How to choose a gift for a girl of 8 years old for the New Year?
New Year is a special time, a time for smiles, good mood, faith in the best and fulfillment of desires! Most of all, children are waiting for New Year's miracles. Eight-year-old schoolgirls are no exception. And although they have already crossed the threshold of carefree preschool childhood, they still sincerely believe in Santa Claus, write letters to him and look forward to gifts under the tree. Games and fun activities are still the most favorite leisure activities. Therefore, a New Year's gift must also meet these requirements.
What to give an 8-year-old daughter for a holiday?
A girl at this age is not yet a teenager, but she is no longer a small child. She seeks to imitate her mother, older sister or aunt in many ways, but at the same time the world of toys and dolls remains attractive to her.
Toys for the young princess
- Dolls. It seems that there are already a huge number of them in the house, that it’s just right to open the store ourselves, but the daughter again orders the good wizard with another LOL, Winx, Barbie or an interactive doll. Having learned about this desire, parents often try to reorient their daughter to another more adult gift. But it is important to understand that it is these toys that give girls emotional release from the accumulated school fatigue, through interaction with them they realize their need to communicate with peers, if due to certain circumstances it is not enough.
So for 8 years it is quite normal desire - to receive a new doll as a New Year's present, which needs to be realized so as not to disappoint the little lady on such a bright holiday.
- Dollhouse. The dream of many girls! It is he who becomes the main props for games.Houses for them can be of different types - from small one-story to high luxurious palaces. Games with him are very entertaining and useful.
Playing on the plots, girls try on different roles: wives, hostesses, mothers. They develop design skills by arranging playrooms.
- Soft toy. Receiving it as a gift will surely please your daughter. It is very pleasant to go to bed in an embrace with a teddy bear or a fluffy hare! They give a feeling of comfort and safety. Perhaps the girl collects certain types of toys, and replenishment of her favorite series with one more animal will delight her!
A soft toy-cache will become an original present. You can hide nice little things, hairpins, jewelry or your little secrets in it.
- Lego constructors... There are many different girly episodes. Among 8-year-old women, the most popular are Lego Friends, Lego Elves, Lego Creator. The sets include houses that can be connected into whole neighborhoods, where there are cafes, shopping centers and beauty salons.
Lego games will give the baby positive emotions, open up a lot of room for imagination and develop fine motor skills, which is very important in learning.
- Game set "Ice Cream Factory". It comes in different variations: some come with a special quick-setting plasticine, using which we get bizarre shapes, reminiscent of real ice cream, in others, you can use real products and get really tasty ice cream! For an eight-year-old hostess, the second option will be preferable. She will be able to come up with many types of real original ice cream, albeit small in size.
The set includes different molds and accessories, thanks to which you can make popsicle, split, popsicle or berry ice cream - it all depends on what ingredients will allow her to use at home.
New Year smoothly flows into New Year's holidays, when you want not only to enjoy your home leisure, but also to spend time actively. The mischievous, nimble girl will surely be pleased with the accessories for entertainment and sports.
- Tubing ("cheesecake"). The most favorite winter fun is roller coaster riding! Tubing allows you to ride down the mountain in a fun and comfortable way. When riding, a high speed develops, so it is imperative to choose a model that matches the age and height of the child.
For elementary school children, the diameter of the seat should be no more than 1 meter, so that during fast movement the inertia force does not accidentally throw out the passenger from it.
- Skates. Girls love figure skating, the dream of many is to try on the role of a figure skater and conquer the ice! And even if the skills of proper sliding are absent or far from ideal, such a gift will still bring positive emotions, and the skill will come with experience.
The best option is sliding skate models, then you don't have to buy them every year.
- Rollers... Any child can ride them! Of course, the first movements will not be very easy, but after a couple of sessions, progress will be noticeable. Rollerdromes are intended for training in the winter season, and in summer you can ride in stadiums and parks. Having received the videos for the New Year with hard training in her free time, the daughter will have time to improve her skills by the summer.
- Swimming attributes. If the princess loves to visit the pool, then she will certainly be pleased with a fashionable swimsuit, an original waterproof hat, glasses and arm ruffles, if she has not yet learned to swim confidently.
Modern children love new electronic gadgets, you can consider purchasing them as a New Year's presentation.
- Smartphone. At this age, I want him to be bright and fashionable, no worse than his classmates. Even budget models for kids have all the features and services they need. Mobile Internet, of course, you do not need to connect, just set up Wi-Fi.Receiving the desired gift on the holiday will make the little girl happy!
- Headphones. They can be wired or wireless, and will allow you to get great pleasure listening to songs of your favorite artists or an interesting audiobook.
- Dance rug. My daughter will definitely appreciate such a gift! It represents a dance device that connects to a TV or computer. The rug will not only be a great home entertainment, but will also be useful. It contributes to the development of attention and sports skills, since all muscle groups are included in the work during dance.

What to give a little sister for a holiday
The choice of a gift depends on the age of the older sister. Usually sisters with a small age difference compete with each other, in connection with which quarrels and disagreements often arise. A gift from an eldest will serve as a manifestation of love and friendship, and the best one is made with your own hands. It can even be an ordinary drawing on a topic that is interesting to the little sister (princesses, mermaids, animals), or capturing the bright moments of family life (walks, trips).
You can present a homemade postcard, photo frame, bracelet, plasticine or clay souvenir.
If the difference between the sisters is more than 6 years, then the older one acts as a standard, which one wants to be equal to. The baby wants to be just as beautiful and seem a little more mature. To realize this desire, the older sister (in the presence of a small pocket amount) can give some of the interesting girly accessories:
- bijouterie - pendants, rings, bracelets, beads, earrings will undoubtedly complement and transform the image of a sister;
- box - will definitely come in handy for storing jewelry, small treasures;
- baby cosmetics - lipstick, perfume, cream, glitter will cause the jubilation of the young lady;
- handbag - a thing that will always be needed both for a walk and for going to the cinema.
Whatever the New Year's surprise, its main goal is to bring joy to the child, so that this wonderful family holiday will be remembered for a long time and leave only bright, kind and rosy impressions!
