Last minute birthday ideas

My daughter turns 13 on Thursday and I thought I had this birthday knocked out of the park. I was wrong.

Planned a karaoke birthday party and almost no one came. Just a few family members. Not one kid she invited showed. Half her FAMILY didn’t show. Everyone was just too busy for her.

I tried a few weeks ago to get a Cameo from Jon Matteson and didn’t realize that they were already doing their stateside rehearsals. It was mid April so I was hopeful that maybe it would happen but alas… cameo even emailed me last week encouraging to try again, and I did because I fell for their marketing, but knew that he was already in the UK, so I wasn’t shocked that it didn’t happen. (Jon is her favorite and it would have made her LIFE.)

So hive mind, any ideas for what to get a Starkid obsessed child for a milestone birthday that has already been kind of a bummer? I already told her she can look over the shop site and pick some stuff but she owns SO much already.

I thought about reaching out to her favorite Starkid-adjacent YouTuber but that feels weird. If they had a cameo I’d do it in a heartbeat but it doesn’t look like they do.

I’m stumped and also kind of heartbroken on her behalf. (She didn’t know about the cameo but the party attendance upset her.)
