3. Online Courses or Workshops: Consider enrolling your daughter in an online calligraphy course or workshop where she can learn from experts and practice alongside other enthusiasts. This gift not only provides her with valuable learning opportunities but also a sense of community and mentorship in her artistic journey.

These journals often have guide sheets, dotted grids, or lined templates that make it easier for her to practice different styles and experiment with various techniques.
