Birthday present ideas for teenage girl?!

My stepdaughter turns 13 next month and I'm really struggling for gift ideas.

She pretty much already has everything she needs - phone, ipad, laptop AirPods etc.

I'm really struggling for gift ideas for her if anyone can help?! Smile

Something for her room? Always a win for
My teenage girls. Like a neon sign for example. Or nice bed cushions.

I've got a 13yo DSD, so can offer some suggestions

FireandBrimstone · 17/12/2021 13:32

I got my 13yo a year's Birchbox subscription, she absolutely loves it.

Sorry posted too soon!!

Was about to say - but it depends on her likes/interest:

  • standing ring light so she can film TikTok's etc
  • voucher for Primark (all the kids seem to love primark!)
  • Niccee (it's a brand) hoodie (again they all seem to be wearing them!)
  • led lights for around her room
  • oversized wearable blanket
  • pjs
  • if it's this month; any Lush Snow fairy stuff?
  • Perfume? Daisy Marc jacobs seems popular right now with that age group

Ooh this is such a good idea! I had one once and loved it too!

Also, not sure if she's into hair/make up or what budget you're working with but both my DSDs (15,13) have asked for:

  • Morphe make up brushes
  • Molly Mae curling wand or wave tool

The giant, oversized hoodie blankets they have all been loving recently ? (well, older teens and students, I'm not so sure about 13 yr olds ??).

Something for a hobby - so hats and leggings etc if a sports person or a song book / music if they are an instrumentalist, money towards next pair of boots or trainers ? etc etc etc

Throw / blanket for their bedroom

Cinema voucher or coffee shop voucher

Voucher for a clothes shop to spend after Christmas choosing something the 'want' but don't 'need' ?

Hot chocolate / marshmallow type things

One of mine loved a bath bomb at that age - well still does, in truth

An experience / outing? Show or musical, nice dinner before or after
