The Best Christmas Gifts for Tween Girls

Shopping for tween girls can be challenging. These are some of our picks for the best Christmas gifts for tween girls!

By the time your little girl reaches the age of 8 or 9, it can be difficult to find great gift ideas. She may have begun to outgrow traditional toys, which means finding toys she actually likes to play with can be a challenge.

The best Christmas gifts for tween girls come in all shapes and sizes – from educational gifts that help her learn as she plays to cute clothes she’ll love to wear. Here are some of my favorite gift ideas for tweens!

Unicorn Craft Kit


Does your 8 year old love unicorns? Help her get creative with her favorite mythical character with the help of this fun unicorn craft kit. The kit includes supplies and instructions for making a unicorn headband, stuffed unicorn, magical necklace, rainbow garland, and unicorn tail.

Apple iPod Touch (32GB)

Yes, this is on the pricey end. However, it is also the hottest gift for tweens (at least according to them). As a parent, I love it because it’s a ‘phone’ without really being a phone. So, they can play games, take videos, and have access to the internet at home with wifi (when you can monitor them). 

If your tween girl is insisting on a phone for Christmas and you aren’t ready for that, this is a great option!
