The only problem is that maybe you are never around the child and have absolutely no idea what they like.

10 Gift Ideas for a Tween Girl
Gifts Ideas Not Just For Tweens
My daughter is no longer a tween, but I remember when she loved all of these items listed. I bet she would still like that Hippy Bath Robe and she is 17. She also still really likes journals, cool phone cases, nail polish and pretty writing utensils. So, many of these gifts are not just great gift ideas for tween girls, but can also be used as they grow older.
And tons of people love stuffed animals! I have some that I have had for years and I still buy one on occasion now. When we went to Myrtle Beach recently, I bought a turtle stuffed animal from Ripley’s Aquarium. There is nothing comfier than a pile of fluffy stuffed animals and pillows to snuggle. 🙂
I don’t have a teen girl, or even a daughter at all, but I would totally love that robe for ME!
anything from Justice.. tweens girls love…. even pre tweens….
In my book, teens are always looking for a gift card. Especially if I don’t know what they are into!
That is definitely true. Kids love to have money to spend.
I have two tweens and can say that they change phone cases as often as underwear. You can’t go wrong with a replacement case!
I have no idea what is good for a tween! I have a 5 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. this is a great post- I will save it for the next time I need to buy for my nieces. I always default to giftcards!
You are so right about picking gifts for other people’s kids. I do depend on my daughter to help make that choice. However, she is still pretty young and leans toward picking what SHE would like instead of her friend.
Hahaha! I think that most kids do that when they are young. And some people still do even when they are older. 🙂
These are great ideas. I hate when I’m not sure what to get!
What a fun group of gifts; I would have loved them as a tween! I wish I had a girl!
Tween girls are hard to shop for. They are at that in between phase. It can be fun though. My go to places are Justice, Claire’s, Old Navy, and Bath & Body Works.
Those are all great ideas, not just for tweens but for “almost tweens” too! My daughter is 8 and LOVES all of those things!
That is awesome. My daughter has always loved journals and writing so they would have worked for her at any age – and still do. 🙂
I don’t have any teen girls yet. But I will say it is hard to find gifts for my daughter’s friends birthdays. They have a party to go to the day before Mother’s day and I have to find their friend a gift so thanks for the tips!
My daughter is only 4 and she’s already into collecting cool covered journals. She just scribbles and colors in them now, but I see journaling in her future!
My daughter is only 4 and she loves nicely decorated journals. She just scribbles or colors in them at this point, but I’m sure she’ll be writing down all her deepest thoughts and feelings in one one day.
These are some great gift ideas. I’ll have to keep these in mind for my nieces.
These are terrific ideas for tweens! I have actually seen a lot of these while out and about shopping. The tween years can be such a fun age. I hope my daughter is into all of this cool stuff by then!
You could buy my niece a box of phone cases, and she would be so excited!!
I’m not even a tween and I still love pretty journals like that. These are great ideas!
My tween niece would approve of this list. Especially those loom bands!
That list does look like a great set of selections for a tween girl. The phone case is super cute
The phone case is super cute. Is it wrong that I would totally carry that?
Love the ideas! Great collection especially the phone cases 😉
You just reminded me that we need to get a gift for a party this weekend!! Love these tween ideas.
purses are good at this age too. my daughter had tons
I have two tween goddaughters and I think the memory book and journals would be perfect for them. All of these are really great ideas!
I don’t have any kids but I do have a tween cousin to shop for! The journals are a good choice for gifts!
My niece is a tween. It can be challenging to get the right things. Nice list!
No tweens here but you never know who you’ll have to get a gift for. This is a great starting point!
Been a long time since I was a tween and I have no girls. But this seems like a pretty great list.
I have a teen girl and you’ve hit spot on with the gifts for even her age. She’s got a phone cover (panda) like that bee that she loves, and the loom bands occupy her for loooong stretches of creative time. 🙂
The journal idea is spot on! Tween girls have their secrets, too 😉 I used to write down everything – still do. It’s hard shopping for younger people, because styles have changed so much over the years.
Great gift ideas! I’d also throw in some sheer lip glosses. My daughter loved those when she was a tween.
I loved writing in notebooks when I was a teen! Great list of ideas.
iTunes cards, clothes and books to read. 🙂 My girl is only 8 but she loves most of what you’ve talked about today.
Those are all great gift suggestions! I have a few birthdays coming up so I will be checking these out!
these are all great gift ideas. I had a journal and loved it! I think I am going to get my daughter one.
Funny, my daughter is only 3 but she LOVES diaries. She fills them quickly and we buy them often.
Oh that sounds really cute! My daughter has always loved journals and writing, too. 🙂
Journals and any sort of stationery/notebooks/etc were my FAVORITE things to get when I was in my tween years! I loved keeping a diary 🙂
Tweens are very hard to buy for. I remember that my mom and I would get in many disagreements over clothes. lol
These are all such great ideas. I still love getting journals and nail polish 😉
That bee phone case is so cute! Definitely buzz worthy!
These are great ideas. I remember how much I loved my diary.
Super ideas! I used to make scrubs, soaps, lotion, all girly stuff, etc….and I discovered something: scent it with strawberry, and a tween will love it. Seriously. I think the strawberry scent fascination is just a prelude to puberty.
Great ideas! I have two step-sisters that are tweens now. They’re definitely a challenge to buy for at times.
Great fun ideas! Cool colors and designs are perfect for Tweens. Decorated notebooks, unique pens, journals….all are important. Plus you have popular items like bracelets…loom bracelets, inspirational bracelets, and wrap styles are all very in. Stay up to date and keep it fun. Tweens will love it.
I love this list. My daughter is a teenager and I know she would Love a lot if things on this list.
