Of all the ages and stages a child goes through in her life, being 7 is one of the best. We don’t have to tell you that your kid is bursting with creativity and new ideas, which makes sense since they’ve reached an age where they’re more capable of thinking about the world around them. So how do you find gifts for 7-year-old girls that are as amazing as they are? We have some ideas that will hopefully encourage all of that energy, imagination, brilliance, and creativity.

Another neat thing about 7-year-olds is that, from a developmental standpoint, this is an age where they begin to get a lot more social … like … a lot. So we’ve made sure to include a lot of toys that are perfect for sharing with friends that will encourage bonding, empathy, and, of course, fun, so that they’ll want to play with them again and again.

If you need more gift ideas, we have guides for 5-year-old girls, and 6-year-old girls, too.
