For your daughter who has a passion for model rocketry and amateur rocket launching, there are several thoughtful and exciting gift ideas that you can consider. These gifts will not only enhance her rocketry experience but also inspire her to continue exploring the world of science and engineering. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Model Rocket Kit: Look for a high-quality model rocket kit with different skill levels, allowing your daughter to challenge herself as she progresses. Choose a kit that includes everything she needs, such as rocket components, launch pad, and igniters.

2. Launch Set: Consider purchasing a model rocket launch set, which usually includes a rocket, launch pad, and a launch controller. This will give her an all-in-one package, ensuring she has everything necessary for successful rocket launches.

3. Rocket Engines: Stock up on a variety of rocket engines of different sizes and power levels. This will allow her to experiment with different flight characteristics and introduce unique challenges into her launches. Remember to choose engines that are suitable for her current skill level and comply with local regulations.

5. Rocket Building Tools: Help her improve her rocket-building skills by providing her with a set of specialized tools. Look for a toolset that includes items like a modeling knife, sanding block, glue, and pliers. Additionally, a good quality paint set will allow her to customize and personalize her rockets.

6. Books and Magazines: Encourage her further exploration of rocketry by gifting her insightful books and magazines. Look for publications that cover topics like rocket design, aerodynamics, and space exploration. These resources will expand her knowledge and inspire her to take her ventures into rocketry to the next level.

7. Trip to Space Museum or Rocket Launch Event: Plan a special outing to a nearby space museum or a rocket launch event. This will give her an opportunity to learn more about the history of space exploration, see real rockets up close, and meet like-minded enthusiasts.

8. Subscription to Rocketry Club or Online Community: Enroll her in a rocketry club or online community where she can interact with fellow enthusiasts, exchange ideas, and learn from experienced rocket builders and fliers. This will provide her with a supportive network and inspire her to continue pursuing her passion.

Remember, when selecting a gift, consider your daughter's current skill level and her specific interests within model rocketry. By choosing a gift that aligns with her passion, you will not only support her hobby but also encourage her to continue exploring the exciting world of amateur rocket launching.
