| I'm having a hard time finding gifts for my 12 year old daughter. Can anyone recommend things they're getting their tween daughters--or things they've gotten in the past that your daughter has liked? |

you didn't give any interests or pricing but consider the following
hair accessories (scrunchies, claw clips, headbands) airpods airpod case portable speakers uggs clothes- brandy melville, target etc lip gloss, chapsticks, eye shadows, nail stickers a cross body bag? |

sweat pants
hoodie fairy lights book series video games |
| Cakepop maker |
| Tell us about her. |
| Yes, what does she like? Etsy and other sites have really cute things that teens like. For instance, my niece likes an anime show so I got her a sweatshirt and water bottle stickers of her favorite anime show charcters. My daughter loves books so I got her a shirt and book bag with things related to books. There are so many fun things out there if you look by interest. |
+1 for this. My kids are slightly younger, but pretty much beyond the toy phase, and I’ve found lots of neat things for them on Etsy. |

At 12, my crafty (but not necessarily artistically inclined) DD absolutely loved the RoLife miniature model kits and ROKR wooden model kits. These were pretty much her pandemic lifesaver. Her favorites were the library/bookstore and the Japanese house, as well as the functional wooden clock.
If you do purchase kits like these, she found the Beacon 3-in-1 Craft Glue that frequently shows up in the “Customers Also Purchased” lists on Amazon to be really useful, because it’s much less stringy and more forgiving that the stuff that comes with the kits. Also, a tool set like this one is helpful if you don’t already have a lot of stuff on hand: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071LB1T5D/?coliid=I2R1YRID2U5LQP&colid=18VHB98XDF6Z3&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it. My DD was happy not to have to ask us every time she needed tweezers, files, wire cutters, etc, and pretty much everything she needed (besides glue) was in there. |

DD turns 12 in January and I agree is very hard to shop for this year. She wants a giant Lego set, the complete collection of one of her favorite book series so that she doesn't have to keep checking them out of the library, and the requisite request for a rabbit or guinea pig.
We're also getting her a wearable blanket, earrings, a new bike helmet, a sweater from Zara and probably something else. She's not into makeup yet, even if we would let her wear it. Will watch this thread since we also have her birthday just a month after Christmas. |
NP - which book series? |
