Would prefer it to not be “hair” 'makeup" girlish oriented, but rather something challenging for her mind. I am her Uncle, and would like something maybe aimed at DIY outside of Lego if you know what I mean. Budget is small, maybe 39.99? Can move either way if needed

Advice, much needed as a 36 y/o male with no kids

    My 6 year old son absolutely loves the Snap Circuits kits. We’ve also started teaching him collectable card games (Pokémon, Yu Gi Oh , etc) which challenge his reading and strategy skills. Plus great quality time activity. There are tons of Stem kits out there for less than $40.

    Spirograph, Crystal growing kit, search for stem toys for 6 year olds, ask her parents what she’s into.

    I’ve been doing stem toys for my niece for a few years and she always loves them. She just turned 9 in August.
