The Best Etsy Gifts For 6 Year Olds | Etsy Gift Guide

I don’t know about you guys, but I have an invitation list as long as my arm for birthday parties that are happening during the Summer Holidays. Don’t get me wrong, I love that my kids get invited to all these gatherings, but I do struggle sometimes to find gifts that I know the birthday boy/girl will really enjoy and get use out of. This year, I’ve decided to leave my shopping experience in the capable hands of Etsy, and use their brilliant sellers and guides to help me find the best gifts for 6 year olds. 

Etsy is the home of unique, quirky, and handmade goodies, so I was confident that I would be able to find plenty of fun gift ideas for all the children I needed to buy for this summer. So, if you’re looking for affordable, sweet, fun, and cute gifts for 6 year olds, keep reading as I share the Best Etsy Gifts For 6 Year Olds this year.

Personalised Jewellery

Etsy is well-known for the customisation options many of it’s sellers offer, and that’s one of the aspects that make it such a great site when it comes to buying gifts for children. I’m sure many parents will have seen the rise in cute bead bracelets and necklaces, especially since the start of Taylor Swift’s Eras tour.

These customised pieces of jewellery make great gifts for 6 year olds, and they’re ideal to wear throughout the summer holidays too. I personally love these gorgeous charm bracelets and bright, colourful bead necklaces that can be found on Etsy. 

Customised Clothing & Accessories

One of the best ways to mark a birthday is, of course, with some customised clothing. I love getting my own boys a personalised t shirt or hoodie each year. Customised t shirts make great keepsakes and I would love to turn all my children’s customised birthday t shirts into a big quilt one day to gift to them when they’re older. 

There are a few choices when it comes to personlised items of clothing when considering gifts for 6 year olds. Firstly, there’s the classic number t shirt or hoodie. These tops feature the age of the child and their name. These are cute and simple and look great when it comes to those impromptu birthday photo shoots. 

If you want something a little more creative, the Etsy seller, FandangoUK, sells beautiful personalised t shirts that kids can colour in themselves. These shirts have been designed to encourage children to use their creativity by using the special fabric pens provided. These tops are more than simply a one-time-use item of clothing, however, as you are able to wash the tops which removes all traces of the pen, ready for the little artists to start all over again! 

For the football lovers, this personalised football hoodie is absolutely dreamy. With a more ‘grown up’ design, this hoodie would be suited to dire hard football fans. With a silhouetted football motif on the front and a customisable name down the arm of the hoodie, it’s great for both boys and girls and starts at sizes 5 – 6 years. 

Finally, when it comes to clothing and accessories, I can’t leave out these very cute personalised sunglasses. These would make such great little gifts for 6 year olds, whether you wrap them on their own, or pair them with a cute summer hat, a personalised bag, or a new summer outfit. 

Crafts and Bedroom Decor

If there’s one thing I know my child loves, it’s crafts. When hunting for gifts for 6 year olds, don’t be afraid to venture over to the craft section of Etsy; once you’re there, you’ll find some beautiful child-friendly kits that make ideal gifts! 

One of the craft kits that I really like is from the Etsy seller, LittleHandyCraftsUK. Over in their store, you’ll find this adorable personalised painting craft pack which allows the child to paint their own name. The kit has everything that the child will need to create their masterpiece and, once dry, this little craft can be proudly displayed in their bedroom. 

A few other craft packs that look like they’d also make great gifts for 6 year olds include the DIY Fairy Garden Kit with LED lights – and this amazing solar painting kit that allows you to create magical pieces of art using only sunlight and water. 

When it comes to gifts for 6 year olds, you can’t go wrong with a bit of personalised bedroom decor. Whether you gift one of the craft packs above, or you purchase something like these cute bedroom LED signs by BeeCreativeOnline or FromWillow you’ll know that it’ll be a big hit!
