Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best gifts for 12 year old girls for their birthday?

With many changes on the horizon, 12 year old girls are independent thinkers and enjoy exploring their own choices with sports, hobbies and interests. Girls are sociable in nature and love to spend time with their friends and family. It is a time of building a strong identity, with most kids this age enjoying gadgets, jewelry and trinkets that reflect this. We have tried and tested gifts that are perfect for girls specifically at this age.

What gifts for 12 year old tween girls are best?

A tweens bedroom is her castle and when it comes to gifts, funky lights and decor are a great idea. Our Origami Flower Lights, the light up Neon Effect Message Frame and color changing Jellyfish Lamp are the perfect additions to any bedroom! Check out our gifts sorted by popularity to not only get the best gifts, but also the most popularly gifted!

What is a typical 12 year old girl like?

This is it - the last year before she's a teenager. 12 is a milestone year for a number of reasons, so help her make the most of it!

Teenage emotions are a wild ride, and you'll get a taste of them this year. Prepare for high highs and low lows - every victory is the best day ever, and any setback, no matter how minor, is worthy of a Shakespearean tragedy. (But she'll probably study <i>Hamlet</i> in high school, so this is just practice.) At 12, she'll still love the important adults in her life - she'll just want nothing to do with them! 

While there will be moments this year when she acts like the young child you've always known, she's also growing into a young adult. This is a developmental stage where kids start finding leadership skills. Allow her to be involved in decision-making at home, and encourage her participation in community or school activities. She'll be happier and more confident when she feels she has a say in things.

But ultimately, she's just 12 - she's still figuring out who she is as a person. She's beginning to question the beliefs and values she grew up with. And there may be some big changes coming up. Is she a fast food fanatic who can't get enough of Big Macs? Try not to be too surprised if she becomes a loud and proud vegetarian overnight! Her beliefs may be different than yours, but she's carving out her own path in life. Encourage her to explore her interests - or as Shakespeare put it, "to thine own self be true". (Anything to help her get a headstart on <i>Hamlet</i>!)

Great Products, Great Service

I Googled Cool Presents for My Niece, and this was the first result that looked interesting. I didn't hurt that I'm a also a Wicked Uncle.I was stoked that there was such a great selection and that most (if not all?) WASN'T Made in China. I found a few great gifts AND they gift wrap (it's cool wrap no less) AND you can add a hand-written card. Well worth the extra ten bucks or so when your shipping out of state. My niece LOVED her gifts and I got compliments on the gift wrap and everyone was happy. All for under $100. Thank you Wicked Uncle! I will be using your services going forward for all my kid gift needs.

Recovered losses!

I needed to find some gifts for my 9 year old grandson's birthday! Wicked Uncle came through with great ideas for his age group. I also needed tohave them delivered the day before his birthday as I am in Mexico and my grandson is in Colorado Springs. I paid for quicker delivery service that was to get it to him by Friday, however it did not get to him until after his birthday! Wicked Uncle not only reimbursed me for the delivery charge, but also gave back some funds for my anxiety! I will certainly;y use Wicked Uncle in the future!!! Very Happy!

A Grandparent's Source of Fun Gifts for grandchildren

Excellent. As a grandmother who has no idea what children under 10 would like and knowing that my grandchildren have stuff already,I can always find gifts the kids like and don't have at Wicked Uncle. It helps that you can put gender and age in the website's search engine, and then lots of ideas.

Would 100% purchase from them again!

The experience as a whole was amazing! I'm usually the gift card uncle so it was nice to be able to give an actualgift. They even offered to gift-wrap. I was able to be there when my nephew opened the gift and the look on his face was priceless, he immediately wanted to try out the gift even before opening the other gifts. Thank you to Wicked Uncle.

Unique gift for curious child

I ordered the NatGeo Adventure Scope - Flexible Digital Camera to Explore. My grandson is in a stem stage as it was his party's theme.I hit a home run with this one! The quality of the gift was impressive! There are other brands out there on other sites. Don't be swayed! This is the one you want! My gift was delivered on time. The package contained a unique surprise. It was a thank you note for the child to fill out and send . Very cute! My grandson got a kick out of filling it out.
