Most Popular Shark Christmas Presents for Kids
If your child knows every species from Great white to Tiger shark, a “normal” Christmas present probably won’t cut it.
For shark-obsessed kids, the best gifts feel real – something they can hold, wear, and proudly show off.
That’s where our real shark tooth necklaces, real shark teeth and real shark jaws come in. Below is a kid-focused guide to choosing the perfect shark Christmas present.
1. Real Shark Tooth Necklaces – Wearable Shark Magic
A real shark tooth necklace is one of the most popular shark Christmas presents for kids – it’s part jewellery, part talisman, part “I’m basically a marine biologist now.”
Why kids love real shark tooth necklaces
-
They can wear their passion – school, holidays, beach days, everywhere.

Instant conversation starter – “Yes, it’s a real shark tooth.”

How to choose the right shark tooth necklace for a child
When choosing a real shark tooth necklace for kids, consider:

Why real shark teeth make brilliant Christmas gifts

Easy to gift & post – small, light and perfect as a stocking stuffer.
Fun ways kids can use real shark teeth

Add to a rock, fossil or shell collection.

Use for school projects about sharks, oceans or fossils.

Keep on their desk or beside the bed as a small “good luck” object.

Trade and compare with friends who also love marine life.
Choosing the right shark tooth for a child
When picking a real shark tooth for kids, think about:
-
Species & story
-
Bull shark, Tiger shark, Mako shark – each species has a different tooth shape and a cool story behind it.
-
-
Condition & shape
-
Kids usually love well-preserved, sharp-looking teeth (even if they’re safely handled and not razor sharp).
-
-
Single tooth vs small set
-
A single special tooth is great as a “main” gift.
-
A small set of different shark teeth is perfect for curious kids who love comparing shapes and sizes.

3. Real Shark Jaws – The Ultimate Wow-Factor Christmas Present
If you want a Christmas morning reaction that your child will remember for years, nothing beats real shark jaws.
This is the ultimate shark gift: impressive, dramatic and incredibly cool for kids who live and breathe sharks.
Why shark jaws are so popular with shark-obsessed kids
-
Huge wow factor – opening a box to find real shark jaws is pure Christmas magic.
-
Perfect display piece – on a shelf, desk, or in a “shark corner” in their room.

Educational – kids can count teeth, see how jaws are structured, and understand how predators are built.
Best for:
-
Kids who already know a lot about sharks and want something “next level.”
-
Older children and teens who appreciate unique and unusual décor.
-
Future marine biologists, divers and ocean filmmakers-in-the-making.
Safety & display tips for shark jaws in a kid’s room
-
Treat real shark jaws as a display item, not a toy.
-
Place them on a shelf or display stand, out of rough play areas.

For younger kids, keep jaws somewhere they can admire them but not handle unsupervised – teeth can be sharp.

FAQs – Shark Christmas Presents for Kids
Are your shark teeth and jaws real?
Yes – all our shark tooth necklaces, individual shark teeth and shark jaws are real, not plastic or resin replicas. That’s why kids find them so exciting and special.
Are shark tooth necklaces safe for children?
For most kids, yes – with supervision and common sense. We recommend shark tooth necklaces for children who are old enough not to chew on or play roughly with the pendant. For very young children, it’s safer to choose a real shark tooth (for display) instead of wearable jewellery.
What age is suitable for real shark jaws?
Real shark jaws are best for older children and teens who understand they’re a display item, not a toy. The teeth can be sharp, so jaws should be stored where they’re admired rather than handled during play.
Are real shark gifts good for school projects?
Absolutely. Real shark teeth and jaws are perfect for science projects, show-and-tell, and ocean-themed assignments. Kids love being the one who brings something real to class.
Do you ship in time for Christmas within Australia?
We’re based in Australia and ship quickly, but Christmas is always a busy period. The earlier you order your shark Christmas presents for kids, the better the chance they’ll arrive well before Christmas Day.

If your child can happily spend hours talking about sharks, a generic toy just won’t feel special.
A real shark tooth necklace, a real shark tooth or a real shark jaw turns their passion into something they can actually hold, wear and treasure for years.
