We live in the age of selfies and photos captured on smart devices, but what happens when you want a physical picture in your hand? This is where this printer can step in. Send your high-resolution images via Bluetooth to this mini printer, and let it transfer them to quality prints.

Use the parental control features to limit your child’s screen time, protect them online, and monitor their usage.

This tablet comes with a charger, and the battery will last for up to ten hours on a single charge.

This is great for shooting videos on the move, with its stabilization that corrects shaky footage. It’s ideal if she wants to capture footage when skateboarding, cycling, swimming, or skiing. There’s even a photo timer, so she can set it up, jump into a group shot, or take a selfie.

Many girls love singing — whether it’s by themselves, with the family, or with a group of friends. This karaoke system kicks up the fun to another level with its disco lights and great-sounding microphone.

When singing songs you don’t know all the words to, you can hook the machine up to a television and read the words off the screen as you sing along.

Use Bluetooth to connect the machine to any music-playing device, such as your mobile phone. That will enable you to play any song you could ever want for free. You can also download the free Mobile Karaoke app to any iOS device to access a library of thousands of on-demand karaoke tracks.

For fans of Harry Potter, this 100% cotton T-shirt would be a good choice. Whether they fancy themselves in Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw, there is a T-shirt for them. Two stickers are enclosed with each item to decorate your girl’s schoolbag, PC, or anything else they want.

The T-shirts are pre-shrunk and can be machine washed and tumble-dried on low heat.

Accessories will now be coming into play for girls of this age. They might not want to take a backpack when visiting the mall with friends or going to a restaurant with you. Why not get them their own handbag for those essentials they want to carry?

These cotton bags from Vera Bradley will make a statement. Available in 19 colored patterns, they have a fabric lining and zippered closure. There are also three zippered pockets on the outside.

She can use the 56-inch adjustable strap to wear the bag across her body or over her shoulder.

Ugg has been a go-to brand for years. If your 11-year-old hankers after a pair of Ugg boots, but you feel they are too expensive, these slippers are the ideal compromise.

The pretty pink slippers have a suede outer and natural wool lining. They will keep feet toasty and warm when it’s cold but let them breathe when it’s hot. The rubber soles ensure your young lady doesn’t slide around hardwood or tile floors.

If your child is wearing adult-sized footwear, you can purchase a similar model in larger sizes.

Alex and Ani jewelry is quite popular. This bangle features an adorable turtle and four Alex and Ani customized charms. The bangle is made in an eco-conscious way and is matte silver-plated on brass.

The turtle represents protection and strength through difficult times. What better way to support your 11-year-old through her ever-changing life at this age? We love that 20% of the purchase price of this bangle goes to a charity supporting young adults impacted by conflicts in the world.

This lovely necklace is made from .925 sterling silver plated with platinum. The pendant is an initial, so you can choose whichever letter is appropriate for your child. The initial is studded with Swarovski Zirconia, and the stones are cut in the same way as diamonds.

The sparkle will appeal to most girls, and yours will likely be proud to wear this personalized piece of jewelry. The 18-inch cable chain has a 2-inch extender, so she can adjust it to be the perfect length.

The water bottle is made of stainless steel and is BPA- and phthalate-free. It has a straw lid and comes in multiple colors. The wide mouth allows you to put ice cubes in the bottle.

It can keep cold beverages chilly for up to 24 hours and hot ones warm for up to 12. It’s not inexpensive, but the quality is great, so it will hold up year after year.

No gift we have ever given our daughter has gotten as much use as the Crayola Melt ‘N Mold Factory. It’s been going strong for years and still continues to crank out multi-colored creations like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle emblems, rings, new crayons, and pendant charms.

My daughter and her friends and cousins, ranging in age from 6 to 14, all love to make creations with this kit. It’s so simple that parents don’t have to get involved. Although let me tell you, you’ll want to make your own trinket — it’s oddly quite fun.

Remove the wrappers from the broken crayon pieces in your stash, and place them in the warming tray. Close the cover, turn the machine on, and watch the crayons melt into liquid wax. When the light turns off, use the switch to pour the tray into whichever mold you have chosen. Allow them to harden, remove your cool new crayons, and enjoy!

My daughter has made hundreds of creations and has given them out to classmates for room parties at school and has stuffed them in goody bags for parties. The uses for this little machine are endless.

Girls at this age will undoubtedly be starting to show an interest in fashion. They may already have their own touches of flair and style. This Fashion Design sketchbook will let them experiment with color and styles.

It has removable plastic stencils they can use to create over 100 clothing and accessory items on the 40 preprinted sketch pages. The portfolio will keep them occupied as they design their unique fashions.

Clear lip balm is a good starting point for an 11-year-old girl wanting to wear lipstick. This kit has everything she needs to make her own. There is shea butter and Safflower oil to help moisturize and beeswax beads to create the base and help prevent bacteria.

This set includes six tubes and jars you can store your lip balm in once it’s made and labels to let you personalize your creations. We like that the contents are gluten-free and there are two flavors to choose from.

Your 11-year-old will learn the process of creating lip gloss while she gets to be creative in mixing the ingredients. Who knew STEM learning could be so cool?

As a bonus, the company has added a cloth bag and magazine for your preteen.

Friendship bracelets are a fad that never goes out of style, especially at this age when friends mean so much to girls. This kit contains all the yarn and full instructions to make 12 bracelets. You could choose simple designs and then move on to more detailed, intricate ones.

Create patterns, including chevrons, zigzags, or broken ladders, and incorporate some of the beads which are supplied. There are 10 different colored embroidery flosses. We appreciate that the bracelet can be clipped to the book next to the simple instructions when it’s being made.

Bath bombs are a great way to introduce an 11-year-old to bathtime beauty. Why not let them make their own? This kit has all the ingredients, instructions, and fragrances to make 12 cupcake bath bombs.

The set includes 100% pure essential oils for fragrances — a healthier option than perfumes and chemical-based scents. Just ensure your kids wear the enclosed gloves when adding the oils, as pure essential oils should not touch the skin ⁽¹⁾.

Latching is an easy pick-up-and-put-down craft for 11-year-old girls. This pre-printed canvas will be great for them to either hang on their wall or use as a mini-rug once it’s completed. After all, what girl doesn’t love a unicorn?

Do you have a girl with boundless energy? A trampoline is a great way to bounce some of it away and have fun at the same time. Zuppa brings us this trampoline, available in three diameters: 12 feet, 14 feet, or 15 feet.

We like the safety features of this trampoline. It has no gaps between the jumping mat and the outer spring pad, meaning there’s less chance of injury. There’s also a galvanized steel frame with a safety net and a ladder.

This cool pink scooter will have your girl whizzing around the neighborhood. It’s made from super-strong aircraft-grade aluminum and has 8-inch urethane wheels. This scooter is built with older kids in mind and has adjustable handlebars, so it can grow with them.

It has a rear fender brake and a kickstand. The scooter is collapsible, which is great for storage or taking it away on camping weekends or day trips.

Volleyball is a great way for girls to get some exercise. Why not get her a lightweight volleyball of her own? This one from Tachikara is designed for kids under 12.

It’s made from a microfiber composite leather and has a butyl bladder. This ball is good for getting kids started on this fun outdoor or indoor sport without the impact of a heavier ball. Be warned; the ball is delivered deflated, so you’ll need a pump or compressor to inflate it before use.

This game is a new take on the old capture the flag game. It’s designed to be played outdoors at night or indoors with the lights off. The rules are simple: pick your teams, mark territories and jails, hide the flag (orb), and then play.

This kit has 25 pieces that light up, including glow bracelets, flags, and boundary markers. There are 12 cards, giving you variations on the basic game. You could be werewolves and hunters or wizards and ghouls. We like that all the batteries you need are also supplied, so the game is ready to go out of the box.

This game is like volleyball but with a difference. The set includes a round net on foldable legs that you place on the floor and three soft balls. Bounce the ball off the net, then watch your opponents try to keep it in the air before bouncing it back to your side.

You can adjust the net to give more or less bounce to the ball depending on how hard you want the game to be. Spikeball offers a lifetime guarantee and will replace any part that breaks free of charge. A drawstring transport bag and rulebook are included.

Get your girl walking tall with these fun stilts. They are suitable for kids between 4 feet 6 inches and 6 feet 6 inches tall. You can quickly and easily adjust the step height from 12 inches to 17 inches off the floor.

These stilts are lightweight but strong, with comfortable shoulder rests and easy-grip handles made from soft foam. The rubber feet make these stilts suitable for outdoor or indoor use, as they won’t mark your floors.

Lego has stood the test of time and still remains a firm favorite after many decades. This dollhouse has so much to offer an 11-year-old girl. It builds into a two-story house with a porch, lounge, kitchen, office, spiral staircase, bathroom, bedroom, and rabbit hutch.

The set includes many accessories like stained-glass windows, furniture, kitchen appliances, and bedroom furniture. There’s even a swing chair that can be placed on the porch for the three Minifigures to sit on.

Travel the length and breadth of the U.S. with this fun board game. It’s suitable for two to six players, and we like that it only takes 30 to 60 minutes to play.

The object of the game is to travel by train to as many cities as you can. You claim the routes as you go by connecting your trains. The longer the route, the more points you get.

All the trains, cards, scoring markers, and a board map are included, along with a rule booklet.

This is like a kiddie version of Cards Against Humanity. It encourages kids to interact with friends and family in a silly way. It’s a fill-in-the-gap game where players choose the best — or worst — card in their hand with hilarious results.

You could be making vampire bunnies or leotards that ride up your butt for the school fair. Let’s be honest; anything that is not parent-approved will be fun for a kid to play.

Do you remember the Rubik’s cube and how frustrating it could be? This cool game is based on the principle of arranging colored squares in a similar way. Each player has a grid and has to match the colored squares that appear in the scrambler when it’s shaken.

The winner of the game is the one who can match the grid in the scrambler the quickest. This 2-player game gets kids’ brains working as they try to figure out which way to move their squares.

Has your 11-year-old girl been caught up in collecting L.O.L Surprise dolls? If so, this could be just the gift for her. If not, why not get her collection started?

Time to show your kids where girl power originates from, whether it’s calculating the trajectory of a rocket to the moon or finding a cure for a disease.

Snap Circuits allow your child to use ordinary building bricks to make unique creations. She can learn how to raise a drawbridge or light a tower.

The kit includes 75 Bric-2-Snap adapters, 20 Snap Circuits component parts, and more than 140 building bricks. You can add to the projects with other bricks, such as Lego, allowing for endless creative possibilities.

This system of cubes lets you build marble runs in a fun way. There are 156 cubes, including double-sided cubes, nine stunt pieces, eight marble catchers, and 30 steel marbles. Build a geometric shape, an animal, or a building. Pop the marbles in, and see where they end up.

There are details for suggested structures included, or you can let your imagination be your guide. With so many options, the fun is never-ending, and your marbles might not run the same way each time.

Chemistry experiments are fun, and this is a good introductory kit. It contains all your child needs to start exploring the effects of bases and acids or learn how solids, gases, and liquids react with each other. They can get foaming, fizzy reactions, or write messages using invisible ink.

A 48-page manual gives easy-to-follow instructions for 28 different experiments. It also explains to your child what happened and why, letting them learn the reasons behind their actions.

This kit is something completely different. It uses the physics of light, sound, and heat to let your girl play at being a bioengineer.

Three sensors are used to collect data from the world around her. The data is uploaded to an Android or iOS device via Bluetooth from the base station to create creatures and their worlds. She might find that low-temperature readings will give her creature lots of hair, while quiet sound readings might give it big ears.

Continue to collect data to create habitats, feed and care for your creatures, and generate more. You can even print the creature if you have access to a 3D printer.

Sometimes keeping the lines of communication open between a mom and her tween daughter can be tough. This journal is an excellent way for moms and tween girls to bond and share experiences, thoughts, and even concerns.

This lovely hardcover book has illustrations, mini quizzes for mom and daughter, and lots of space for open-ended writing. I like that this journal lets moms and daughters get to know each other’s feelings better, which can bring them closer together.

This is the charming, amusing, and sometimes difficult story of Peppi Torres’ journey through the trying times at her new school. After bumping into Jamie, a boy the mean girls classify as a nerd, and falling victim to their taunts, she distances herself from him.

The tale tells of Peppi’s struggles when her art club clashes with Jamie’s science club. How will Peppi and Jamie’s relationship survive as rivals unfold? Part of a three-book series, this could be a funny yet supportive read for this trying age.

Sometimes you can’t decide on an 11th birthday gift for a tween and want to give them cash to spend how they want. Maybe they’re saving up to buy themselves something special and have asked for a contribution toward it. However, handing over dollars in a card or envelope is so boring.
