How Do I select Gifts?
When I select gifts, I am always looking for value, educational components, and longevity. I hate buying my grandchildren a toy to find out they quit playing with it the same week they got it. I look for age appropriateness, durability, and all in all; if your child will like it.
When giving gifts it is important to make a list of things you think they might like. Remember we tend to give gifts we would have liked or like. Be careful. Think about who the recipient of the gift is, their personality, what do they do in their free time. So, think to the past. Ask yourself what does this person need? Is there something you know they want but will never buy themselves? Make a care package containing many different things they will like.
Eight-year-old girls tend to love the sparkly things so you can do a gift basket with nail polish, make-up, colors, crayons, jewelry, and just about anything fun. Add some candy!
FAQs About Gift for the 8-Year-Old Girl
What do 8-year-old girls want for their birthday?

My favorites are Electric Scooter & Mini Bike because this is a toy that will be played with for a long time and I love seeing the kids smile and have fun. A birthday gift that will bring pleasure to the whole family. Just watching them is fun.

What is the best gift for an 8 or 9-year-old girl?
My granddaughter loved this! What an 8-year-old doesn’t like to get messy and play with slime. Looks fun to me. I am all for the learning toys. How fun to make your own slime? The Slime Kit is a great way for 8-year-olds to explore science and learn how to make slime. Fun and learning are awesome.
Mom’s and daughters have a special connection. A fun idea is the Mother/Daughter Pass Journal. What special moments you can build sharing a journal of thoughts and fun things you did each day! Great communication!

My Final Word
I want one. My granddaughter has asked for a hoverboard for Christmas this year. This is on my list. It looks so fun and she can hook up her phone for fun cruising. I love music so having a blue tooth is a plus for me. The TOMOLOO Hoverboard is an amazing birthday or Christmas gift for the 8 year old girl.
