I want money, that's what I want

Help me, o LJ.

Next week is the birthday of a small girl of my acquaintance. She'll be 6.

I haven't seen her in a year, and am not sure what she'd like (requests for advice from parents have not yet produced results). Last year she was all about pink stuff and craft supplies. However, shopping is a bit difficult at present, so I'm tempted by the idea of sending her money or a voucher.

If one is turning 6, what voucher would suit? Where would one wish to shop? Am I overestimating the consumer-awareness of today's kids? It was all book tokens in my day, but I don't think she's a huge reader. I'm not sure whether she has an iThing, so don't know if iTunes is the right answer.

I tend to send some money, what my grandchildren call *spends* are always welcome. I know it's a risk to post so I put the birthday card envelope into a dull looking brown envelope and so far the spends have always got there.

Useful advice, thank you!

I went for cash, and it made it there :)
