I have a 10-year-old daughter, so I know how it can be tricky to get her Christmas gifts now that her interests and preferences are changing. She is still a child but is not as interested in as many toys as she was in previous years. Here are some ideas for gifts based on my 10-year-old daughter’s wish list.
Gifts for girls age 10
Taylor Swift merch: My daughter is a Swiftie and has asked for a sweatshirt, blanket and/or T-shirt. You can certainly purchase merch from the Taylor Swift website, but you also have more affordable options from other retailers. One popular item this holiday season is the Eras Tour official book, exclusively at Target.
Slime kits: 10-year-olds seem to still be into slime. You can create many different varieties with tons of mixins available. Space and glow-in-the-dark slime are also a hit. If you allow your children to watch YouTube, they might know about Peachbbies slime. These come in lots of cute options.
L.O.L. Surprise! dolls: My daughters always want either the small tots that come in balls or the bigger L.O.L. dolls. You really can’t go wrong with them; they are beautiful and come with lots of little surprises. We have the inflatable costume dolls (including the one below) and my daughters love them.
Crocs: My 10-year-old loves her Crocs. They are a comfortable everyday shoe for school and she you can find lined or unlined options. She is asking for a white pair this year, but Crocs come in many colors.
Clay beads and bead spinner: My daughter loves to make bracelets for herself and her friends and family. She is constantly making them for each holiday or occasion. She wants a bead spinner to make them faster, along with more clay beads in many colors.
Nike Air Force 1 sneakers: My daughter loves wearing sneakers. Air Force 1s and panda dunks seem to be trendy for kids her age. They are also practical and comfortable for everyday wear. Nikes come in many colors to suit their personality.
Summer Fridays lip balm: 10-year-olds love Summer Fridays lip balms. They come in many shades, like this vanilla. Tweens are getting into makeup at this age, and a lip balm or a set of lip balms is a good way to ease into makeup without doing too much.
Finding the perfect gift for a 10-year-old can feel challenging as their tastes evolve, but there are plenty of thoughtful options to match their interests. Whether it’s trendy sneakers, creative kits, or beloved character merch, these ideas offer something special for every personality. By focusing on what excites and inspires them, you can make gift-giving a joyful and memorable experience. Happy shopping!
