This hands-on experience will make her feel connected to the ancient world.

This will provide her with a unique and immersive experience, allowing her to see the artifacts and structures she has been studying in person.

5. Mythology-inspired board games: There are several board games available that incorporate elements of mythology or ancient civilizations. Look for games like "Cyclades" or "Imhotep" that will not only provide entertainment but also allow her to engage with the myths and legends she loves.

6. Subscription to a mythological magazine or publication: Consider subscribing her to a magazine or publication that focuses on mythology or ancient civilizations. This will keep her updated on new discoveries, research, and theories in the field and provide content for her to read and engage with regularly.
