Spoil Her Rotten with These Insanely Cute Toys and Gifts! 10 Gift Ideas for Girl Kids in 2019 That'll Make You Wish You Were a Kid Again!

Buying gifts for kids often becomes a quest for the smartest toys that will turn them into child geniuses, but it shouldn't always be such a serious affair. Sure, their growth, development and stages of learning are all important things too, but does one always need to go through this checklist when stepping into a toy store? No!

Kids are loads of fun. They are past the toddler age and can run around, play by themselves, laugh, giggle and do silly things. They are are at that adorable age where they still think you know everything, and enjoy playing with you; they haven't yet begun inching toward their tweens when they learn to roll their eyes and become impossible to please, and you should make the most of that time.

A soft cuddly toy that also happens to talk makes it to the top of our list for obvious reasons: every little girl needs a cuddly best friend! This one has been cheekily named Ted Talks as he can play a recorded message of up to 20 seconds.

Give her this stuffed bear with your message and every time she presses the bear she will be able to hear it. The good thing is that it isn’t one of those loud toys; the sound device inside the bear is small and produces a low volume so she will have to hold it close to her ear to hear it. A secret message only for her; that should please her plenty. The bear can be unzipped to access the sound box and at the push of a button she can change the message whenever she wishes, or even remove the box.

Order the toy at Oyehappy for Rs.2,250.

As a kid, she is still only learning to write. Her writing still has a long way to go in terms of accuracy and neatness, and spellings pose problems of their own. But that doesn’t mean she can’t enjoy scribbling with pencils, sketch pens, markers, crayons and whatever else she can lay her hands on. Colouring books, doodle pads and often various other surfaces give testimony to how much she enjoys playing with colours. Highlighters are popular with kids as they are usually in bright, neon colours, they make chubby lines and are easy to grip.

The problem with most highlighters though is how quickly they dry up. Not these gel versions. These are usable for up to two years because they are gel based. She will also enjoy how she has to rotate the bottom to bring out the highlighter stick, much like lipsticks. The set has three gel highlighters in green, yellow and pink, which come in a plastic storage box.

Kids are quick to form personal boundaries and identify things as belonging to them or to someone else. They derive great pleasure in things which are marked specifically for them. A great way to make any gift even more appealing to a child is to personalise it. Giving her a book? Write a message in it for her, or buy one where she can write her name. If you are giving her a blanket, stitch a name tag or have her name monogrammed on it.

Personalised gifts, especially personal items for daily use hold a special place in any kid's heart. So if you are still not sure what to get, buy something she uses daily or something she will use often and personalise it for her. Towels, bathrobe, cutlery set, a small bag with her name on it, pretty handkerchiefs, jewellery box, personalised diary or journal, magnets and pendant necklaces with her name are all wonderful gift items that can be personalised. If you are not sure, ask her parents what her favourite cartoon character, colour or hobby is and buy items with these themes; you will not go wrong.
