B-day present for SD soon to be 6....suggestions?

SD5 will be 6 in November. I like to plan and budget things in advance, so I'm thinking with my next paycheck I will get her her present.

Any suggestions?

This kid loves Barbies, Littlest Pet Shop, and taking pictures. I would love to get her something along the lines of a camera but I'm not really sure of what there is out there that is age appropriate for a 6 year old. I'm also steering clear of the Barbie/Littlest Pet Shop stuff, because at the very least I would like it to be 1)Educational AND/OR 2)annoy the crap out of BM.

Past presents have included and went over well: Drum set, play-doh, finger paints, and a lite brite.

Thanks for your help!

Yes, there's actually a decent little Barbie digital camera out there as well. Inexpensive, and covers two of the "likes" on your list!

Also there is a new thing out there called Squinkies - hard to get but it seems all the kids want them - I got DDstb5 a bunch of them but now finding it hard to get anymore. Look into them - little creatures in a plastic ball and you put them in their own gumball machines and then play with them. Not too expensive.
