I will usually - as a rule - buy one/two sizes up from the child's age.
So in your case, if she is 10 - buy her a size 12.
If you want to be really sure of your gift, buy her some pygama's! it won't matter if they are a little loose on her and kids LOVE to get them! They are economical too. Try The Children's Place!
Good luck.

I have an almost 8 year old, and she wears size 7/8, and a nine year old that wears size 12,(She is very tall and thin) so the age matching the size thing isn't always true!! lol... My almost eight year old is a bit tall for her age ( dad is 6foot5) so if the girl you're buying clothes for is average, this size should be ok.. Good Luck!!

10 Year Old Girl Clothes

I have a small frame and when I was 10 I'm pretty sure I wore size 8 or 10 in girls. If you're buying a shirt in a size 12 for her, you'd be better off getting it in a women's X-Small. Especially if you're doing the shopping at Old Navy, since they don't have their sizes down very well. I'm average but I usually wear a women's XS-S at ON and I was trying on some girls shirts one time and noticed a girls size 12, long sleeve regular fitting shirt fit me like a women's Small. And it wasn't tight on me either. The only problem was the waist was a little short.
So buy a 10 or 12 in girls pants, and for tops (I'd compare the women's and girls tops side by side before you pick one) either get a size 10 in girls or XS in women's. This is depending on how thin she is of course. Thin-thin I would go with 10, average-thin get a 12. She can always grow into it if it's a little big...Longer lasting present.

There is no one size for 10 year olds but if she's slender and average height your best bet would be a size would be around a 10 or 12

Before I had kids I would ask things such as this about clothing.
It dose not have to do with the age, but the size of the child. My 11 year old towers over everyone in the school, kids go. He wears the same size cloths as I do....call me short lol! The kid is almost as tall as I am!
So you might want to send her money or a gift card to a place. I know it is not as personal but kids do not look at it this way.
Have a great day!

i know a gurl that my mom use to keep and she wore about a 12 to 14 but it was because she was kind of tall but i would say try a tweleve and put the recipet in the bag and leave the tag on it just in case there is that same store around there she can exchange it to get a size she can wear but to be on the safe side get a 12 to 14 she will eventually grow into it
hope this helps

My nine year old wears size 14 pants and size 12 top. She is tall for her age and on the slim side as well. I would go with size 14 for both to be safe.

My slender daughter just turned 11 today. I'd get your girl a size 12. It should fit perfect as mine is getting too tall for this size. Hope this helps!
