Best Gifts For Middle Schoolers
1. Treats
Get her favorite treats as a gift and she will be over the moon about it.
My daughter is bananas about Extra Watermelon flavored gum and Lindor Truffles.
2. Water Bottle
First up, we have to talk about water bottles. They are all the rage right now.
The top water bottles include the Stanley Quencher and the Hydro Flask. If you don’t know her favorite color, ask because that is what she will want.
3. Camera
The Instax Mini Camera is so good and so much fun for middle school girls.
Add a box of 2 of film to go with it because she will fly through it. The film also makes amazing Christmas stocking stuffers and Easter basket fillers.
There is also a camera bag that goes with this camera and I highly suggest getting it because as careful as your girl is, that camera will probably be better off in a case.
4. Sugar Body Scrub
Tree Hut makes an amazing sugar body scrub that is super popular right now with tweens and teens.
Tell your girl to only use it about once a week though. It is an exfoliant and using it too often could cause skin irritation.
My teen niece asked for this last Christmas and the Coco Colada scent smelled so good that I had to try it out too. It does a great job exfoliating the skin!
5. Lotion
If she is not into a fragrant lotion or has sensitive skin, go with Aveeno Fragrance-Free lotion. It is so hydrating.
6. Body Spray
Sol De Janeiro Hair and Body Fragrance Mist is also incredibly popular with middle and high school girls. Girl, this stuff smells so good!
7. String Lights
She will want to hang these lights up immediately and will love them. They give off quite a bit of light too for being so small.
Use mini command hooks to hang them up. Scotch tape also works since they are so light.
8. Saucer Chair
This saucer chair will make a perfect addition to her bedroom.
She can lounge in it, read and write in it, listen to music, and the list goes on and on.
Just the other day my kids had a virtual learning day and my daughter did it from the comfort of her saucer chair.
9. Books
My daughter loves reading, and I mean LOVES it. Books are always on her gift list and I am more than happy to help her out.
Some of her top favorites include The Little House Series, The Penderwicks, and Anne of Green Gables.
10. Kindle
Since my daughter is so into reading, we got her a Kindle for her birthday last year. Get the case to go with it because it will get dropped at some point.
To save yourself some dollars, have her check out eBooks from your local public library to her Kindle.
11. Drawing Kit
If she drawing is more her hobby, get her drawing supplies.
She can never have enough sketch pads or drawing pencils.
12. Writing Kit
A notebook along with fun pens is an easy and cheap gift that you can give in her Christmas stocking or Easter basket.
13. Personalized Stationery
Middle school girls love personalized stuff and this personalized stationery does not disappoint.
You can pair it with pens and stamps and she will be all set to write letters.
14. Watch
If she wants a watch but has never worn one before, don’t waste your money on an expensive one. Try this fitness tracker first. It tells the time and has a step count, which she will be obsessed with.
My daughter and oldest son both have one now and they wear it every single day.
15. Nail Polish
If your girl likes to wear nail polish then get her a new bottle or 2.
Essie nail polish has a ton of colors to choose from and the quality is amazing. Get her a clear top coat as well to make the polish last even longer.
17. Hair Accessories
Now that your girl is in middle school, having her hair look good is a big thing.
She needs a good hairbrush. This one works on all hair types.
She also needs good hair ties and hair clips.
18. Belt Bag
When I first saw this bag, I was like???
Now though, I am like this is the perfect bag for middle school girls.
It is just the right size to hold all the things they need.
19. Lip Balm
A good lip balm is essential for every girl and EOS is it. It comes as a stick lip balm and a sphere lip balm.
If you don’t know what scent/flavor to go with – vanilla is always a solid option.
Or maybe she is just starting to be interested in lip gloss. Maybelline Lifter Gloss is perfect for her. It is so comfortable on the lips and incredibly affordable for you.
20. Travel Mirror
She is going to be on the go with school activities and sleepovers and she cares more about making sure her face and hair look good. This is the travel mirror for her.
It is so slim that she can even carry it in her backpack.
21. Socks
Your girl will love slipping on these cozy socks.
My daughter likes to wear them over a pair of socks and they have little grippers on the bottom too.
22. Sherpa Fleece Blanket
This is the perfect blanket to snuggle under to watch a movie or read a book. It also will look great on her bed.
It is so good that you are going to want one too!
We don’t have enough of these blankets that everyone can have their own but my kids are always fighting over them.
23. Board Games
Get your girl a board game or 2. It is something she can do when her friends are over, besides watching a movie.
Trivial Pursuit Family Edition and Catch Phrase are fun games for middle school girls.
24. Taylor Swift Merch
Is your girl a Swiftie? There is so much merch out there that it is hard to choose.
At the very least, you should get your swiftie a bracelet making kit.
25. Winter Hat and Gloves
If you like anywhere true winter happens then your girl needs a winter hat and decent gloves.
She will stay nice a cozy in this CC lined winter hat along with these texting gloves.
26. School Gear
Get your girl some school gear like a t-shirt, sweatshirt, athletic pants, or even a hat.
We are lucky enough to have a shop in our town that makes these. You can check with the school. Sometimes they have a school store.
