My work adopts a family in the local area that needs help providing gifts for Christmas/holidays every year. The non-profit we work with selects only need-based families. It's a great cause and I really love doing it. Usually everyone gets a person in the family - this year, I got a 10 year old girl. The minimum is $25 and we agreed the maximum would be $40 this year for each family member to keep it fair.
I got everything on the "needs" list for her - jeans, winter accessories, but what should I get for a "want"... What do 10 year old girls like these days? I really have no idea. My coworker says her 10 year old has been wanting an iPhone, iPod Touch, insert other expensive electronic toys here (which would definitely take me over $40).
I've already spent $25 - what do you she would like for $15-20 ish? I was thinking maybe a $20 gift card to Claires or something like that, but I don't know if the family has a car and can get there (though there are some in the area).
Thanks in advance!
