Glow in the dark: polish, stickers, glow sticks, tape and paint. I also added some of her favorite snacks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2055878 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 13:46:04 +0000 PinkElephant 2055878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my 11 yr old niece an acrylic jewelry tray monogrammed with her initials from etsy. Perfect because it made her feel grown up but wasn't grown up in a way that made my sister mad at me for gifting something inappropriately mature. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2055683 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 12:32:34 +0000 Mrs. J 2055683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Coral: I love that idea, but I think I'm going to save it for next year. @Rainbow Sprinkles: I've never heard of that series, but I'll have to check it out!</p> <p>I got some colored pencils and a pad that @lawbee11: suggested, and I'm going to head to Michael's and get her initial letter, some washi tape, and other crafty things.</p> <p>Thanks so much ladies! All of this was a "duh" knowing her, but my brain just wasn't functioning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2055210 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 08:19:27 +0000 Mamaof2 2055210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My neice is 11 is loves all the clothes from Justice!

This might be an idea for another year when you're not preggo, but the most special birthday with my godmother--she picked me up, took me to lunch, and then we went shopping together and I spent the birthday money they got me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2054667 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 19:17:51 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2054667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some ideas:<br /> A journal (I loved journaling at that age)<br /> gel pens<br /> CD (taylor swift?)<br /> books (what about the Mandie mystery series? Those are perfect for her age)<br /> infinity scarf<br /> and totally echo the art supplies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2054367 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 16:06:53 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 2054367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the art supply idea!!

My nieces love gift cards for American girl doll to get clothes and accessories, gift cards for Justice, and anything crafty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2054325 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 15:41:27 +0000 MaryM 2054325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 10 year old niece loves the crafty kits from michaels to make headbands or jewelry or whatever. I think they might even have some to make american girl accessories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2054318 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 15:36:10 +0000 LibbyLou 2054318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get my ten year old niece drawing supplies. She loves it. A craft store has surprisingly great gifts for these ages. Michaels had an artist book where you could trace outfits and then lift it up and it looks like you're a fashion designer.<br /> I thought it looked cool, and great for that age! </p> <p>If not, a big hit over Christmas was an American girl bed, and other accessories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2054314 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 15:34:09 +0000 lawbee11 2054314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. J: My stepdaughter is 11 and we got her watercolor pencils and a watercolor pad as one of her christmas gifts (one of my good friends is an art teacher and recommended them). She loved them! You can either draw with them like regular color pencils or draw then paint over them with a wet brush and it turns it into watercolor paint. Not sure how much you want to spend, but we got her some nice new brushes as well. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sanford-Prismacolor-Watercolor-Pencil-24-Pack/dp/B0019IKWIM" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Sanford-Prismacolor-Watercolor-Pencil-24-Pack/dp/B0019IKWIM</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Strathmore-360900-140-Pound-12-Sheets-Watercolor/dp/B00251AIO0" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Strathmore-360900-140-Pound-12-Sheets-Watercolor/dp/B00251AIO0</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Paint-Brushes-Watercolor-Long-handle-Paintbrushes/dp/B00JFUPO2K" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Paint-Brushes-Watercolor-Long-handle-Paintbrushes/dp/B00JFUPO2K</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-gift-ideas-for-a-10-year-old-girl#post-2054307 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 15:30:41 +0000 Mrs. J 2054307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: actually, yes!

I will actually combine this into a bigger Xmas/birthday gift because I haven't seen her (slacking pregnant lady!)</p> <p>She loves reading, crafts, clothes, and she does cheerleading. She already has an American Girl doll and she got an iPod touch for Xmas. She also has a Rainbow loom. </p> <p>Any ideas for me? </p>
