Shark gift ideas

34 replies

Poppins21 · 02/09/2024 03:00

After all the really cool suggestions for dinosaur gifts I am opening this up the hive mind.

My daughter loves sharks and all things diving. Her birthday and Christmas are a few days apart so need lots of inspiration.

She has asked for Padi lessons which we have got her for her birthday (she will be 10 she has been waiting years for this age so she can be a junior diver) and I have a megladon tooth from Etsy as one Christmas gift.

Any ideas for fun gifts? She loves anything shark but it’s anything underwater related.

Thank you. I hadn’t heard of them I think she will like the style of cartoons 😀

How about adopting a shark? Eg the Shark Angels organisation does adoption certificates and a soft toy shark.

Basking Shark Scotland do brilliant trips to snorkel with basking sharks - voucher for that for next season? They also have hoodies, tshirts, buffs etc (edited to add I just had a look and they have a kids hoody with their cool logo and ‘baby shark’ on it which looks great! Can confirm the adult hoody is amazingly soft and warm)

I’ve seen some shark squishmallows online which look cute.

I’ve got a gorgeous Thomas Sabo shark pendant although I don’t know if they still do it (edit: looks like they have a few although not the one I have)

Shark stationery, books, stickers.

Her own mask and snorkel for her Padi course.

Shark slippers, pyjamas, Oodie.

I’m envious of the megaladon tooth!

My DD is also a shark fan.
She has a shark fahlo bracelet - it’s a bit like adopting a shark - you get assigned one that you can track on an app. She loves it and we’re constantly getting updates about where ‘maverick’ is plus it’s a nice bracelet.
There’s also the obligatory shark stuffy from ikea.

Oh and Rex London have a load of shark themed items like lunchboxes etc

Thank you. Yes we are taking a trip to Isle of Man for basking sharks in the summer. I will take a look at hoodies too.

I will look at shark pendant as she is a magpie that loves jewellery.

I am envious of the tooth too 😂

Another one for the Fahlo bracelet and also there’s a lady on Instagram who has a shop of animal stuff she illustrates, she’s reopened recently but has shark zines, prints and stationary coming out - Tiny Bison she’s called. I got a great white print for my son’s room.

There’s also a good book called Smart About Sharks he enjoys!

Have you got one of those bath bombs that turn red like a shark attack?

Towels/dryrobe/wetsuit for her diving? Thermos for hot chocolate after?

HolyMoly24 · 02/09/2024 22:11

I love sharks too!

We have this print on our landing but it would definitely work in a kids/teens room (not sure how old your daughter is)

Look what I found on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1755323235/sharks-in-jumpers-print-shark?ref=sharev44_lx

HolyMoly24 · 02/09/2024 22:12

Sorry just saw you did actually say her age

PandyMoanyMum · 02/09/2024 22:17

IKEA do cuddly sharks.

CleopatrasBeautifulNose · 02/09/2024 22:18

You can go swimming with sharks at the Blue Planet Aquarium near Chester.
