Present ideas for DD who will be 13

51 replies

gingeristhenewblack43 · 01/09/2024 11:54

Looking for present ideas for DD who will be 13. So far ideas I have are:

Nomination bracelet
Jellykat toy (specific one Nikita Kuzmin had on CBB earlier this year)
Maybe tickets to Nikita's new show next year.

DD loves horses (does weekly riding lessons and volunteers at yard), make up, skin care, clothes, guinea pigs (has 2 already!)

What are you all getting DD's of a similar age?

Last year I got my DD a cover less duvet. She used to always manage to kick her duvet cover off so whilst this was a practical gift, it's so soft and snuggly it's amazing. I ended up buying my youngest DD one. We got them from the fine bedding co. They had offers on around November time

@Ilovelurchers thanks for the thermal printer tip. I'm going to order one for my DD. They look great.

They have them on shien (again not an ideal place to buy them) but when I was mooching on there I've just found some brilliant canvas type posters. They do all sorts of themes, football, gaming, animals. Got good reviews & pretty cheap. Be good with a frame as a gift.

I've also previously purchased blankets from there...chicken nugget & pizza ones. The kids love them.

My 13 yo DD wants skincare, body spray, make up, Nike socks, Nike trainers and clothes.

DD loved Arianna Grande perfum at that age
Silver jewellery
powerbank when at the stable
chargeable pocket warmer
funny thermal knee height socks for the riding boots

We did photo blankets with "Sherpa" lining, great and really soft.

Make up case, good quality brushes

Mytribeof3 · 12/09/2024 10:20

My oldest daughter really likes the Ariana Grande perfumes and my youngest likes the Britney Spears ones so I'm on the look out for some decent offers on those this year 🤞

MiddleAgedDread · 12/09/2024 11:16

DSD just turned 13, her birthday presents included (not sure of all that she got from her mum's side)
trainers
jellycat
necklace
waffle maker
recipe book (it's a tradition!)
water bottle
jewellry storage tray thing
concert ticket

EngineEngineNumber9 · 12/09/2024 11:22

My niece is the same age - she spends all her money in Typo and Starbucks! She also loves vinyl copies of things like Olivia Rodrigo and other merch for her favourite artists.

StiffyByngsDogBartholomew · 12/09/2024 13:18

DD is 14. She will be getting:
Whichever Le Mieux set is in the Black Friday sale - she usually gets top, numnah and hat silk

some yard boots for mucking out

tickets for london horse show

fabric and findings for her hobbyhorse sewing hobby

bits And bobs of bubble tea, maybe a new Starbucks cup

StiffyByngsDogBartholomew · 12/09/2024 13:22

MavisTheMonkey · 01/09/2024 12:46

My DD is a bit younger but similar interests and she has bookmarked half the Le Mieux catalogue so that will be a fair bit.

Couple of other ideas I have for her are:
New body protector
Mini skincare fridge
Hair straighteners
Sol de janiero 71
Pandora earrings

May I heartily recommend getting on the LM site early on Black Friday... they usually discount four colours to at least 50% off

haypole · 12/09/2024 16:56

Dd12 will get full size easel, canvas and paints.

Missscentsation · 12/09/2024 18:39

Probably a new tv for her room hers is old and playing up although if it gives up before Christmas she'll get a new one when needed.

Onemoret1me · 12/09/2024 22:08

Ohh that reminds me, my teen mentioned the Marc Jacob’s perfume. I’ll need to check which one but something like daisy wild thanks for the reminder!

PhotoDad · 12/09/2024 22:15

My DD wanted (and normally got!) camera kit, hence my username. Great hobby for outdoorsy/artistic kids. Pretty sure that at 12/13 she had a Lumix FZ330.

fluffynotebook · 12/09/2024 23:01

My DD will be 13 in November... she would love a Dyson Airstrait but it's so expensive (hoping to find a cheaper alternative).
Other things I've seen for her are as follows:
Pandora heart ring
Mean girls theatre ticket
Pink oyster jellycat
Rare beauty make up item
Cat-tastrophe cat stacking game
A pink leather journal
Acrylic paint markers

Make up brushes might be made by Mitchell. All the rage!

Flibflobflibflob · 13/09/2024 22:57

It depressing that so many want skin care and makeup. They are so young.

LoopyLou67 · 13/09/2024 23:03

Good ideas here

mines asked for cat lego
white fox
perfume (normally Marc Jacobs or Dior)
Dior gloss
heatless hair curler
Light Projector

Dd is turning 12 tomorrow and here’s what we got her.

kylie jenner lip gloss
a new phone case
a new AirPods case
some ty beanies as she’s an avid coll3ctor
a new sleep mask

and a ticket to see six the musical

she’s been talking about the Rihanna perfume so maybe I’ll get that for Christmas

asterel · 16/09/2024 09:34

DD will be 12 so I’m looking for ideas - the photo printer is a good one, thanks! Thankfully she’s not bothered about skincare or designer clothes, and she doesn’t have a smartphone. So far I’ve got her a few little bits and pieces, and she is going to a show she specifically likes in October as an early Christmas present. Apart from that I have:

Lego flowers
Glitter bedside lamp
Cat necklace and some other jewellery bits from Lisa Angel
Books
Fairy lights
Stocking bits
Going to get something from Jellycat
Maybe some kind of perfume/eau de toilette
Monty Bojangles cat tin

I don’t think I need that much else but still interested in maybe getting something else perhaps…

Rocknrollstar · 16/09/2024 09:40

GD is going to Berlin with her parents as her 13th birthday present. They decided not to buy lots of unwanted, unneeded gifts. She’s very keen to visit Germany and this will also give her some quality time with her parents as she is the youngest of 3. I think my 13th birthday present was a tennis racquet for school.

Stompythedinosaur · 16/09/2024 10:21

My 13yo is getting:

New phone (out one is very much the worse for wear)
Ticket to Hamilton (family present)
Mini fridge
Stud earrings
Daisy perfume
Art supplies (hobbycraft set with pencils, pastels, paints etc).

Am considering a waffle maker as a joint gift with her sister. Definitely want to add some books too, and a new family game.
