Girls of 8 enjoy everything from their Nintendo DS and Playstations to their teddies. When choosing a present for an 8 year old bear in mind that she is becoming more sophisticated and experimenting with grown up things like make up and jewellery and keeping a diary. Maybe she likes listening to pop music or even singing along with karaoke. But deep down she is just a little girl who still takes her teddy to bed and even her baby blanket!
