Toy rec for 5 yr old girl

[Deleted]

We are going to a bday party for a 4 yr old girl turning 5. We don't know her that well. Any recs?

What we do know about her is that she:

Has tons of energy. When we are at their house she runs around and doesn't really sit still much
Plays soccer.
Has a pet rabbit
Her parents are hippy types
She's starting school soon

Thanks in advance for your help!

I do experiences. Zoo membership, or music class, or soccer camp kinda things. I mean ask her parents but I've always had great luck with that stuff.

I've thought about this. I can look into music...We live in a small town so we have no zoo within 7 hours and her mom teaches soccer for the town.

I would ask her parents if she has a wish list. If she's into dolls at all Amazon had a cute soccer outfit for 18 inch dolls that my daughter loved. DD always loved fun shirts, even if just from Target.

My sister has always been a hit with a Disney Store gift card.

My DD is 5. She loves getting books for her birthday.

Other things she loves getting:
- movie passes
- craft kits
- shopkins
- barbies
- baby dolls
- lego

Right now my 5 going on 6 year old is into:
Barbies
Legos
Outdoor toys (slip and slide has been the biggest hit this summer)
arts and crafts
Shopkins
games

She has been playing School the last week too.

Honestly I don't think you can go wrong with anything. Or giving her a Target or Toys R Us gift card.

Crafting type activities like beaded bracelets and such are always a hit with my 5 year old. Melissa and doug has some great kits.
