Holiday Gift Guide – Girls

For this year’s Holiday Gift Guide I am showcasing products that are on my family’s wish list.  The below gift ideas are products I have either already got in preparation for Christmas or items the children in my family are asking for.

This post has gift ideas for girls.  My oldest, T, is 12 years old and Gab, my middle child, is 7 years old.  I also have several nieces ranging from adult to newborn which makes for a very large family with a long wish list to go through.  Below are some highlights from it.

T’s Wish List for Christmas

Girl Gourmet Cake Bakery is one item T is asking for as a Christmas gift. I will admit this product looks really neat. We have seen the commercials and even visited Toys R Us to check it out. The suggested age on the box is 8-12 and although T is already 12 1/2 she wants it. I know this is something that the two of us could do together and have lots of fun, plus it is one of those products that Gab could share as well. Retail Value: $34.99

T purchased an Apple iPod Touch for her birthday in July so one main gift she is asking for is iTunes gift cards.  She has downloaded so many iPod Touch apps for free but she has created a list of some that costs money for when she gets some credit in her account.  She also loves to download music to her iPod Touch instead of buying CDs since her iPod plugs into her stereo. iTunes Gift Cards come in a variety of values.

These beautiful Disney inspired designed netbooks make a perfect gift for any Disney lover. My children are huge Disney fans as well as I am.  The custom desktops on the computer come in several different Disney character themes.  The Disney Netpal by ASUS has an 8.9-Inch screen and a 5 Hour Battery Life.  This makes perfect size for carrying around and children of all ages. T wants a new computer and would rather have a small netbook over a large laptop any day.  However these computers would make a great gift for Gab too.  Retail Value: $349.99

For all you Twilight lovers out there, Twilight scene it? The DVD Game will make a great gift.  T has read all the books and owns the first movie.  She can’t wait to go see New Moon this week.  I already have this game put up in the top of the closet ready to wrap for her for Christmas.  I know she will love it.  I also got the game for my 13 year old niece as well since she loves the movie. Retail Value: $37.99

T has been taking art class this year and loves it.  She has added a Full Box French Style Easel to her wish list and also would love some canvas, paint set, brushes and regular paper for drawing as well.  She has already learned a lot in art this year alone and wants to practice at home.  This item she will most likely receive from Santa under the tree.  She has even cleared room in her bedroom to set it up. Retail Value: $59.99

Gab’s Wish List for Christmas

During the summer Gab and T’s Nintendo DS systems got stolen.  Unfortunately it wasn’t within the budget to replace.  They both still have most of their games (only missing the ones that were in the game system).  For Christmas Gab is asking for the Nintendo DSi Matte – Black.  Gab is a total game playing guru and this portable game system has been a life saver during all her doctor appointments and hospital stays.  Retail Value: $169.99

Since Gab is asking for a new Nintendo DS system for Christmas I know she will love to have at least a few new games to go with it. Winter’s Tail is the perfect game for Gab. She loves going to Sea World and feeding the dolphins.  This game let’s her read along with the story and interact in the game.  Gab loves playing games so much that she could spend hours doing it, so learning games are very important in our home.  Retail Value: $29.99

Gab loves playing her Leapster 2.  She got the Leapster L-MAX when she was four years old and literally played it regularly until last Christmas when she got the Leapster 2.  Like I mentioned above learning games are important in our home. I love just about everything Leap Frog puts out.  My family just loved the movie Up and for Christmas Gab is asking for the Leapster game to go with it. Retail Value: $24.99

Gab plays the Wii the most in our house although at times we use it for family fun.  I just love playing tennis and using my Wii Fit.  Gab also loves horses.  She was raised around horses at her grandma’s house and visits often.  This is a game she is excited to ask for.  This fun interactive game let’s the child learn how to care for a horse while continuing through levels to unlock new outfits for Barbie.  What more could a horse lover like Gab ask for out of a game? Retail Value: $19.99

This concludes the gift guide items for girls.  Coming up next are holiday gift ideas for boys.
