Do you remember your first tea set as a little girl? I certainly do!  It was amongst my most treasured possessions.  My tea set was very small and dainty and made of porcelain.  It was white, with hand-painted pink flowers on it.  I don’t imagine it was terribly expensive, but I thought it was precious!  When it comes to idea gift ideas for a little girl, a tea set simply must be on the list!

Gift Ideas for a Little Girl – Younger Children

Of course, when it comes to little girls, they come in all ages (don’t we?!).  So if you are seeking a special gift for a really young child, a plastic set may be the best way to go.  For safety’s sake, a plastic tea set will not cause any injury due to broken china!  And they are lighter than other options, so make an ideal choice for a very first tea set.

Just because a tea set is plastic does not mean it is not beautiful, or precious or special!  Explore Tea Party Girl’s favorite choices here:

Tin Tea Sets – Also Great Gift Ideas for a Little Girl

A tin tea set is also a terrific idea for younger children, particularly if you have an aversion to plastic products.  Many of us are making more selective choices around plastic products these days, so this is understandable.  Tin Tea sets as they are still awfully pretty, still light, and still durable.  Just perfect for young children to play with.

Tin Tea Sets will never go out of style, and can remain a family heirloom for generations.  Do  you recall the array of tin toys from the ‘good ‘ol days’?  I went to great lengths to find my son a traditional tin spinning top, because I recall a tin spinning top from my childhood! (I have no idea where I played with it.  I don’t think I ever owned one!)  There were tin pedal cars and tin fire engines.  So, tin tea sets are a tradition in themselves.  Here are some of our favorites:

These are so very precious.  There is something about a beautiful, miniature porcelain tea set that is almost even more charming than a full size adult tea set!  The smaller size is so dainty, so pretty, so appealing.  Mothers and Grandmothers can reminisce with the little girls in their life when they gift one of these delightful tea sets.
