What's en vogue with 10yo girls these days?

[QuimReaper]

I need to buy a birthday present for my goddaughter but I think my usual reliance on dresses and Jaqueline Wilson books probably isn't going to cut it now she's so grown up. Are there any super cool trends I should know about, or anything that's been a smash hit with yours?

Thanks!

Oh god I sound about 80 years old in that post

Mine likes Harry Potter, bath bombs, slime, Dr Who, squishies, Wimpy Kid, and the Murder most Unladylike books.

Harry Potter everything

Squiggle is good. I got some for my 10 yr old niece for Christmas.
It’s nice to buy.

My daughter is just 10 she loves making friendship bracelets (there is a klutz set on amazon), embroidery, calligraphy pens, fimo clay, socks.

Something from their favourite YouTuber.

Any Fairies/Elves trinkets
Pencil cases and cool files

Stationery, but not from smiggle (for 8 and under according to my dd), but from typo or paper chase.

If she's in to toiletries, then something from lush.

Or a primark or new look Voucher with the promise to take her shopping when things open up including lunch in 5 guys... my dd loved that for her 10th birthday, she spent about 45 minutes in primark deciding what to spend her £25 on.

Anything a little bit grown up. Does she have a phone? If so then some accessories, board games, bath bombs, embroidery kits.

I bought my 9 year old some personalised make up bags and Body Shop smellies. That was a hit as well as a bath bomb making kit.

Can vary a lot at that age tbh. I’d ask her mum. Like others have said- some love smiggle and others think it’s babyish. My 22 year old loves cropped tops and Adidas clothing but she’s sporty whereas her friends like youtubers And scrunchies and water bottles that cost a fortune. It’s very individual...

Not smiggle, slime or unicorns unless they are quite a young 10.
Klutz craft kits are really good. Stuff to do with baking or primark vouchers would probably be good. If they are into Harry Potter then there’s loads of options but check first.

My DD is about to turn 10. Her interests are surprisingly not at all grown up! She loves slime including making slime (God knows why!), anything unicorn related, books such as Tom Gates, David Walliams and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. She loves watching DVDs so I've been buying her films from my childhood as well as recent releases. She likes art and craft sets.

Mine are loving rubix cubes / snakes / triangles..

Yes also agree with older films. My daughter had the following for her birthday- maid marion box set, whistle down the wind, secret of frog dreaming, clue (her all time favourite film).
Also wreck this journal she is obsessed with.

It's all about Roblox with my DD 10 so maybe roblox voucher?

Harry Potter
Minecraft
Smiggle
Teen Titans
Lego
Bake Off

A lush gift set is a safe bet

Don't buy Harry potter stuff unless you're sure she's into it. My 10yo isn't. Smiggle is also a bit babyish for some. Other stationery or craft things or board games or book token are safer bets, though I'd still check!

Scrunchies
Vsco stickers
Stationery
Lush
Roblox
Lego kits (those ones where you build something specific like a Ferris wheel)

There's a huge range among 10 year olds though so I would ask the parents.

My 10 year old still loves Harry Potter but she wouldn't be keen on getting anything related for a present. She also hates unicorns, Lush and has no interest in stationery, although she does love books. She mostly loves xbox gift cards so she can buy rubbish for Roblox and would love merch from her favourite you-tuber. Also anything to do with Greek mythology.
