Our favorite empowered girl gifts for fierce young females of all ages

 

 

The girls in our lives are woke, they’re working hard, and they’re going to change the world, mark our words.

For those girls who’d love some acknowledgement of their inner warrior this holiday, we’re featuring some of the most amazing empowered girl gifts that let them know we believe in them.

We also love that nearly all these gifts support small businesses, indie makers, women authors, and women-run companies. Work!

 

 

We’re thrilled to bring you this selection of awesome empowered girls’ gifts on behalf of our sponsor IAmElemental, the collection of mom-created, Toy of The Year nominated, fierce, fab, female action heroes who use their powers for good.

We’ve been thrilled to support IAmElemental since their massively successful crowdfunding campaign launch because they stand for everything that is good about play, including self-empowerment, seeing yourself as your own hero, and the power of imagination.

PLACEHOLDER

From Courage, Bravery and Honesty (love those wings!) in the Courage series, to Creativity, Ingenuity, Logic, and Mastery in the new Wisdom Series, girls will be able to relate to every single one of these healthy, strong action figures.

Our own kids (boys and girls) are huge fans, and we know yours will be too.

Be sure to enter our $500 Etsy gift card giveaway and help support more indie makers and artists this holiday!
