The 2019 Greystone Girl Gift Guide
Tis the season for gifting of all kinds, something we love around here! While the true gift of the season is God coming down to earth, we love mirroring that in gifts to each other.
But always the question: WHAT to gift?! We’re here to help make gifting for your Greystone Girl just a little bit easier. Whether she’s an Fine Arts Center all day kind of girl, or always down at Landsports, we’ve compiled our best suggestions for campers of all kinds. Scroll down for our top pics for 4 fold growth, and make sure to check out our Visual Gift Guide on Pinterest for over 100 more ideas!
Spiritual
- She Reads Truth Bible. Is it time to upgrade her from her childhood Adventure Bible? This Bible is as beautiful as it is functional and will carry her into young adulthood and beyond.
- Tickets to see Ellie Holcomb. Ellie’s music takes scripture and weaves it into song in the most beautiful way - she’s a camp favorite for a reason. Any Greystone Girl would be thrilled to see her in concert, plus, you’re almost guaranteed to run into some camp friends at her show!
- Bible Verse Cards. There are styles available to suit any kind of girl. We love these personalized cards with her name in the verses and these tailored to a topic she needs to hear truth about. For a Christmas-y stocking stuffer, these cards tell the Christmas story for younger girls, and older girls. They even have camp specific verse cards!
- A scripture journal. Enhance her quiet times in the new year with a beautiful journal that guides her through scripture. You can find prayer journals, Bible study journals, and Scripture journals.
Social
- Tickets to see her camp friends. No thing will ever top an experience, especially when that experience is getting to see her favorite people in the world. Whether they live just down the road or across the country, a reunion with camp friends is always a great gift.
- A karaoke microphone. These were a huge hit at camp this summer, for a good reason. Her sleepovers will never be the same again!
- New Stationary. Get her some fun stationary that will serve double duty - thank you notes for all those Christmas gifts, and snail mail for her camp friends. Texting in the group chat will never beat a hand written letter in our book! We love the options from Minted, Paper Source, and Rifle Paper Co.
- Long distance friendship lamps. Being apart from her camp friends is hard, and these sweet lamps will make it just a bit easier. She can touch the lamp when she’s thinking about her friend, and the friend’s lamp will light up.
Mental
- Powersheets. We love everything that Cultivate What Matters stands for, and you can’t go wrong with their signature Powersheets goal planners for any girl on your list. This beautiful tool will help her intentionally set goals for her new year, just like we talk about in Breakfast Club!
- A class from Masterclass. Is she interested in a specific topic? How better to learn than taking a photography class with Annie Leibovitz, a tennis class with Serena Williams or a singing lesson from Christina Aguilera?
- Games to play with the family. These will play two fold: mental and social growth! Check out camp favorites Tenzi, Pit, Exploding Kittens, Codenames, and Rummikub.
- A book of the month subscription. Subscriptions really are the gift that keeps on giving, and if you have a reader, there is nothing better than getting a new book every month. We love the young adult subscription from The Bookshelf and Book of the Month.
Physical
- An inflatable lounger. We all love a Crazy Creek, but these inflatable loungers are the new hot thing. Think of how many cabin mates you can fit on it for a Sunday concert!
- Roller Skates. They’re back in, and are the cutest, most fun way to get your heart racing this year.
- Replicate a class she loves at camp. Whether it’s the bows we use in Archery, a new tennis raquet to use at camp, or a sewing machine to practice her stitches, she will love using those camp skills all year long!
- A headband to keep distractions away while she practices. Equally form and function, perfect for now and later at camp!
