Tween age is considered to be one of the most volatile stages of growth for children. It acts as a transition phase into their teenage and as such, it plays a huge role in determining how they grow up to be as a person during that period. Which means this makes for an excellent time to show them, especially tween girls, as much love and appreciation as possible so that they grow up in a caring atmosphere thereby reducing the risk of any unwanted behavioral problems.
Even without all that, it’s just good to sometimes express love towards children in a tangible way by giving them something they can cherish not just for one special day but for the rest of their lives. A gift on a special occasion would be perfect for this of course but selecting an appropriate present for a tween girl could in fact turn out to be quite the challenge.
So, we made a list of some amazing gift ideas for tween girls that are guaranteed to impress and get her a lot more excited for her life ahead.
Recommended Gifts For Tween Girls
1. Sequin Journal
This would make for a perfect gift in more than one way. The journal is covered in a very attractive design made of sequins that can be easily flipped to invert the colors. This is a very cool effect for kids and it would make for a great item to have in their collection regardless of its usage. But it is not without its practicality. It functions as a regular notebook that she can write anything she wants anytime she feels like it.
The journal also comes with a locking system so that she has some of her own private space where she can put her thoughts that she is not prepared to share with the world yet. It’s a great thing to have as company and it also encourages to not only be more expressive with her thoughts but also develop of a habit of writing which is very beneficial.
2. Snap-Pop Beads set
When it comes to women, jewelry is something that is almost universally popular among them. While a tween girl might not yet be old enough to own her own set of jewelry, she would’ve certainly got the wind of it and is already drooling over her first set. This snap-pop beads will make her first jewelry set even better by giving her the ability to create her own ornaments.
This set comes with 180 beads of various shapes and colors that can be attached together to form very attractive jewelry. Not only will she have a lot of fun coming up with new ideas and creating it but she also gets to show off jewelry that she made herself. This is one of the best gifts for tween girls.
3. Shengshou Megaminx Speed cube
When it comes to good gifts, they can be basically divided into either something that’s beautiful and serves some basic purpose or something that will help supplement the growth of a child while also being fun. This one falls in the second category and does the job pretty damn well. This speed cube is a variation of Rubik’s cube that can be solved not once but over and over again while she tries to beat her previous record.
The chosen colors are relatively attractive and would make for a good fidgeting tool or even a show piece whenever she doesn’t feel like playing with it. Overall a good tween birthday gift.
4. LCD Doodle Board
The problem with a standard notebook is that, on top of being extremely boring, because they’re associated with school lessons, they could be very cumbersome to use most of the time and they need to be frequently replaced. This LCD notebook will let her write anything she wants anytime and easily erase it.
The notebook is pressure sensitive allowing for drawing with different thickness. All of the things written or drawn on it can be easily erased with the press of a single button making it open for completely new notes or ideas. A tween girl would love this as it would let her express all her thoughts and ideas without having to always look for a pen and paper.
5. Emoji squishies
Emojis are perhaps the best way of expression, at least when it comes to young kids. A tween girl would be more than familiar with emojis and giving her some cute little toys with emojis would be quite an exciting gift for her.
These squishes are very small and come with high quality imprints of different emojis that will serve well as either key chains or even simple table decorations. They could be used very creatively to convey messages with each other. These are some very creative presents for tween girls.
6. Mermaid blanket
It’s not easy to get young girls to get to bed early and sleep. There’s usually a lot of convincing to do before they finally give in and go to bed. This is because sleep is mostly boring, especially for children at such young ages when they are full of enthusiasm. A good way to counteract that would of course be to make going to bed not so boring and this mermaid themed blanket would be a great place to start.
This blanket comes with a very close replica of an actual mermaid shape including a fully designed tail that she can get into and perhaps even feel like a mermaid herself. Not only would it make her extra comfortable, but it is something extra special that she can come back to every night when she goes to bed.
7. I-LOOM Bracelet Maker set

The set contains all the materials including strings and bracelet locks needed to make one and they can even make bracelets using pre-made designs that come with the set. It’s an amazing way to enable them into being more creative and giving them a way to express their affections more freely towards those they care about.
8. Wireless Bluetooth Karaoke Microphone
Music is the most popular form of art for the current generation and there’s absolutely nothing wrong in enabling a child’s desire for it. If your tween girl is really into music then you can get her one of these microphones enabling her to conduct her own karaoke sessions where she can showcase her amazing skills.
The biggest point of the microphone isn’t so that everyone can hear her better, it’s just to make her feel like a superstar and at her age, that will mean a lot to her.
