The Best Subscription Boxes for the Tween Girls Who Inspire Us

Updated by Timothy Paradis

New trends pop up seemingly overnight for tweens , especially tween girls, and their world is constantly changing. The ever-changing stream of new interests and new products can get overwhelming! Luckily, there are plenty of monthly subscription options that make it a point to stay on top of things.

While we might prefer to forget our middle and high school days, it's an important transitional phase filled with learning and exploration. Here at Cratejoy, we have plenty of gift subscriptions and monthly tween and teen boxes that offer fun ways to enjoy a little freedom, explore new interests, like self-care and clothing styles, and develop their unique identity.

Monthly subscription services make it easy to stay on-trend, so we pulled together a list of some of our best subscription boxes for your favorite young adults. Whether you're looking for fun gift ideas, a reward for their achievements, or something special to encourage them, we've got doodle crates, DIY beauty and craft boxes, and book-of-the-month clubs that fit the bill. No matter what vibe you're after, this lineup delivers the goods for tweens and teens!

Dungeon Crate is a monthly subscription box that's going to take their tabletop setup to the next level. One of the best subscription boxes for Dungeon Masters and D&D guilds, this box is curated by in-the-know, experienced gamers who handpick and deliver a whole lotta loot, including RPG accessories, miniatures, and dice, plus downloadable adventures, campaigns, and maps.

Shipping · Cut offs for the current month are the 4th of the month. Boxes are shipped the third week of the month. Each crate includes a monthly code for exclusive digital downloads. Calculated shipping costs apply. Cancelling only stops the auto renewal process, this is a NON-REFUNDABLE item.

“I have been getting Finders Seekers boxes for over a year, and I cannot lie, I'm obsessed. The mysteries are a lot of fun, and they are so much fun to do with friends, especially those that haven't done something like this before. Occasionally, the puzzles are evil (I'm looking at you, Paris box!), but the fact that after a year they can still challenge me is a good thing.” - Rachel C.
