4. Make her a sticker book or album plus some stickers to start her collection
To make the stickers you will just need a printer and some blank printable a4 sticker sheets, that people use for making labels. Then put together some pages of cute designs from the web - we like to compile a word document full of cute free to use illustrations - or even DIY them some custom one of a kind stickers by designing your own! Then simply print them by loading the blank a4 sticker printer paper in to the printer, and set to print as normal!
You could even make her a blank sticker book for her new sticker collection, by gathering some special wax coated pages and sewing the pages down the middle, to create the binding. Design a pretty cover and voila!

6. DIY her some ballet themed chocolate covered Oreos
To make these, you could melt some batches of white cooking chocolate and mix in a tiny amount of food colouring to each, before encasing them in chocolate in a special tray - layer some chocolate in each of the moulds before gently pressing an Oreo in to each, then carefully cover it with a little more chocolate until the Oreo is completely submerged, then smooth over the top and pop in the fridge to set, once each mould is filled.
You could alternate colours for a colourful selection or even create a cool ombre effect! Another method is to dip half your Oreo cookie in to the chocolate, then let it set and then do the same with the other half. Repeat with your desired number of oreos before whipping up another bowl of melted chocolate in a different colour and doing the same using that batch. Pop them in the fridge to set, then decorate however you like! Then allow them to set again, before placing in a cute gift box or cupcake style box.
