Best Gift Ideas For Girls Ages 6-10!
**Updated for 2026 Holiday season!
I have three daughters. Yes, I know what you’re thinking….my poor husband!
We hear it all the time!
Because I have 3 daughters and their friends who spend most of their time here, I have a pretty good idea of what to get a 6 to 10-year-old girl for Christmas! These gifts are great for birthdays or other celebrations as well!
These cool gift ideas for girls will keep them busy and very happy!
For the past two years, these are the gifts that my girls have wanted the most. They also happen to be hot-ticket items as well.
Some of the gifts our kids ask for can be expensive and a waste of money! We all know that we get our kids certain gifts and after a week, they outgrow it and it’s more money wasted!
I don’t want that to happen to you!
So here are 15 cool gift ideas for girls ages 6-10 years old! Many of these gifts will even suit girls up to age 11!
This post is all about the best gift ideas for girls ages 6-10.

Here’s a great one from Wal-Mart too:
Glow in the Dark Blanket
This is probably one of the coolest gifts on this list! These glow-in-the-dark blankets are amazing and are especially great for those girls that get scared late at night and like a little bit of light in their bedrooms. All of my girls want one of these for Christmas this year!
Hair Chalk
Hair chalk is a cute way for young girls to change their hair color and easily wash it out! They can test new colors and look super cute without damaging or doing anything drastic to their hair!

This vanity set with makeup included by FAO Schartz is a great gift for young girls!
Kids Karaoke Machine w/ Microphone

Sketch Pad and Fancy Markers
My daughter received one of these for her birthday with a bunch of cool markers. At the time she wasn’t that thrilled, but let me tell you….she started sketching in that book and hasn’t put it down since!
In fact, my older daughter also loved it so much that I had to go out and get her one too! Sometimes the simplest things are all a young girl needs!
So if your daughter or niece loves to draw, you can’t go wrong with one of these sketch pads! They will fill up the pages and have such a good time!
The best part is, they use their imagination and no electronics are required!
Some cool markers or gel pens to go with it!
Blo Pens
Try the latest fad called Blo pens! These will keep your artsy kid busy for hours! My girls love these blo pens and they have so many different kinds to choose from!
Or Graffiti Pens Activity pack:
Writing Tablet
Or forget the paper altogether and get them a writing tablet! Kids love these things and they can draw for hours on them!
A cool Chair or Seat for their room!
Get her a light-up pod seat!
These are a top seller this year and your girl will love one of these seats!
Or a little bean bag chair, can’t go wrong with one of these:
Cozy One-Piece Hooded Pajamas or Snuggie
My girls LOVE these! Honestly, you can’t have enough of these in the winter! As soon as they home from school, they can’t wait to change into these! They’re that comfortable!
I want some for myself!!!
Sleeping Bags
Looking for even more comfort? Get her a sleeping bag!
These make such a great gift for her first sleepover with friends or just camping out with the family! She will go crazy over one of these!
Crochet Sets
Crocheting for little girls is such a great hobby! My girls love to crochet and it’s been big the last two years!
Here are some your girl will love:
Squishmallows and Furby
If you haven’t heard of these, then you’ve been living in a cave!
These soft pillows are still a hit this year! My girls can not get enough of these cuddly and cute little pillow people called squishmallows!
My girls love them and their friends love to collect them all! Here are a few cute ones below:
Furby was a hit the last two years and this year we have DJ Furby! Dj Furby lights up and plays music. He’ll be a hot ticket item this Christmas so grab one while you can now!
or mini Furby:
JellyCats
Jellycats are big with young girls and even older teens! All my girls love jelly cats! They’re soft and adorable and this year’s collectable item!

Or make some pancake friends:
Magic mixes Crystal Balls are another big-ticket item this year for young girls. This gift is pretty cool because I feel like all ages of girls are interested in this neat toy.
The biggest Magical Mixing Crystal Ball is a bit pricey so if you aren’t willing to shell out that much for a toy, there are other options for this cool magical toy that you can purchase that are a little more budget-friendly!
Check them all out below:

Here is another mini version with one magic doll:

Advent Calendar with gifts inside:
My 8 year old loves these play sets! She takes them with her on vacations or sleepovers and has a lot of fun with them! They are great for ages 6-10 I would say!
Rainbow Surprise Fantasy Friends
Try this adorable rainbow surprise doll! All 3 of my girls thought this was cool, even the 10-year-old who isn’t into dolls much!
The packaging alone was super cute and it turns into a little perfume glitter spray bottle! Be careful because it also contains slime, so if you do get this, make sure you have them open it in a room without carpeting or at a table where they can make a mess and it won’t matter!
This was very affordable as well!
Slime Kits
I know, I know…we are all sick of slime but our kids love it!
I love making slime with my older girls, not so much the toddler! 😩
Slime-making is still the rage and something my girls love to do! There are a bunch of slime kits out there but here are a few of the best we’ve tried!
Doll Houses
This is more for ages 4-8 but I will tell you that my 9-year-old daughter still plays with this and even her friends do when they come over!
This thing is so large and fun to use that girls are just drawn to it at any age! It’s perfect for all their Barbie-size dolls!
We got this for my middle daughter when she was 5 and it was a HUGE hit for all the girls!
No need to get those Barbie Dreamhouses, unless your daughter is a die hard dreamhouse girl! They are expensive and don’t have all the great qualities these wooden dollhouses have by KidKraft.
We couldn’t be happier with our dollhouse and my husband said it was easy to put together as well!
They have spent hours playing with this and it was one of the best gifts my girls ever got!
We have this one below with the elevator but there are so many other kinds to choose from! Click the pictures for more info 👇🏻
Barbie Dreamhouse:
You cann’t go wrong with a Barbie Dream house! All little girls want a Barbie Dreamhouse at some point!
or the bigger version below:
My girls LOVE Aqua Beads! They are pretty cool and they would spend so much time making different figures with the beads!
This is great for all ages! They have some beginner kits and more advanced ones for older kids as well!
Moon Lamps
Looking for something to dress up their room a little? These moon lamps are just the thing! Make great night lights as well for those who are still worried about it being too dark!
This one below is also very cute as well:
Unicorn Ear Muffs
What girl doesn’t love unicorn earmuffs?
My 6-year-old got these for her birthday and hasn’t taken them off! She literally wears them all the time!
Bath Bombs
You can never go wrong with bath bombs!
What girl doesn’t love spa products?! It doesn’t matter what her age is, she will love to take a hot bath with these bath bombs! It’s even more fun making her own bath bombs!
There are so many brands out there but I like to get my girls bath bombs that have all-natural and safe products in them if possible! Here are some great ones below!
Get Them A Camera!
My oldest daughter has this exact camera below. She loves it!
I don’t like that the film goes so quickly so I definitely recommend this for ages 7+ because they’ll understand more that you can’t just keep taking photos and deleting them.
This was a very cool gift and she loves taking photos of her friends and sisters! Great to take to parties and holiday get-togethers!
This camera is cute for the younger girls around 6:
This camera is more for an 8-10 year old and also offers instant digital prints:
Gum Ball Machine
If my daughters had to choose which gift was their favorite out of all of these, this would probably be it!
My middle daughter asked for this when she was 5 and once she got it, her older sister and younger sister both asked for their own as well!
They LOVE this gum ball machine! It was such a huge hit and it’s the first thing they show their friends when they come over to their house!
If you have no idea what to get a young girl for a gift but want to make a great impression, get her a gum ball machine! Trust me when I say she’ll love you forever for it! 😍
My daughter has this one below and they all go crazy over it because the gumballs spin all the way down!👇🏻
Here are a few other ones that are great as well!
Cotton Candy Machine
If your kids aren’t into gum, then this cotton candy is sure to make them happy!
V-Tech Watch
My 9-year-old asked for this year. I was surprised because I feel like this is more of a gift for a 7-year-old but a lot of her friends at school have this watch and love it!
They can take pictures and videos of their friends and it really helps them learn how to tell time. Also, there are free games to play on it as well! T
he watch says it’s best for ages 4-9 but I honestly feel like maybe 6-9 is a better range.
Color your own purse or water bottle gift!
My girls have both the purse and water bottle and loved them! This gift is great for any age of 5+!
They can take the water bottle to school with them and show off their design to their friends! They also have color your own backpack and umbrella too! Click the photos below for more details.
Water Bottles
Speaking of water bottles, they are still one of the top gifts asked by young girls! Hydroflasks are a favorite and so are these new Yeti water bottles and Awala bottles that you can wash in the dishwasher!
A win for busy moms!
For the Active Sporty Girls……
My girls all love their scooters! They even ride them more often than their bikes!
Here are some great new scooter designs out this season that make riding even more fun! 👇🏻
Our daughters begged us for a motorized/electric scooter last year. We decided to try one out and honestly, they can’t get enough of them!
Make sure your kids have some protective gear to wear if you do purchase one of these. They don’t go super fast but they go fast enough, that’s for sure! They absolutely love them and rode them every day during the quarantine!
Basketball or Volleyball
This violet one is really cute:
or on Amazon:
Or these cool Volleyballs from Dicks:
This Molten one is super colorful:
or on amazon:
Sneaker Skates
My 7-year-old asked for these sneaker skates for her birthday. At first, I will admit I wasn’t too sure about them, then I saw one of her friends use them and they were the cutest thing ever!
She loves them and they can be worn as regular sneakers or used for skating. She skates all over the place outside and down in our basement and really enjoys it!
We have this pair below has a double wheel, it all depends on how advanced your child is and what you’d rather them have.
They both have lots of colors to choose from, just click the photos for more information.
This pair below which only has one wheel and the wheel is easily retractable.
Skateboard
My oldest daughter really wants a skateboard! I’m thrilled with this because I loved riding my skateboard when I was younger and even in my college days!
Hoverboard
HoverboardMy husband got my 8-year-old daughter this hoverboard and at first, I have to say, I wasn’t thrilled! However, he was smart and got her one that doesn’t go very fast and is super easy to use.
We made a deal that the girls would try it and only use it with a helmet when one of us is around.
I have to tell you….this is a HUGE HIT!!! If you get a hoverboard that isn’t too fast, it’s a great gift and your girls will go nuts over! Boys too! I even jumped on it myself and it’s so much fun!
Kids Skip Ball
This ankle skip ball is so cool for young kids and can do inside or outside! Keeps them skipping and jumping for hours!
It also lights up and is great for kids 6-10!
Pogo Stick
Last year we got our daughter a pogo stick and she loved it! Again, this is for the active girl in your house!
My middle daughter won’t go near this so it all depends on your daughter’s personality!
Cool Kicks
Of course, she’ll need some of the hottest sneakers to wear with those pogo sticks and scooters!
