Gifts for 10 Year Old Girls
10 Things to Consider When Buying a Gift for a 10 Year Old Girls
Is your daughter, granddaughter, or a close friend of yours about to turn 10? How exciting! Be sure to keep these 10 things in mind as you start shopping for her perfect gift.
1. Keep it age-appropriate
Remember, you are shopping for a 10-year-old, not a 21-year-old. You want to treat her as an adult, as she certainly is, but keep in mind she still is very young.
2. You don’t have to break the bank
A lot of people have the completely wrong idea that a young girl will only like a gift if it is expensive. That is not true! Don’t feel like you have to get something extravagant just to make her happy. Stick to a budget that works for you - there is sure to be a gift in your price range she will love.
3. Party essentials are always great
What do the majority of ten-year-olds love to do? Consider getting her a nice gift she can use to throw a wonderful party for her little friends. Again, keep it age-appropriate, but think of things like serving boards or string lights that she can use to decorate for throwing a fun birthday party.
4. Sparkles - need we say more?
When in doubt, a glittering gift is always a wonderful idea. This may be a nice piece of jewelry or even a metallic desk accessory she can display in her room.
5. Pamper her
Get her something that she wanted to receive for a long time. Is there a wishlist the girl has been dreaming about? Pamper her by getting the present she always wanted to receive.
6. Surprise her each month
No, we don’t mean you have to go out each month and buy her a gift. We are talking about subscription services! These are incredibly popular these days, and best of all, the company does all the work for you. Simply pick the theme you think she would enjoy and sign up for a certain period of time. Believe it or not, there are subscription services for just about anything- makeup, clothes, food, dog treats, you name it.
7. Picture perfect
Like it or not, something just about all 10-year-old girls love is taking pictures. Whether they are selfies or group shots with friends, we are fully in the digital, photo era. You don’t have to break the bank and get her a nice digital camera (remember tip two!), but could instead get her a modern polaroid camera, for example. Not only will she be able to take pictures with friends and family, but she will also actually have copies of the pictures that she can display in her room instead of them staying stuck in her phone or on her social media feed.
8. Spoil her (within reason!)
Yet again we remind you of tip two, but within reason, a gift is a perfect opportunity to get her something she wanted for a long time. For most 10-year-olds, they just can't go out shopping for the things they want. Perhaps there is a product she has had her eye on or a nice dress that she'd like to have. Now’s the chance to get it for her! You know this is something she will love and appreciate, making it the perfect gift idea.
9. Get with the technology
10-year-olds love technology, plain and simple. A tech-inspired gift is sure to be a great idea. This could mean the latest greatest gadget, but it doesn’t have to! Something as simple as a new phone case (say one that charges for example) makes for a great gift that she is sure to get a lot of use out of.
10. Think outside the box
Finally, think outside the box! A gift is a perfect chance to think of something very creative. There are sure to be plenty of things that this young girl needs, but a gift is the chance to forget the practical items and instead go for fun. Don’t feel like you have to stick to typical gift ideas, get creative and you are sure to end up with the best gift she receives all year.
