We didn't even know that slippers had the potential to be this cute until we saw these Frankie Frog Plush Slippers ($22, originally $38). Beyond their adorable design, these frog slippers also come equipped with a heating technology that will help keep your kiddo warm long into the winter.

Home decorating and design might not be at the top of your 10-year-old's list of interests, but you can help kickstart their passion for interior decorating young with these LED Photo Clip String Lights With Remote ($39). The smart lights will add such a radiant touch to your growing kiddo's bedroom. Plus, they can even hang photos from them, too!

Got a kiddo who's always on the go from school to an afternoon sport's practice and beyond? They might appreciate receiving this Athleta Girl Take on the Universe Headband ($10) in their stocking this year! The accessory doubles as a great gift for 10-year-old girls who prefer to opt for a more effortless and laid-back hairstyle.

If Margot Robbie roller skating around Venice Beach as Barbie didn't make you want to own a pair of roller skates, then these Impala Rollerskates ($110) definitely will. The skates make for a great active gift for 10-year-olds who are looking to spend less time online and more of their free time outdoors.

If your 10-year-old has a lot of free time on their hands, we recommend gifting them with something that can provide endless entertainment, all while encouraging them to use their hands to build something really special — just like this Light-Up Terrarium Kit For Kids ($25, originally $35).

While they might not be ready to starting baking like a pro and using the oven unsupervised just yet, your 10-year-old can still sharpen their baking skills at home with the help of this Riki's Kingdom Kids Baking Set ($32). With baking trays, whisks, spatulas, and so much more, this baking set comes complete with everything your kiddo might need to cook up something sweet.

If you're on the fence about whether or not they're old enough to have high-tech headphones or accessories just yet, we recommend gifting them these Noot Products Kids Headphones ($18, originally $19), which provide all the same capabilities of classic headphones (making them a great gift for music-lovers), just in a more kid-friendly design.

This trippy Urban Outfitters Brilliant Ideas Crescent Moon Projector ($25, originally $35) is so cool, and will definitely add a unique flair to your kid's room. It's perfect for any stellar or out-of-this-world child who loves space and wants to get a glimpse of the night sky all from the comforts of their own bedroom.

Sometimes a personalized gift just feels more meaningful. And if you're looking to splurge on more of an investment gift for your 10-year-old, then Kate Spade is always a great place to start. With this Kate Spade New York One in a Million Initial Pendant Necklace ($58), you'll make them feel special with the prettiest pendant.

With this Icee Slushie Making Machine ($140, originally $150), they can enjoy a refreshing and totally sweet treat whenever they want. It looks and operates just like a traditional slushie-maker, and all they'll need is water, ice, and Icee flavoring syrup to make something truly decadent.
