Gift Ideas For Little Girls

I know this season can be so overwhelming and your Christmas list can seem never ending! I decided to put together this blog post full of ideas for little girls that is filled with toys that my daughter actually owns and loves! I always work so hard to find presents that will make Christmas morning exciting for the kids but also something they will still enjoy weeks, months and even years later! If you’re anything like me the amount of options of toys and things out there that can be purchased can feel so overwhelming! When I shop for something for my family I typically spend hours researching, reading reviews and trying to pick the best option. So here you can shop all my picks of what I actually bought my little girl! These are some of her favorite things and I would bet they will be your little girls too!

I made some different gift guide collages showing the toys and below each one is a description of the item and why my daughter or kids love it. I hope it helps!

Melissa & Doug Cake My kids love to play with pretend food. Juliet specifically loves to set up picnics, parties and weddings and this little cake is always a big part of that! She loves to take it apart and serve everyone slices but it’s also fun to decorate by taking the Hearts and roses off! It’s great quality and has lasted us years! She got it as a 3 year old and still loves it at 5.5! Lincoln has played with it his whole life too!
Doll Bassinet - She loves to pretend to be a mom so anything she can play with to take care of her babies is a great option! this little bassinet is so cute!
Tiara - Anyone else’s daughter think they are growing up to be a real princess? She loves these rhinestone tiaras! They are definitely a little breakable so we have gone through a few of these over the years! She likes to keep them on shelves in her room and take them down to wear for dress up!
Porcelain Tea Set - If your little girl likes tea parties and can handle fragile items then I definitely recommend this one! Juliet loves to pack it up for picnics at the park or just set it up for a tea party at home! This tea set makes her feel like a big girl and I love to see how mature and careful she is when she plays with it.
Ballet Tea Set - She also has this tea set which is way more durable! We play with this one more often because it’s okay for the younger kids!
Tutu - She loves all the cute fancy ballet outfits and this is one of her favorites!
Wellie Wishers Doll - Has your little girl seen the Wellie Wisher show? Juliet loves it! The dolls are made by American Girl Doll and are a little smaller than the standard size dolls. She has this one and she also has another one linked below!
Assorted Rings - Little girls love jewelry and rings but since they get lost pretty often it’s nice to have a big & cheap multipack so it’s ok when they get lost!
Unicorn Jellycat - Do you have any Jellycats?! They are the softest stuffed animals and are all so cute!! She has had this one forever and loves it!
Glitter Heels - She has loved high heels since she could walk! Whether she is playing dress up or going to a fancy party she loves to wear these! She calls them her princess shoes. They come in a bunch of color options so you can also pick something more neutral like white!
Bow Purse - If you’re little one likes to accessorize then they probably love carrying a purse. This one is so cute! She loves to wear it everywhere and pack up her little toys into it!
Triple Doll Bed - If your daughter has a lot of dolls and likes to put them all to bed then this is perfect! We don’t have this doll bed but instead have a bunk bed set and I almost wish we got this one instead! She is always doubling up the dolls in the beds, so having that extra bed would be perfect!
Clip On Earrings- If your daughter wants to wear earrings but doesn’t have her ears pierced then these are perfect! We got these for Juliet before she had her ears pierced and even now that she does she still likes to clip them on as a second earring- haha!

Princess Suitcase - This is actually what she asked Santa for last year! She loves to pack it up and pretend to go on vacation. Lincoln has a blue one too and the two of them constantly crack me up walking around the house with their suitcases pretending to be husband and wife traveling together! So if you have a little girl who likes to play pretend, I bet she would love this one! It comes with a lot of accessories inside it too!
Disney Princess Castle - If your little girl likes princesses and barbies then she will love this house! It’s such a great “big” gift for little girls! One of my kids favorite things about it is that there is a button on the top you can press that plays princess music and makes all the barbies on top start to dance! You clip the barbies into the stands on top and then it spins as it plays music. We got this as Juliet’s big gift 2 years ago and her and Lincoln still play with it! it’s also perfect for storing barbie stuff because you can close the doors and can’t see the mess inside of it! The exact one we have is really hard to find in stock still so here is a similar one I know my girls would love!
Dance Bag- If you have a little dancer this is perfect for storing her dance shoes in! We gave this to Juliet for her birthday this year and she loves carrying it with her to dance class!
Calico Critters Carriage - If your little one likes to play with little toys and accessories I bet she would love Calico Critters! They are little doll animals that wear clothes, have furniture and accessories! My kids love them all but this one is Juliet’s favorite! It comes with a princess and her accessories in the carriage.
Princess Phone Purse - If you have a girlie little one that likes makeup and purses she will love this! It has a pretend lip gloss and Juliet loves to pretend to use it. She walks around the house with her little phone in her hand and the purse on her wrist. She uses the credit cards to pretend to buy food from Lincoln and it cracks me up!
American Girl Truly Me Doll -Anyone else grow up with an American Girl Doll?! It’s so fun to see your daughter play with the toys you played with as a kid. She loves these dolls because there are endless clothing options! She calls them her daughters and loves to take care of them. Is it really worth it to pay more for an American Girl Doll than all the cheaper knock off versions? Depends on what you are looking for! If you have a younger girl who can’t take care of a doll maybe go for a cheaper option like this Our Generation one. If your daughter is old enough not to throw her around then I’d invest more in an American Girl Doll. The biggest difference is in the quality of their hair. You can easily brush and maintain their hair to keep it looking good. With the cheaper dolls, I’ve noticed that their hair gets really matted and nasty and it’s really hard to maintain. Juliet has lots of both brands and loves them all! I tend to lean towards investing more in a doll that will last and saving money on their accessories and furniture by buying those elsewhere!
Princess Vanity- If your little girl likes to do hair, then this is a must have! This is what Juliet asked Santa for 2 years ago and she still loves it! It has a cute little blow dyer and curling iron in it so they can pretend to do their hair! She loves to do her dolls hair with this. And since it looks like a little suitcase she carries it around with her other suitcase every time she is “going vacation".”
Tutu- This is the same one as the first list but she really does love it haha!
Princess Laptop- If your kids like to pretend to work then they need a good laptop!! Juliet loves to copy me and when I’m working on my laptop she will go grab hers to work with me! This one is so cute because it’s princessy. She picked it out last year and still loves it.
Glitter Heels- These are the same as the last list but they really are such a great gift!
Doll Armoire- If your little girl loves to dress up her dolls then you need this. It’s the best way to store their clothes and accessories. What we love about this one is that half of it is for hanging dresses and the other half has drawers in it so you can store all the little accessories, shoes and stuff that come with them! It’s really good quality and Juliet has played with it for years now!
Wellie Wishers Mermaid- I mentioned the wellie wishers earlier! Juliet has both Wella and Camille but I think Camille is her favorite because she looks the most like her! If you want an American Girl Doll but want something more affordable these are a great option. They have all the same quality but at a more affordable price point . They are slightly smaller in size and wear different size clothing but I think the clothing options for the Wellie Wishers are cuter than for the standard American girl dolls!

Here is Juliet last Christmas with her princess suitcase she got from Santa! Behind her you can also see her babydoll and stroller I am about to tell you about!

Doll Car Seat - If your little girl loves to play mommy then she needs all the mommy gear! This little carseat is so cute! Juliet loves to load up her baby in it and pretend to drive around with her. She also loves to bring them into the car and pretend she is buckled in.
Doll Cradle - Every baby needs a crib! Juliet loves to put her babies to bed every night. Unfortunately her exact baby doll cradle isn’t for sale anymore but if I was going to buy one I would get this!
Magic Baby Bottles- These Baby bottles are so fun! Did you have them as a little girl? When you tip it upside-down it looks like the baby is drinking the milk out of it!
Baby Doll- I’m convinced this is the cutest babydoll on earth. Juliet asked for it for christmas last year and it’s her absolute favorite baby. She named her Eloise which is so sweet because that is her baby sister’s name. This babydoll is actually a realistic size and has a little bit of weight to it so it feels more like a real baby. She also just has the cutest little face!
Doll Bed - This doll bed is the best because you can leave it as a bunk bed or it comes apart into two separate beds! This is the one Juliet has and she absolutely loves it! She is constantly tucking her daughters into bed at night.
Doll High Chair- Our exact high chair is sold out, but if I was going to buy one now, this is what I would get! Her and Lincoln both love to put their dolls or stuffed animals in it to feed them pretend food!
Doll Bedding- This is the bedding we bought for the doll bunk bed! It’s so cute and comes with multiple blankets and pillows. Sometimes she will use the blankets on the floor for her other dolls or use the as a little picnic blanket for the dolls too!
Doll Stroller - If your little girl likes to pay with dolls then this is one of the cutest gifts you can give her! Juliet has had a doll stroller since she turned one. She loves to push her dolls around in the house or even bring it one walks. This is her new doll stroller we got her for christmas last year and it’s so much more compact than the one we had before! It actually folds up for storage!
Unicorn Jellycat I mentioned this one earlier but she really does love it!
Baby Doll Carrier- This one isn’t pictured but it’s perfect for the doll/ baby lovers! Juliet loves to put her baby in it and walk around shhhhushing her baby. She will even wear it around Costco pretending to be me.

Crystal Tiara- I mentioned earlier that Juliet loves these and this is another one she has!
Glitter Heels - I have mentioned these twice now because she really does love them! haha
Ballet Dress- This is another Ballet Dress that she loves! I also have a bunch of her other favorite ballet dresses HERE
Tea Cart -If you have a little girl who loves tea parties then this is a must! We got this 2 years ago for Christmas and it’s one of the most played with toys in our house! The kids love to set up little tea parties on it and then they push it around the house serving food and drinks to everyone! It’s so cute and well made!
Melissa & Doug Cake- This is the cake I mentioned earlier but I’m linking it again here because we keep it on the tea cart! This is another wooden cake the kids love!
Tea Treats Tray- This is another one of our most played with toys! We leave it on the tea cart and the kids love to play with all the little cupcakes on it. It’s also great for shape sorting because the treats magnetically attach on to the tray and you match the shape on the bottom to the tray!
Porcelain Tea Set- This is another option from what I linked earlier! This is way cheaper if you need an affordable option however it doesn't come with a cute storage case.

I always try to find stocking stuffers that aren’t junk I’ll want to trash the next day!!

Ring Set- Juliet has this ring set and the one I linked earlier. They are great because there are so many so it’s fun for the girls to pick a different ring everyday to wear! It’s also ok to lose them because there are so many and they are fairly inexpensive!
Piggy Paint- Natural nail polish for their little fingers and piggies!!
Stuffed Animal- How cute is this little giraffe?! Juliet loves the unique looking stuffed animals and anything with a tutu on it is instantly her favorite!
Kid Camera-Perfect for any little one who likes to take pictures!! Juliet has this camera and I love how affordable it is!
Cuddle + Kind Polar Bear- These dolls are so cute and such incredible quality. I also love the mission behind it because it’s allowing you to give to those in need while also giving a gift to your kids.
Sunglasses- If your little girl likes to accessorize they will love these! Juliet is always losing her sunglasses so they are a great stocking stuffer!
Flower Clips - What little girl doesn’t want some flowers in her hair?! Juliet has these and I actually borrow them from her all the time haha.
Baublebar Bracelets- These are the cutest little bracelets for little girls! We got these for Juliet for Christmas last year and she loved that they were more like big girl bracelets and not the cheap plastic ones.
Stanley Tumblers - We love a mini-me moment! So anytime I can find a little girls matching item to something I have, it’s a win! these are so cute for little girls, especially if you have one yourself- and if not, you could always put it on your own Christmas list!

Fire Tablet- We have these tablets for the kids and love all the parent controls and kid features! We really only use them on long car rides or when we really need it but we don’t give them to the kids on a regular basis.
Angel Doll- I gave this to Juliet for her first big dance recital and it’s her favorite doll! I bought Elie one for Christmas this year!
Frozen Magnatiles- I got these for Juliet for her birthday last year and her and Lincoln love to build with them!
Instant Print Camera- I grabbed these for the kids for Christmas gifts this year! I love that they are more affordable and you don’t have to repurchase a bunch of expensive film so my kids can take as many pictures as they want!
Tonies Box- We got these for the kids this year too! I love that it’s a great alternative to screen time and the kids can listen to them at night before bed!
Barbie Dreamhouse- What little girl doesn’t want one of these?!
Disney Castle- We have a similar one to this we got a few years ago and it’s still a favorite!
WellieWisher Camile- Juliet LOVES the Wellie Wishers! Have you seen their TV show? It’s so cute! Camile is her favorite!
WellieWisher Ashlyn Doll- Another super cute Wellie Wisher!
Earrings- These come in a big multi-pack! Juliet loves them and they are great for her sensitive ears!

If your little girl is anything like mine then she loves dress up!! These are some of Juliet’s favorite dress up & ballet outfits! Before she moved to a dance studio with a dress code she used to wear these to her ballet classes every week! We have so many fun memories dressing up for dance class and watching her twirl around in her princess tutus!

These gifts aren’t just for girls but if you’re looking for a big item gift to really wow your kids on Christmas morning- these are perfect!

Playhouse -If you’re little one loves to play house then this is perfect! We got Juliet a playhouse a few years ago and all of the kids love to play in it now! Ours actually had to be painted black and white because they didn’t sell it that way and it was such a pain to do! I love that this one comes in such cute colors!
Bouncy House - Anyone else’s kids love to bounce?! I love that this bounce house is neutral colors so it’s not so overstimulating! Could be used indoors if you have enough space!
Playset- If you have a big enough backyard, this would be the best Christmas surprise! Our kids love to play outdoors and this playset keeps them entertained for hours! I love that this comes in black and white because once again we had to paint ours ourselves!
Indoor Play Gym- These are so great to have so your kids can burn off some energy indoors!
Balance Bike- Perfect for little ones who are learning to bike!!! or get THIS one if you want pedals!
Scooter- How cute is this scooter with a little basket on front?!
Arc Playset- Another great way to let some energy out inside!
Trampoline- If your kids are a little older this would be such a fun christmas surprise!!
Play Kitchen- Having a play kitchen is one of the best toys you can get for your kids! I love this one pictured but THIS is the one we actually have! It's seen a lot of wear over the years and its still in great shape!
