What are you getting your 10 year old DDs? She hasn't asked for anything specific. I'm completely stuck for ideas!

I have a 10 year old DD and I am completely stuck too. She has had all the craft and tech you can throw at her. (Older sister)
The only thing she has asked for are plushie toys, comic style books and Squishmallows 🙄
The only item I have seen that may be a contender is a stop motion animation kit. Other than that, I’m also stuck…

MissDollyMix · 11/11/2023 11:44

My DD is 10 and she’s horse mad so most of her presents are horse related- but other than that- she’s getting an Oodie, some posca pens, slimes, various body lotions, shower gels and some lip glosses (basic make up) Some books - she loves to read although I prefer to give nonfiction as gifts so there’s this guide to Harry Potter book she’s got her eye on. She’d also like a heated throw or electric blanket for her bed and some clothes. Her list is quite extensive!

User3735 · 11/11/2023 17:42

Mine is getting a share of a Nintendo Switch and has asked for the new Barbie game to go with it. Only other thing she has asked for so far is the new Christmas Lottie Brooks book and maybe a Lego set but she isn't sure which one yet. I have got her a 3D pen (because her brother wants one, and they are always jealous of each others gifts). I've also got her a bubble tea kit/hamper. She could do with a new tablet as the screen is cracked on hers, but with the Switch it would seem excessive so not sure, but maybe more practical than filler gifts for the sake of it.

CuntRYMusicStar · 11/11/2023 17:48

Mine is 11 and getting a stitch knee length fleece hoody, bubble tea set, nail wraps, book, stationery, fancy notebooks, lush sleepy cream and fairy lights for her room. She hasn't asked for anything yet - I'm hoping she has some inspiration!

Iwantamarshmallowman · 11/11/2023 18:11

DD has a November birthday she will be 9.. she's getting some squishmallows, slime ,lego, arts and craft stuff a chemistry and magic set some lol dolls, a cute bag from vinted ,a pink safe , books, games, a table top punch bag and some clothing.

Bakedbeansandtoast · 11/11/2023 18:30

Thank you all! Loads of good ideas here! @Forgottenmyphone - is the Kumi Kreator good? She's mentioned that but I wasn't sure if it was a gimmick?

OP posts:
Homefry · 11/11/2023 18:40

Following with interest!
So far I've picked up for my DD10 a disney wooden box art set, night light, Peppa pig Xmas mug. I'm just beginning but will add slime, socks and sweets. Am struggling to think of a main gift and other bits and Bob's she doesn't already have. We did talk about ugg boots but seems like a boring gift for a ten year old?!

angeltattoo · 11/11/2023 18:57

Mine wants a Polaroid camera, some slime, a magic 8 ball, Moriah Elizabeth Create this Book.

Forgottenmyphone · 11/11/2023 18:58

@Bakedbeansandtoast Not a gimmick at all. It gets used time and time again and DD’s friends love using it when they come round. Hence the need for a refill pack!

BettyOBarley · 11/11/2023 20:47

DD got the Kumi Kreator last year and we can't get on with it at all, constantly jams! I thought maybe they were just a bit rubbish but I need to watch some YouTube videos then, as our technique is definitely off! 😂

BettyOBarley · 11/11/2023 20:52

Things DD is getting (birthday and Christmas from the whole family) are:

Squishmallows
Giant cat pillow
Stitch oodie
Bubble tea kit
Fluffy crocs
Ariana Grande body spray
Slime
Harry potter Hagrids terrarium
Top Model books
Books
Stitch necklace
Dobby Lego set
Air dry clay set
A diary and pens

We're thinking of getting the kids a Switch to share as well, but not sure on that one yet.

Needmorelego · 11/11/2023 20:53

@FartNRoses what's wrong with comic books/graphic novels and plushies.
If that's what your 10 year old wants then your Christmas is easy.

3kidsaremorethanenough · 11/11/2023 20:56

Place marking for ideas....Well and truly stumped this year 🙈

Jemimapuddleduk · 11/11/2023 20:58

A squishmallow, a teddy fleece jumper (H&M), a teddy fleece scarf (same), combats and top from river island, Lego set, calligraphy set and pens, Lottie Brooke’s books, kids cocktail making book and accessories and shaker.

Elisheva · 11/11/2023 20:59

A snake.

Both my DDs would be insanely jealous!!

FartNRoses · 11/11/2023 21:52

@Needmorelego very true but I am currently drowning in a deep sea of soft toys 😁😁

SilverCatStripes · 11/11/2023 21:58

PuttingDownRoots · 11/11/2023 21:29

Both my DDs would be insanely jealous!!

So would mine ! She has been asking for a snake for a looooong time , not helped by the fact that DH’s friend has one and she loves him. However, we already have a menagerie of pets so it will be a while before we think about getting another one.

DD (will be 11 in Feb) is getting :

Harry Potter Lego
Hogwarts Legacy
New Barbie (waiting to see what she would like in the BF sales )
Bath bombs & bubble bath (we only have a shower unfortunately but she still has plenty of fun messing about in the shower with them! )
Cat board Game
Glitter pens & some nice thick card
Cat onesie
books (still need to get these so haven’t decided which ones yet )
Big box of milk tray
