Our Review
-
Shop now at Amazon From Amazon They’re cozy, cute, and fun. If the person on your list doesn’t have a mermaid blanket then they’re missing out.
This mermaid blanket is crocheted with a more sophisticated wave pattern instead of the stereotypical fish scale pattern you normally see which makes it a bit more adult. Of course, if you’re shopping for kids, you’ll want something more kid-sized.
The blanket is closed by the ankles and calves to keep your legs warm but open by the tail and most of the top of the blanket for comfort. Having a closed mermaid blanket looks nice but squirming in and out of what’s basically a sleeping bag is a hassle. Completely open mermaid blankets are much easier but lose some of the mermaid effect. With this half-closed design, you get the best of both worlds.
It’s available in multiple colors to choose from.
If this isn’t quite right, I have a whole post dedicated to adult mermaid blankets.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon They’ll absolutely love playing in this Under the Sea Tent from ImpiriLux. The highly detailed play tent creates an immersive ocean floor experience with a sandy-looking floor covered in pictures of seashells, starfish, and a pathway to far-away mermaid palace. The walls are covered in swimming sea life with coral and plants growing up from the ocean floor. The Top of the tent is where the ocean meets the sky with illustrations of breaking waves and mermaids near the surface.
It’s a perfect place for your little mermaids and ocean-lovers to play. And the best part is, it collapses flat and is easy to store in the included tote when not in use.

These Fin Fun tails include both the colorful, detailed skins and the monofin flipper which is what allows you to swim gracefully, with a little practice, just like a mermaid.
Fin Fun is one of the most trusted brands of mermaid tails partially because their monofins are safer than others.

You can always check out Fin Fun’s normal colors which are gorgeous, but these are some of their Limited Edition fin patterns that are truly unique and include Clown Fish, Amazon Rainforest rainbow, Lunar Tide galaxy pattern, Fire Dragon scales, and even steampunk Iron Mermaiden.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Mermaid skirts can be restrictive but mermaid leggings can take you anywhere. These scale print leggings from Alaroo offer that mermaid look without giving up the comfort and movement of leggings.
They’re nicely opaque and I love the 3D look side-fin printing and the shimmer effect on the scales. They fit true to size but if you’re right on the edge, it’s probably best to order up.
-
Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This pillow cover has a mermaid design on it that is white against silver and when you run your hand across the mermaid-scale sequins it reveals an iridescent pink mermaid against blue. The starfish in the mermaid’s hair stands out as opposite from the mermaid’s color.
I’m a little obsessed with these reversible sequins pillows and I have no shame about that. There’s something really satisfying about the feeling of moving them back and forth. Pillows like these are loads of fun for little kids and are also a good aid to reduce anxiety in adults by helping them focus on the here and now with unique textures.
This pillow cover has a mermaid design on it that is white against silver on one side and iridescent pink against blue on the other. The starfish in the mermaid’s hair stands out as opposite from the mermaid’s color.
To be clear this is only the pillow cover. It fits most standard throw pillows but you can also pick up a pillow insert fairly cheap online.

The three structures tell the story of Ariel turning into a human and have neat features to build like a sliding door in Ariel’s grotto and swinging tentacles on Ursula’s home. The 222 piece set is compatible with all other Lego blocks and includes Ariel, Flounder, and Ursula miniatures. The Ariel miniature has swappable fin and legs.
-
Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This sterling silver necklace by Hawaiian Silver Jewelry is a lovely gift for anyone who loves mermaids, whales, or dolphins and is one of those gifts that looks way more expensive than it really is so you can blow them away without draining your account.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Does a Mermaid Tea Set make a lot of sense? No, I don’t imagine that mermaids are drinking a lot of tea in the depths of the ocean but don’t think that hard about this. It’s cute, will last more than one play session, and it’s affordable. Hard to fault it now, huh?
This little self-contained tea set includes tea service for four–four teacups, four saucers, four plates–along with a teapot and tray all made from enameled tin. I love any toy that includes its own container to make putting it away part of the game.
It also comes with a 12-pack of food toys as your tea snacks. There are some cute pastries in here but the choice of some of the snacks is a little dubious. I’m not sure I’ve ever craved popcorn with my tea but I guess don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it. The play food is made from BPA-free and non-toxic plastic.
-
Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This 30-by-60-inch Seascape Canvas Art Print doesn’t have a mermaid on it, but the mermaid lover in your life will love this huge canvas art piece that makes it look like their room is underwater. It’s a mermaid’s eye view of their world.
The beautifully detailed Giclee print has unbelievable realism and definition. It places the viewer as floating in the in-between space of the ocean floor and the surface with sunlight glinting off the water.
I love that it doesn’t need a frame as it’s canvas stretched over wood. There’s hardware for hanging built-in for easy mounting. It comes in a range of sizes but I’m in love with this huge one.
-

It’s about the size of an adult scallop shell and will fit inside your hand. The details are beautiful and the coloring is just bright enough for contrast but subtle enough that it looks like it’s been fished up from the bottom of the ocean like a treasure.
This isn’t for holding lots and lots of jewelry, but for would be perfect as a little ring box or for holding pearls (if you want to get thematic) like this freshwater pearl and mermaid’s tail ring.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This coloring book from Fenech’s Calm Oceans Collection (Volume 2) is packed with unique images to color and de-stress with. Coloring has been shown to help people of all ages unwind so it’s a good hobby to pick up for fun and self-care.
There are lots of mermaid coloring books but Fenech images stand apart from the rest as soft, intricate without being too busy, and come with duplicates of each image. There are 25 unique pages to color and then a second copy of each page in case you want to try coloring it a different way, feel like you messed up on the first one somehow, or to share with a friend or child so you can both work on your coloring together.
The mermaids are sensual without being overly sexy which is nice and they all aren’t the same image with little tweaks. You get pages of mermaids in bathtubs, as pirates, swimming with whales, and holding their children.
Pick up a set of colored pencils to go with this and your gift is set.
