Hi everyone, due my baby in around 5 weeks now. Me and my partner have a six year old together and my partner has a 13 year (almost 14) from a previous, both girls. I'm going to get my 6 year old a big sister bracelet off ebay from the baby, just to help her feel special and included. She's excited for the baby but has asked questions about being left out when the baby comes so really want to make sure she doesn't feel left out. My question is what to get the 13 year old? Have any of you bought something or have any ideas for when your little ones arrive? I don't want to spend a lot (we are on a budget) but don't want to not get her anything at all when our 6 year old will be getting something Smile

What about getting her a bracelet too? That way it's fair in both costing and neither can complain they want what the other got.

The sort of bracelet I'm buying is a bit young. I don't think she'd wear it. She's 13 going on 30 or thinks she is! With wanting to keep costs down I can't buy her what I know she'd wear in a bracelet

What about a nice necklace or something instead then? Still something that she can treasure and remember she got it when her baby sibling was born.

Does she have a bracelet already you could add a charm to?

A nice keyring with world's best sister and something for her she likes (cosmetics Maybe?) X
