She's turning 6 a day before my son turns 6 and they are always so awesome at choosing gifts for my kids, so I'd really like to do something nice.

I notice when she's over at our house, that she gravitates to our extensive game collection so I was thinking maybe to get her a game. (she has LOTS of dolls and dress up. I wouldn't know how to purchase to be sure I didn't duplicate. Though I could always just send a gift receipt)

She's an only child, so games that play well with small numbers of people is good. Ideally one that could be played alone if you HAD to.

Any ideas?

My daughter loves Rush Hour, Jr. At 6 I'm not sure if she'd be ready for the adult version. This company makes a lot of fun single-player games.
