Why not get her museum passes?
Or see if there is a stable or even a vet's office that would let her do
kennel duty. I guarantee you, she will learn a lot.
If there is a noncommercial airport nearby, see if they have a Young
Eagles program, she'll learn a lot there.
Also, see if there are model rocketry competitions she could get
involved with.
And then you always have music, see if there is a community band she
could join.
Education and learning can be found in all things.

Oops, I forgot another thing, the movie Highschool Musical things seem
to also be the rage for girls this age. Especially the doll Gabriella.
she comes with a little microphone that when you put it ot her mouth,
she sings.
If you put the mike to your mouth all you hear is music. Of course, i
don't know how much she costs. Hanna Montana parafinalia is also good.
Educational gifts would be hard to get unless you know that she has a
computer, what version it is if she has a Leap frog or Nintendo D s.
Hey, I just thought of something else that we want, Scrabble or Boggle.
They are educational and fun.
