My daughter is nearly 14. She hasn’t requested much for Christmas and this is what she has so far

Sol de Janerio set Large. Is what she asked for
An essentials tracksuit (found on sale)
Lego Orchid
Ordinary set

I was thinking of giving her £100 cash to go shopping with…

In her stocking it’s just
spicy noodles
spray
lip oil
a nice comb
her favourite chocolates
individual eyelashes
tweezers

I’m so stuck with what else to if anything to give her.

She has a Xmas eve box with pjs, a bath bomb and fluffy socks.

Thank you all so so much for your comments. I’ve got her a cookbook, a noodle dinosaur tin, some chopsticks so far. When I’ve got a break today I’ll have a look at the rest of the suggestions

Mine has new bedding, a bean bag, white crocs, a handbag, a jigsaw puzzle, a couple of books, tracksuit, pjs, smellies, necklace, chocolate.

DD13’s list is very similar! She’s a big reader so I’ve got her some books but one suggestion - if your DD is into fashion, the Christmas Vogue issue is £2 and bulks out a stocking! Also fluffy socks - which they all seem to love.

Cuddly toy

I always include a new friend 😁

My DD is 21 and my mum did this for me xx

I loved stationery & perfume at that age. My daughter loves nice shampoos x

Hi, my DD is15 I felt the same when I wrapped up her gifts. So what I did do was go onto marketplace/gumtree and looked for stuff for doing her nails with, I managed to get gel polish, lamp etc for next to nothing. Then went onto vinted and got her a training hand, and head to practice on.

To bulk out I've dc shampoo and conditioner she likes (Maui) but more expensive than I'd usually spend, shower gel and deodorant.

My 14 year old has an RI bag, books, face masks, Boux pyjamas, Victoria’s Secret sprays, spot patches, Lip oil and mac mascara it looks so much less than my other children but it’s what she wanted.

@Christmaspanicat I am so glad you liked the Dino-Noodle idea 🐉and as I mentioned to another poster, you can combine it at a later date with a noodle-spree in an Asian supermarket! I hope she loves it!
