My mom did this awesome idea for mine. She took oreos or vanilla wafers (you choose) and while looking at the class pictures of the entire class, piped frosting to look like each child's face in the class (ex. same color hair and eyes). It took her a lot of time, but to this day (i'm 21) I still remember it!

Well, if the sugar is a concern....here's an option...
Healthy sandwiches :)
Get a couple of kinds of bread (cater to wheat-free peanut free etc kids)...most grocery stores will have a range...especially a trader joes if you have one in the area....
Buy cream cheese...(plain and one sweet kind , say strawberry)
Using a round cookie cutter (or a sharp edges metal cup if you have one) cut circles out of the bread...depeding on what size you want the sandwiches to be...
For sweet sandwiches:
PIck sweet bread (like cinnamon raisin or honey walnut)
Add some slivered fruit (like apples or grapes or strawberries and pineapple) and some flaked almonds (add raisins if you think kids will like it) to sweet cream cheese....(pick strawberry, or add sugar to plain)
Sandwich the cream cheese filling between the round cut bread slices....frost a smiley face onto one side with the sweet cream cheese (use the plain stuff without the added fruit and nuts)
For non-sweet sandwiches....
Use a non-sweet bread,
Blend shredded carrots, finely shredded cabbage or napa cabbage into plain cream cheese...do the same as for sweet sandwiches. You could add a little piece of green leaf lettuce to seem like hair for a face, or a ruffled collar.
This may seem like a little bit of work...but then healthier options always are :)
If you want to make them even healthier, substitute cream cheese with 'hung yogurt' (also called yogurt cheese), which you can make by leaving a tub of whole milk or greek yogurt hanging in a cheese cloth over your sink for a few hours, so that all the liquid drains out leaving the nice firm solid cheese-like stuff.

Ask her mom what shes into. also if she would not seem into dolls and stuff, what about a coloring e book or relaxing puzzle workbooks? workbooks are an exceedingly good way for them to maintain busy and get ahead in college. also look into a craft keep. they have the large fuzzy posters to color, and he or she will positioned it in her room even as shes performed. they produce different kids crafts that are effortless and some are mess free. they have a tendency to be decrease priced too.

Buy lunch for the class. When I was little my parents got Happy Meals for my whole class and everyone thought that was so cool (of course the people at McDonald's weren't to thrilled when my parents walked in and ordered 21 happy meals) :-)

My mom always had my aunt (a professional baker from home) make cupcakes or cookies for me to take to school. My schoolmates couldn't wait until I brought them in. Nothing fancy, but her frosting was the BEST.

cupcakes but baked in flat bottomed ice cream cones and if you have time they could be decorated to look like ice cream sundaes or something close.

go to the Dollar store and pick up something there... kids at that age have what a 2 minute attention span - so get something cute/cool (you didn't say boy or girl) and they'll be happy! treats like sweets the parents might go postal...you know sugar sugar sugar... have fun!
