off bringin her out somewhere and Askin her what she wants, Like bring her to a toy shop or music/book shop or whatever and just ask her what she wants, She's 10 so i'm sure she'd understand that you wouldnt wanna be gettin sumtin 2 pricey,

Ok what kind of music dose she like?. I think that best thing you can do is just ask her, what she is most into and that might give you an idea of what to buy her.

Ooooh, what a great oppurtunity this is for you! Here's a chance to help shape a young, inquisitve mind and be a hand in creating a responsible, socially-concious adult by getting her a gift that will expand her mind. Get her a book! She'll love you for it!

Emm no.. Ended up at a Be'witched concert once minding children . I 'd say go for the books unless you know what music she likes. My own goddaughter is a little bookworm which makes it easy.I usually check with her parents to be sure on what she likes now.
As godfather you are not expected to provide amazing presents just as long as you provide them.

I'd say a smart comment but risk a banning...

Take her and 1 or 2 of her mates to the pictures?

How about a book. If you get her a book she will probably tell you that she hates you. Then you'll never have to get her anything again.
