I usually have some idea up my sleeve (if I don't already have a gift in the closet) for children's birthday gifts. But my niece's birthday is fast approaching and I've got....nada.
She doesn't like any of the trappings of most girls her age -- hates dolls, Barbie and stuffed animals and wants nothing to do with American Girl, anything Disney, Hannah Montana or High School Musical. She could care less about sports.
Hits in the past have been science kits, National Geographic toys, a butterfly farm, an ant farm, games and science books. But since her interests are so limited, I think she's probably received every game, science kit and Nat'l Geo. toy already. Any ideas for unusual games/books that she may not have or anything that's been newly released in just the past year?
