    To find the right gift, kick off your shopping for gifts for girls with these easy tips:

    • Interests: A gift related to one of her interests will almost always be a hit. For example, an avid reader might enjoy a personalized book embosser to mark the newest addition to her library or a pressed wildflower bookmark. 

    • Ask her parents: Don’t hesitate to reach out to her parents for tips! They may have a gift idea for their girl based on something she's mentioned wanting or has been interested in lately.  

    • Personalization: A personalized gift always makes an impression. Gifts for girls like custom name necklaces and monogrammed makeup bags feel even more special because they’re made just for her.

    Preschool-aged girls tend to be highly curious and active. Toys that inspire imagination, creativity, and explorative play, like the best Montessori toys on Etsy, are great gifts for preschool girls. Here are a few preschool girl gifts to explore: 

    • Make-believe toys: From play food to dress-up outfits and outdoor mud kitchens, preschool girls enjoy gifts that let them use their imagination. 

    • Art supplies: Encourage the preschool girl on your list to explore her creativity with an age-appropriate art kit. Paint may be a bit messy at this age, so opt for mediums like chalk, crayons, or even clay doughs (with parent supervision!). Custom crayons shaped like the letters of her name are a fun gift that’s made just for her. 

    • Building blocks: Blocks have so many possible uses, from building towns to stack-and-tumble games. Find well-crafted wood blocks on Etsy, along with other wooden toys, for a gift that will stand the test of time.

    Educational toys, board games, and books are all good gift ideas for young girls from ages 6 to 9. These toys can help complement skills that she’s learning in school, and many of these gifts for young girls can be customized on Etsy. Science kits and other STEM gifts are a popular choice for young girls. Board games can be a fun addition to their next slumber party, while custom graphic novels make bedtime reading more engaging.

    Tween girls from 10 to 12 years old are open to testing out new hobbies and gifts for tween girls that embrace these new interests are the best choice. As you shop for gifts for a tween girl, consider these popular ideas:

    • Fashion accessories: Fashion accessories like jewelry, bags, hats, or scarves will let them try a new style. A bracelet-making kit is a creative activity she can share with friends.

    • Natural beauty products: A lip gloss can be fun to experiment with, or put together a tween self-care gift basket with bath bombs and a personalized robe.

    • Custom bedroom decor: Consider inspirational wall art prints related to their latest passion or a custom neon name sign to light up her space.
