Army Themed Gift Ideas for Girls

Giant 5 Foot Romantic Teddy Bear Wearing Army Tshirt

The military isn't just for the boys, and plenty of girls now aspire to do their bits for their country and join the armed forces. If a girl in your life is an aspiring soldier or just really likes supporting the troops, then why not get her an army themed gift for her birthday or for Christmas?

Army Outfit Dolls
American Girl

First of all, for younger girls and girls who love to collect plushies and teddy bears, why not buy her an army themed bear? You can get some truly awesome ones out there, in particular the gigantic bear featured above - I have a similar one and it is really big and huggable! It's head is actually bigger than mine, its really quite funny, and its a wonderful gift. If you are on a budget or you are looking for a smaller but equally adorable teddy, here is a very cute one which even sings. I'm sure she will love it!

Younger girls who have a doll collection may also appreciate getting a cute army themed doll or action figure for their collection. I particularly like the Army Outfit doll's outfit on the right - you have to get the American Girl doll separately if she doesn't already own one.

I Heart Soldier Charm

Another fun gift idea for the military-loving gal is some beautiful army themed fashion accessories. There are a number of military themed jewelry pieces out there to start you off - my favorite is the gorgeous U.S. Army charm necklace featured above. It's so stylish!

Child's GI Army Girl Costume

If she has a charm bracelet you are in luck, as there are a lot of military themed charms you can give as a gift to add to her collection. I particularly like this Air Force logo shaped charm, as well as this gold plated US army logo charm. They're stylish and patriotic! There are lots more out there, so be sure to shop around and pick ones you think she will like the best. 

Are you shopping for a girl who likes to play army games and dress up with her friends? Let her act out her favorite war games with an awesome army girl costume like the one on the left! You can even get some army themed everyday wear so that she can be secretly playing dress up on the day-to-day. Here's a beautiful and elegant camouflage pattern dress she might like, for example.

Last but absolutely not least, why not give the gift of charity? Make a donation to your local troops on their behalf! You can give to the American Red Cross Military Families Foundation, the Air Force Aid Society, and many other similar organizations. You can even adopt a service member for them at Homefront Hugs.

Awesome Gift Ideas for Mass Effect fans

Dark Horse Deluxe SR-1 Mass Effect Alliance Normandy Ship Replica

The Mass Effect trilogy is one of my favorite game series of all time, and for all the ladies out there who feel the same, there's a tonne of merch to gift them with. This post is going to be looking at all of my favorite out-of-this-world Mass Effect birthday and Christmas present ideas.

Mass Effect Game Mouse Pad

First up, for girls who like to collect models and the like, why not pick up a replica ship from the game? She can have her own ship-shelf like Shepard has! As well as the one above, you can get the second Normandy ship, Alliance shuttle, Alliance fighter, and a Turian cruiser,

You can also get some cool accessories for their gaming console. If she's a PC gamer, get her a cool mouse pad like the FemShep one on the right. You can find more Mass Effect mouse pads here. Alternatively, for console gamers, pick up a skin for her Xbox 360.

Mass Effect 3 Dog Tags Necklace N7 Shepard

There are also many cool Mass Effect themed fashion accessories out there. My favorite is the N7 dog tags featured above, which work well for both cosplay and casual wear. You can get Alliance logo key chains too.

Funko POP Games Mass Effect
Grunt Vinyl Figure

There are also some cute pieces out there for younger fans of the series. For example, you could get a Commander Shepard action figure for them! You can find even more Mass Effect character action figures here, so you can put together a gift set of all her favorite characters.

For fans of things cutesy and kitsch, check out the super-adorable Krogan vinyl figure on the left. You can get loads of characters in this style: Shepard, Tali, Miranda, and Garrus.

Risk Mass Effect Galaxy at War Board Game

Shopping for a board game fan? Well they make Mass Effect Risk! You can even play as Cerberus and the Reapers as well as the Alliance, which is pretty cool. Its a tonne of fun and a must-own for fans of both Risk and ME.

Mass Effect Poster

Finally, Mass Effect is not just the games! There is a whole library of books out there filling in the mythos and the expanded universe, so why not pick up a few for the Mass Effect fan in your life? Wondering where the Illusive Man came from? Want to know more about the pasts of the Normandy crew? Its all in print. Here's where you can find them all.

So there you go, my favorite Mass Effect gifts. I hope you enjoyed this post and found some great ideas. Be sure to check out the rest of my blog for even more awesome present ideas for girls of all ages. I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite post on the Citadel.
