Pencils, felt tips, a rubber and a sharpener: with a nice pencil case your daughter has everything neatly together in her school bag. At Tiny Giggles you'll find pencil cases for girls in all kinds of styles, from Minnie Mouse and the Disney princesses to horses, unicorns and a fluffy llama. There are flat cases, round cases and cases with two or three compartments, from brands such as Disney, Hype, Milky Kiss, Sass & Belle and Zip & Zoe. Below you can read which pencil case suits your daughter.
Types of pencil cases
- Round cases: a roomy, cylinder-shaped pencil case with one zip, such as those from Hype (capacity 1.2 litres) and Milky Kiss. Everything fits, including a ruler and highlighters.
- Flat cases: thin and light, such as the Minnie Mouse pencil case with 2 zips and the Zip & Zoe unicorn pencil case. Handy when there's little room in the school bag.
- Cases with several compartments: the Disney Princess Double 3D has two zipped compartments, and the Princess Triple three. That keeps pencils, felt tips and small items separate.
Minnie Mouse and Disney princesses
For Disney fans there are four pink Minnie Mouse pencil cases: the Bubble, the Looking Fabulous, a flat one with 2 zips and a PU leather one. The Disney Princess pencil cases have the princesses on the front and come as Double 3D (two compartments) and Triple (three compartments). All Disney cases for girls are also under Disney pencil cases for girls.

Which pencil case suits your daughter?
First look at what needs to go in. For young children who mainly take pencils and colouring pens, a flat or small case is enough. Older children often carry more: pens, a set square, a rubber and a calculator. Then choose a large round case, such as the Hype (1.2 litres) or the Petit Monkey Jelly, or a case with three compartments. And of course taste counts: let your daughter choose between Minnie, horses, unicorns or a cool plain colour.
Tips for a tidy pencil case
- Only put in what your child actually uses; an overfull case is hard to close.
- Keep the sharpener in a separate compartment, so shavings don't get between the pens.
- Put your child's name on the case. On the Zip & Zoe pencil case you can use the name tag.
- Check at the start of each week whether everything is still there and the pens still write.
What goes in a pencil case?
What your daughter needs depends on her age:
- Reception and year 1: a few chunky colouring pencils and crayons. School often provides the rest.
- Ages 6 to 8: a pencil, a rubber, a sharpener, colouring pencils and a few felt tips.
- Ages 9 to 11: add a pen, a ruler or set square, a highlighter and sometimes a compass.
Also check the school's list; some schools ask for specific items.
A pencil case as a gift
A new pencil case is a fun and affordable gift for the start of the school year, a birthday or as a treat after a good report. Fill it with a few nice pens or pencils and you have a complete present. Pencil cases for girls with a favourite character, such as Minnie Mouse or a unicorn, are always a hit.
More than just for school
A pencil case is handy outside school too. Take it on holiday with colouring pencils and a sketchbook, or use a case with several compartments as a small toiletry bag for a sleepover. The Disney Princess Double 3D is very suitable for that. Looking for a real toiletry bag? Then see toiletry bags for children.
Care
Most pencil cases are made of polyester and wipe clean with a damp cloth. The Hype cases are wipe-clean only. Empty the pencil case completely now and then, shake out crumbs and shavings and let it air. Has a pen leaked? Wipe the stain away as soon as possible so it doesn't set.
Complete the school set
A pencil case belongs in a complete school bag. For a matching bag see backpacks for girls, and for other school items see school supplies. Put together a school kit and you get 5% off 2 items, 10% off 3 and 15% off 4 or more. All pencil cases, also for brothers, are under pencil cases, and everything for the new school year under school.
