There are some awesome girly gift ideas out there this year. I have a sampling here of some of my favorites and also have a giveaway for you!
Scented Shoelaces. SO COOL! What a neat concept, and with unique scents/designs like pizza (yes, it is scented like pizza!), pickles (YES!), fortune cookies, and waflles & pancakes, your girl will be the talk of the school. I bet her friends have never seen something like this!
I got to try out Bacon & Eggs, Fortune Cookies (white), Ice Cream Cones (hot pink), and Tropical Fruits. Let me just say that I cannot WAIT to give these to my little girl on Christmas in her stocking. She has been needing some new shoelaces for a pair of her shoes for a while, and now I wish she had more shoes to use them on! hehe The scents are unusual, but pleasant, and seem to be long lasting so far! The cute designs on the laces further enhance the appeal and they are so vibrant and unique. I love these!
They retail $5 a pair and shipping is included in that price.
Somebody is going to win a 4 pack of their own! Stay tuned to the bottom of this post for more details…
If your little girl has a Nintendo DS, you might want to consider getting her a copy of a terrific new game called Moxie Girlz. I’m sure you’ve heard of the Girlz, but have you ever wondered how they got their name? According to their website, moxie is: 1. Positive Attitude and Confidence, 2. The Courage to Go For It, and 3. Energy In Everything You Do. What a neat message to young girls and tweens!
In this DS game, your daughter will become the editor of her own magazine. There are many fun modes of play that I think all girly girls will love – particularly dressing up their Moxie Girlz character (or uploading their own picture!) and putting them in a fun photo shoot. There’s even a diary and journal mode so your little girl can write to her heart’s content in secret.
I’d probably recommend this game for ages 5-11 or so. If you want to get a feel for the Moxie Girlz characters and style, you might check out the Moxie Fun available on their website!
The game retails $19.99 making it an affordable and FUN option for the holidays this year.
My daughter absolutely *loves* Barbie movies. She always keeps me posted on when the next one is coming out based on what the previews from the last one said. 😉 She begs for them as presents and as treats for being good at the store. Seriously, she is addicted!
In this movie, Barbie and her sisters get snowed in and can’t make it to their original destination. Through it all, they find out that Christmas is more about being with those you love and that the joy of Christmas is what you make it (no matter the circumstances!). This is a really cute movie. It is a musical, so be ready for 5 original songs to be sung throughout in the usual Barbie movie fashion!
It’s great to see how the animation has improved over the years with these movies, and I really feel that this is a great quality movie for my family. I know you and yours would enjoy Barbie: A Perfect Christmas as much as us! Retails $19.98 (but you can find it less expensive at your favorite stores right now, just in time for the holidays!).
Ladybug Jane flavored lip balms are awesome! My daughter couldn’t wait to tear one open and use it. She wanted to start with Wacky Watermelon and immediately started saying, “mmmmm!” as she applied it to her lips. I don’t feel at all apprehensive about handing her this product because it is all natural, organic, and non-toxic. Oh, and the flavor is yummy! They have 6 mouthwatering flavors and each retails for $3.99 with free shipping on all orders over $20.
I recommend these balms as the perfect stocking stuffer for girls (and boys) of all ages. These are safe, quality balms bursting with flavor. Check them out on Facebook, too!
