Fun and Smart Gift Ideas for 6-Year-Old Girls

Chances are, every time you blink, it seems your 6-year-old girl has outgrown yet another pair of shoes they’ve only worn twice. So why would we recommend getting roller skates? Well, because these skates adjust up to three sizes, so your kiddo can enjoy them for a longer time.

OK, so you’re never going to get her a pony, but an interactive rainbow zebra is surely a great consolation prize. This sweet companion responds to your 6-year-old’s pets and hugs with whinnies, winks, and nuzzles. It’s always fun when your toys love you back!
