Any ideas for a gift for creative/artistic teen and preteen nieces and one 8 year old nephew?
They are chassidish hard core frum.
I wanted to get an art set or baking set but the parents are against giving the kids sugar and other artificial food/food color. It's a last minute gift so no online orders.
Can anyone tell me what teen girls like?
Budget up to $75
Thanks!

For the 8 year old nephew buy a rubik's cube or similar item. They are the latest craze in Israel. Alternately you can buy him a dry erase board and some dry erase markers (they don't have as big of a selection of markers in Israel as the US- buy the small markers with the thin point) and he can practice being "Rebbe".
Preteen nieces buy bows for their hair or art's and crafts activity
For a teen girl buy a nice wristlet.

You can get the teen girls clothing, purses, wallets, jewelry, nice linen for their room.
For the little boy playmobile is always fun.

BOOKS! English books are very expensive here, and hard to find. Not every town has an, English library, or a good selection, or is close by.

If there is one thing I wish I had made room for on my lift, it would have been a crate full of teen and tween books for DD. Study

Do you have a place to order from? There is a fabulous store in the Romema area that has a wide range of toys/dress up etc for all ages. I ordered from there and the customer service is fabulous. She is also very helpful in guiding your decision on what is best/age appropriate.
