3. Harvest Moon: Animal Parade
Also exclusively for the Nintendo Wii- this is considered by fans to be the greatest Harvest Moon ever. You play as either a young man or young lady and are put in charge of your own farm.

The characters that inhabit the island all have an anime-style looks and unique personalities. As time goes by you can get married, have children, and start a new life as your child.

5. A Gift Card
If all else fails- get her a gift card for Hanukkah.. She’ll be able to find something she wants and you’ll be in the clear. $5, $10, $100- the choice is yours.
