For your daughter who loves learning to code and computer programming, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas you can consider. These gifts will not only enhance her coding skills but also show your support for her passion. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Coding Starter Kit: Consider getting her a coding starter kit, such as the Raspberry Pi or Arduino Starter Kit. These kits provide a hands-on experience with hardware and programming, allowing her to build her own projects and explore different coding languages.

2. Online Coding Courses: Enroll her in an online coding course or subscription platform like Codecademy or Udemy. These platforms offer a wide range of programming languages and skill levels to choose from, allowing her to deepen her knowledge in specific areas of interest.

3. Coding Books: There are many great coding books available that cover various programming languages and concepts. Choose a book that focuses on topics she's interested in, such as game development, web design, or mobile app development. Some popular choices include "Python Crash Course" by Eric Matthes and "JavaScript: The Good Parts" by Douglas Crockford.

4. Coding Gadgets: There are numerous gadgets designed to enhance coding skills and make learning more enjoyable. Consider gifting her a programmable robot, like the LEGO Mindstorms or the Cozmo robot by Anki. These robots allow her to apply her coding skills to real-world objects and create interactive projects.

5. Coding Challenges and Puzzles: Look for coding challenge books or puzzle games that stimulate problem-solving and critical thinking skills. These activities provide a fun and engaging way for her to refine her coding abilities.

6. Personalized Coding Merchandise: Show your support for her passion by gifting her personalized coding merchandise. Consider getting her a t-shirt with a clever coding-related slogan or an engraved bracelet with a coding symbol or her favorite programming language.

7. Coding Workshop or Conference: Look for coding workshops or conferences in your area that align with her interests. These events offer opportunities for networking and learning from industry experts, which can be extremely valuable for her coding journey.

Remember to include a heartfelt note expressing your pride in her achievements and passion for coding. Encouragement and support are often the most meaningful gifts you can give to someone pursuing their passions.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.
