Letting someone do they thing the love the most is the best present you can give to anyone. So let's explore the best gift ideas for the 13 year old girl in your life.
Gift Cards
If you do not know the girl you are buying for very well gift cards can be a great idea. However be careful when choosing a gift card. you don't want to pick a card for a store that they would never shop in.
There are a couple of safe bets when it comes to gift cards for teenagers - Movies and Amazon.
Going to the movies is still one of the most popular activities for teenagers.
Amazon is a good choice because they will have unlimited options when it comes to choosing what to buy for themselves.
You can get this style of gift cards ranging in value from $50 to $1000. There are also gift cards delivered by email available they range in value from 15 cents to $2000.
Beauty Products
This is a time when they are growing up and exploring cosmetics. So perfume samplers, nail polish kits, and make up kits are good choices.
This gives them a chance to find the color, style, or fragrance that will work for them. This was one of my nieces favorite gifts as her and her friends could try to give each other makeovers.
This makeup kit is great for a 13 year old girl as it gives her a little of every type of makeup. The set includes eye shadows, blush, powders, nail polish, pencils, sharpener, mirror, brushes, pedicure and manicure accessories, fashion Lip-glosses, and trendy & hot lipstick colors. The case is also included with the set.
The Music Lover
Music is a huge part of any teenagers world. Some just want to listen to their favorite bands and singers. Others want to emulate their favorite musicians by playing an instrument or some even create their own music.
The Guitar Player
My nieces best friend doesn't just want to listen to music she wants to play it. So on her 13th birthday she asked for an electric guitar.
She was so thrilled when she actually got it. She has been getting lessons and is now starting to be able to play songs by her favorite band the Beatles.
The Beatles may seem like an odd choice for a 13 year old girl, she does like more current artists as well, but that is who she likes the most.
This is a great set for the girl who wants to start playing the guitar. It has everything she needs to get started.
Included in the package: a genuine Les Paul Special-II LTD guitar, a 10-watt Electra guitar amp, a gig bag, a clip-on headstock chromatic tuner, a guitar strap, medium picks.
There is also information for downloading beginner guitar lessons to your computer from emedia. This will help to give her some basic lessons to get started.
My niece isn't really all that interested in learning to play an instrument, but she does love listening to music. So for her a MP3 player was what she wanted.
They are perfect for teenagers as they are always on the go and they are light and portable. While MP3 players come with headphones they do not tend to last very long with teenagers.
My niece can go through at least a couple of cheap sets of headphones a year. So a good set of headphones can be a good gift idea to get for them as they get older. it will compliment the MP3 player you got them this year.
The SanDisk Sansa Clip 8gb MP3 player is a good choice. It has enough memory to store around 2000 songs. Plus it has a clip which makes it easy to carry around. It also makes for a good choice for using to listen to music when you are working out.
Books For The 13 Year Old Girl Who Loves to Read
My niece loves reading books. Some of her favorites are the Hunger Games series and the Divergent Series. You have probably heard of the Hunger Games since it has already a few of its books become blockbuster movies.
Divergent is already beloved by many teenage girls and it has only grown exponentially since the first movie in the series was released in March of 2014. Interest is expected to gear up again with the release of the second one in March of 2015.
.An amazing tale of girl who volunteers to take the place of her sister for the Hunger Games. A yearly competition where the combatants are all teenagers who are forced to compete until only one survives. When she shows acts of compassion in a barbaric competition and finds a way to beat the system, the nation begins to see hope.
The people have been divided into factions, each representing different facets of human behavior. You are expected to fit into just one. It is believed that if everyone sticks to their roles than peace will be held in this society. However there are some in this society who fit into more than one category and they are know as Divergent. These people are seen as a threat and are being hunted. Are they truly a threat to society or just to those who want to rule the society?
Hairstyling
Thirteen year old girls like to be fashionable. However buying clothes for them is a landmine. Will it fit or would they even wear it?
A great way to help them is with hair products. A flat iron can help them with making their hair look great.
Hair Chalk lets them experiment with colors without making it permanent. This way if they don't like how it looks (or Mom doesn't approve) they can just wash it out.
These are perfect for experimenting as they are temporary. It can wash out easily or remain for 3 days if they don't wash it out.
This is a great hair straightener at a reasonable price.
Technology
It is hard to imagine a teenager these days without the latest technological device. A lap top can help them with their education and for keeping in contact with friends. Kindle is a great portable device that is much more than just an e-reader. A camera is great for taking photos with your friends.
The Kindle is a great choice for a teenager. It is a great tablet, that doesn't have a huge price tag.
Sports & Fitness
Sports and fitness are very important to a teenage girl. A popular choice is a gift related to the sport that they love. It can be equipment that they need to participate or even clothing articles that show they support a team.
For fitness Zumba has become very popular because it is more like dancing. They love to get together to learn all the dance moves. You can get Zumba as a video game or on a DVD if you don't know which console they own.
If you are not sure which console they have you can get them the Zumba DVD set instead.
