Gifts For The Little Girls
Little girls are made of all things nice, just as their gifts should be. We round up the very best gifts for all ages from little girls right the way up to those hard-to-buy for teens.
One to three girls:
Laugh and Learn Say Please Tea Set
Time to share a pot of tea. The Fisher-Price Laugh and Learn Say Please Tea Set has three interactive modes and includes a teapot, two pretty cups, three tasty treats and plenty of songs, sounds and fun phrases to go around. Introduce the delights of pretend play while helping your baby learn about counting, shapes, opposites, manners and more. Your baby can open the teapot lid for magical interaction and a peek-a-boo pal inside or press the tea bag for songs. ($17.99 from Toysrus.com).
Kickboard USA Mini Micro 3 in one Scooter
Kickboard USA Mini Micro 3 in one Scooter is the quality ride-on that ‘grows’ with children from age 1 to 5. Start with the ride-on seat at age 1, moving to a stand-on scooter with short O-bar at age 2, and convert to the Mini Micro with TBar at age 3 . Polyurethane wheels make for a smooth, quiet ride, and the stable, upright design, low deck, soft edges, and rear spoon brake provide an extra measure of security. ($114.99 from Albeebaby.com).
Four to six girls:
Disney Frozen 14″ Bike from Huffy
Shimmer, sparkle and delight – everybody needs a little fantasy in their lives when they adventure through the magical world of Arendelle with this very special ride: a Disney Frozen 14″ Bike from Huffy. The custom features on this bike are exclusively from Huffy – and perfect for any little Frozen princess: a special detachable Frozen bag that can come on and off of the handlebar, so her treasures can come along for a ride on the bike. The handlebars also feature long, shimmery streamers for tons of fun in the wind. Full-color Frozen Princess graphics of Elsa and Anna cover her ride, and don’t forget Olaf! Make the Disney Frozen Princesses proud! Suggested age three years and up. ($79.99 from Target.com).
Seven to ten girls:
It’s My Biz from Fashion Angels
The It’s My Biz line of activity products, from Fashion Angels , is intended to build tween girls’ confidence and inspire them to consider careers in business and entrepreneurship. The line is based off of the trend seen among tween girls, where they are already engaged in the whole “make it, wear, it, share it” trend with bracelets, accessories, etc. Fashion Angels’ It’s My Biz line turns that into “Make, Share, and Sell” behavior, building a young girl’s business skills with a hobby she already loves.
The kits come in different forms to set up different businesses. Choose from the Cup-Cakery Bakery, the Vintage T-Shirt Shop, the Lacquer Lounge Nail Spa, and the Bead Shop. Each of these It’s My Biz kits come with a Business Guide that teaches girls, step-by-step, how to set up their own business. These steps include all points of the business, including sketching your logo, calculating costs and pricing, and learning how to fill out a sales ledger. This guide is what sets these kits far apart from anything else like it. They teach girls ages 8 and up all the ins and outs of running their own business, so they learn how to do it on their own. (From $17.99 on Toysrus.com).

Teen Vogue
Teen Vogue is a fashion magazine for teenagers who are passionate about style, the fashion industry, beauty, health, and entertainment news. Published ten times a year, it represents the best in teen fashion through gorgeous photography, world-class styling, access to the fashion industry’s brightest stars, and breaking news about health and family issues, as well as beauty tips. The Teen Vogue reader is a young woman engaged with life through style, education, giving back (as seen in the regular Charity page), and an interest in beauty and health. Its most ardent readers even go so far as buying two copies of the magazine each month — one for ripping out pages to paste on their walls and in their inspiration boards, and one to read and save forever as part of their “style library.”($10 for two years from Amazon.com).
