Some things I enjoyed as a girl:

Target practice, berry picking, helping my father do woodworking projects, learning to shoot a bow, playing assistant in the kitchen to my sister's baking, collecting vegetables from the garden for dinner, trips to the library with my mother and sister where I would lay on the floor and read Dr. Seuss while my sister worked on stuff for her high school newspaper, putting together imaginary travel wardrobes for my dolls, trying every 'girly' craft I was aware of -- sewing, crochet, etc -- though none of that ever resulted in a finished project otlr really stuck.

As an adult, my sons have helped widen my horizons by telling me stuff like "This 4x game (Master of Magic) is just like your favorite, SimCity" and walking me through how to play it primarily as a city/civilization building game.

If you can find some sweet spot of that sort, I think it would be wonderful. I have read that one of the strongest predictors of career success in women is a good relationship to her father.

Enjoy.

Wow, that sounds like quite the variety of fun when you were younger; kudos! My dad was very much into sports, so my siblings and i - as you can imagine - played lots of sports in our youth; somewhat on teams but more so just with each other. And honestly, as fun as team sports were, i enjoyed my time tons more with just our little family unit when i was a kid. Kudos again to you for your fun youth! :-)
