Do you have any children's museums near you? If so, I would go for a membership depending on the price of course (ours was $100 for one year) and it is the best gift EVER!
DD got a kitchen for her bday from DH's sister - it's awesome and she loves it! I thought she would be too young, but she loves opening and closing the doors. Very entertaining.
My other "go to" gift is books. Can't have enough books. At $100, you could get several for different reading levels.
I have a boy, but he loves kitchens, so that could be a great idea. He has one at daycare and loves it.
The idea of a children's museum is wonderful!!! We DO have one close to our house, but have never been. His bday is on a Thursday, THAT is what we'll do for his bday. Thanks so much for all your ideas girls. Wonderful help!
