Ladies, what on Earth do you get a little girl turning 7 years old that she can keep and it be meaningful later in life?

A 529 college fund. Lol.
529 or you could get her a savings bond.. one share of Amazon would be nice. We did that when each of our daughters were born.
Introduce her to things you do. At that age, they mostly want to spend time with their dads. Take her out on a date. Show her how she should be treated. You’re the first male she’s come in contact with. Plan fun things to do with her. Ask her what her hobbies are and plan something around that.
The college fund and bonds are great ideas as well.
Introduce her to the world of what credit it. Not with her own credit card, but introduce her to what it means to save. To have an at home bank account. When she shows clear responsibility, introduce her to what a real bank account is. Teach her HOW to manage her money. Start with a savings jar.
Teach her about stocks and investing. Make that a project you both can work on together.

Or.... buy her a pony.![]()

Make a full day of it.
Breakfast date.
Ride bikes.
Go roller skating, rollerblading, skateboarding
Stop at an empty field after picking up lunch, sit on the hood of the vehicle and ask what they want to do.
Play tag while in the field.
Dave & Busters is always a treat!
Have them give you a massage, walk on your back.
Ice cream!
Go to the zoo! Have them draw their fav animal.
Show them where you grew up.
Look for a trampoline park in your area.
Take them to a stable and go horseback riding or teach them how to.
Take them to actively volunteer with you. Let them see the value of giving back.
Some of these things I’ve done. When my nephew was 5, he was full of energy. I took him to the metro subway station with the longest escalator and stairs. We walked up them instead of using the escalator. I ended up giving him a piggyback ride half the way up. We walked back down after spending the day out. I brought him back ready to fall out asleep by 7:30pm.
BCC, you're awesome! You've given great ideas!
Thank you!
Let your inner child out. Be silly, be fun, remember to laugh in all that you do with them. Yes they may be the crack in your behind (they follow you closely, I mean), make it fun for them.
Bumper cars, go cart racing, teach them about the wonderful world of...the LIBRARY! Anything they want to know, they may find it on their phones or computer, but the value of books and reading about it is so much fun! Have them learn something new once or twice per week. Have reading contests with a prize. Allow them to choose their own prize but you choose one based on what you know of their personality likes. At the end of the week or month, they get it. Have the eldest teach you some jujitsu. Learn a different language with them. Sign language would be cool and they could volunteer with those in the deaf community and build a broader base of friends. They’re young enough to soak up things like a sponge.
Guy here. Good advise about the books. All three of my daughters love to read because we would take a daddy trip to barns and noble, each pick a book and have hot chocolate. Their married with kids of their own now and are still avid readers.
