Hi help. My dd is 13 next week she got spoilt for Christmas through us family and friends and i asked her what she wants for her main present and she said nothing but i would love to get her something special. She doesnt wear jewellery watches etc and has the latest technology in her phone and TV laptop. Please can someone give me an idea of something special... I usually book a hotel but dont want to because of covid thanks in advance

Does she have any hobbies? Presents our 13 yr old liked were: hobby-related; clothes; books; those remote-control string lights that are all over Youtube and TikTok; a Cameo message from a favourite actor/celeb.

A few small gifts and some money for her to save or spend on herself if she likes.

My dd was 13 recently. Hits for her were:
AirPods
A nutribullet for smoothies
A big fluffy blanket and some books
LED lights for her room
A new music stand and music
Hope that helps!

Take her shopping and out for lunch? This usually goes down well with my teens. Or if she likes the theatre then you could book tickets for a show she’d like? Maybe make it a special weekend away for the two of you? It doesn’t have to be now, could wait u til spring/summer and hopefully an improved covid situation.

Admittedly it was for DS at 13 a driving experience
