At that age, it's questionable whether they will stick with it. Having said that, you certainly want to provide your daughter with a positive experience. After all, Ann Connolly and Betty Gallegos are female yoyo players! Anyway, I recommend this! I know she will love it, plus it comes with a responsive AND unresponsive bearing for when she learns how to bind! It's a great deal and you're not losing much money in case she loses interest! NOTE: This yoyo can do string tricks and beginner tricks! It's because of the wider shape! https://www.amazon.com/MAGICYOYO-Responsive-Plastic-Fingerspin-Beginners/dp/B092J1BFK9
