Gift Suggestions?

lcmlc and Abba are going to a Bat Mitzvah on Monday for a girl they don't know all that well (she's the granddaughter of two of lc/lc's dear friends). And lcmlc is unsure of what to get as a gift. So... I appeal to you, the all-knowing friends list. What is a good gift for a girl of whom all I know is the following:

-- She's 12 years old
-- She attends a pluralistic Jewish day school

So, yeah. What does one get for such a child? Any thoughts and suggestions are appreciated.

Cows Here, Moose There

For those of you who remember Cow Parade Boston and MooTour 2006, I now bring you New Hampshire Moose Parade.

Unlike the cows, who were, for the most part, located within a relatively small area, the Moose appear to be all over the state of New Hampshire, making anything approaching a MooseTour not at all feasible. But there are photos on the website.

Thanks to mabfan for the link, who got it from a friend's locked post.
