[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the budget and what does "special" mean? Like not cash? Something they do together? Something she'll keep for a long time?[/quote]

Oh, I wish I knew! They keep saying they want to give something that "seems special," which I'm interpreting as something that DD will truly appreciate.  But other than that, they're looking to us for a recommendation.

For context, they gave me jewlery for my Bat Mitzvah back in the day.  It was something they loved, but it was not at all my taste or interest.  I said the right things when they gave it to me, wore it for my Bat Mitzvah, and then never again.  (I remember wishing they had asked me what I wanted, so it's nice to see them trying a different approach this time with DD.)

We asked DD, and she has no clue.  She doesn't have any context, and she can't think of anything in particular that she wants or needs.  (She has a laptop.)

Money to invest in the stock market is a possible idea.  She's a saver and math-oriented, so it might be something she'd enjoy learning about.[/quote]
