Age-Appropriate Gifts

Think about your teen's personality. A young girl might enjoy a thick booklet of movie passes while a more mature one may love a makeover at a department store, complete with a pedicure. Or create a gift card tree with small $5-$10 gifts from her favorite stores.
Hobbies
-
Consider tickets to a stadium game, whether it's football, soccer or baseball, whichever is her favorite. Check out eBay for autographed merchandise. If she likes bird watching, think about binoculars. Astronomy? What about a telescope? Teens who enjoy science would love a microscope and book on DNA/forensics. Or try a magazine subscription.

Help give her private sanctuary a makeover. Think about new comforters, sheets, lighting and bookshelves, or even adding a comfy "reading" chair in her bedroom with an ottoman so she can put her feet up.
Vacations

Any upcoming trips? Hard-shelled luggage comes in many colors. Add cute luggage/address tags like, "Not Your Bag" and "I'm a Mess on the Inside."
Shows

Treat her to a night of extravagance: a fancy dinner and a live show at a local theater is a special treat for any age.
Technology/Games/Toys

Does she have her own iPod, phone, digital camera, DS or Wii? Or she might love a family-centered game such as a air hockey, ping pong or a pool table.
