I can't think of what to get my 11 year old niece, who is nearly blind. She can see light, shapes, that's about it. Any suggestions?

Maybe a digital piano or another instrument? Not sure if she is into playing instruments or not but it could help initiate it.

Got my niece (around 11 y/o) a jewelry box that plays music when you open it. She's kept it for years.

Her brother takes piano and guitar lessons so they are cool on musical instruments.

iPod Touch has some features that make it accessible for the visually impaired. And an iTunes gift card to go with.

Why treat her as disabled? Treat her like any other 11 year old girl.

Clothes, pair of Uggs, earrings, gift cards, tote bags, purse, wallet, water bottles, candy, cowboy boots, vests, tennis shoes, Nike shorts etc...

Well, if she can't see that makes some gifts useless to her.

These have been making a comeback over the last couple of years. My little brother had one when we were kids and we loved it. Lights, sounds...sounds like she might enjoy it.

Well I didn't suggest a TV. If he wants something specific because of the disability - which the thread title would suggest he has some good ones above me. I was just offering a different angle.
