You want to set the young girls in your life on the right path. At FangirlNation we believe that the young women in our lives should be supported now. If you’re looking for some awesome suggestions for holiday gifts, here are some suggestions.
Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls Box Set
The Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls series reinvents the bedtimes story with histories of incredible women. Whether you’re wanting to know more about past figures or modern strong women, this book series helps your strong daughter get a good night’s sleep, and increase her knowledge. This set features art by 70 female artists from around the world and a double satin bookmark to keep your place. Also, it’s made with soy and vegetable based inks, if that’s something that’s important to you.
Based on the website of the same name, Rejected Princesses‘ Jason Porath has collected a group of histories of famous women from the past. Like women, not all of these stories are without problems or rough histories, so the collection marks each story with an indication of whether it is safe for your young one before bed, or if it needs to be reserved for your older kids. Personally, this is one of my favorite collections.
If you want your little one to get interested in the arts, check out this Frida Kahlo Plush Doll. She even comes with a small monkey on her shoulder. The doll comes with a removable tag with her portrait, quotes, and achievements.
