I am exploring things with them they have never had access to before.

Sounds like either a Mini or an FPV would be best, depending on what they want to do and where you have available to fly.

Depending on their interests, some non-flying gadgets you might consider…

Foldscope Paper Microscopes | Portable Microscopes

Foldscope makes science more accessible. Our foldable paper microscopes are low-cost devices that bring the wonders of the microscopic world to all.

This is an origami microscope. Single lens, practically indestructible and great for hikes. My grandniece loved it.

PocketLab Sensors

If they are interested in science and engineering then these are great gadgets.

Your smartphone is a mobile lab.

Also of note is Phyphox, a free app which lets you use the sensors on a phone to do experiments. Again, really useful if they are into science.

Science Games

And if they are interested in science, and you like family games, then some of the games on this list might be worth buying. I've got quite a few for my grandnieces…

Not having completely read all the replies just wondering if you have taken into consideration all the rules that go with flying drones? These are aircraft and have FAA rules that have to be followed . Kids that age don't have a great understanding of the ruless, they think its a tou and they can just go fly when ever and where ever that want to. Please read the rules and teach then to you daughters .
Oh I forgot to mention both you and your daughters must pass the FAA TRUST test before flying
