Picking the perfect gift for a 3 year old can be difficult! But these are items we have tried and loved! And will be a great gift for a 3 year old girl, whether she is your niece, granddaughter or friend!
We will tell you why we love them, and you can click on the pictures or links to find where to purchase them! Trust me these are all things that my 3 year old girls have loved!
Why We Love Them:
Sound books are so fun because they help your little one interact while you are reading. This is the perfect way to get them to enjoy reading while they are young.
Each of the buttons makes various noises that are used in different places in the book.
As you follow the words with your finger and point to each picture she gets to find the button and press it to make the sound!
This is a super fun way to read with little ones to keep them engaged!
Why We Love It:
I like to expose my kids to letters as frequently as possible! No they likely aren’t going to figure them out at 3 but they can focus on the first letter in their name, or names of those in their family.
These Alphabet Wooden Puzzles are a super fun way to do just that! You can not only help them figure out where the pieces go but talk about letters along the way!
Why We Love Them:
It’s so fun to watch your little one care for her dolls! Doll strollers are a great gift for a 3 year old girl because they love taking care of their baby dolls.
It’s fun to watch them push the dolls around and feel so big doing it! There are so many different kinds of doll strollers that you’re bound to find one she will love!
Why We Love Them:
We really love the magnet drawing board that come with the stamps as well as the pen. The kids are so creative with how they use the stamps and it’s fun to watch their creativity come to life.
I like to help my 3 year olds practice how to hold a pen correctly when they draw and this is a great way to do it.
Their pictures erase easily, and I find they enjoy erasing the pictures as much as creating them at times!
Why We Love Them:
I really love Duplo Lego Sets the pieces are big enough you don’t have to worry if your little one still puts things in her mouth! And they are just really fun to build with.
I like that they can create actual houses and such with duplos and then they can interact and play with them.
We have a lot of the Duplos and my kids of all ages really enjoy playing with them!
Why We Love Them:
This was a gift that I was pleasantly surprised at how much my daughter love it! This Fruit cutting set has velcro between each piece of fruit and you cut it apart with a plastic knife.
It made my 3 year old girl feel so big to be able to cut the fruit like mommy does!
The kids get silly and put different pieces together and then cut them apart.
But we absolutely love the fruit cutting set, it makes a great gift for a 3 year old girl!
Why We Love Them:
Another little kitchen piece we love is these cupcake shapes. It’s like a shape sorter but rather than putting the shapes into something, you’re matching the frosting to the cupcake.
These has a cute little cupcake tin that comes with them, and they are still a favorite many years later.
I like that they can have fun while also learning with them!
Why We Love Them:
The Cloud B Twilight Star Nightlights are my favorite nightlight. When you turn them on they illuminate stars on the ceiling. And you can usually change the stars to a few different colors!
They come is lots of different animals, and my kids love them.
I find that around 3 my kids have started to realize that they’re afraid of the dark, and this night light has been a great solution.
One of the best parts is that they automatically turn off so they don’t have a bright light in their eyes all night.
My 4 and 7 year olds still use them on a regular basis, so they are well worth the investment!
Why We Love Them:
I feel like around 3 my daughter loved to start dressing up. She would ask for help changing from costume to costume and loved it!
This set comes with a cute little box to easily store the costumes in so everything is in the same place!
Dressing up is so fun for little girls of all ages, but especially for little 3 year olds!
Why We Love Them:
We bought this coloring desk when my daughter was 3 and she still uses it 4 years later! It has lots of space for art supplies and convenient space on the sides for paper and coloring books.
It’s made of a sturdy plastic and comes clean easily with a magic eraser!
My daughter has spent hours upon hours coloring and creating at her art desk, and it has been one of the best things we’ve bought for her!
We love creative activities and you can find all of our favorite ones here!
