Buying Valentine’s Day gifts for tween girls, that is those who are between the ages of 9 and 12 years old, may seem like quite a daunting task, as they are fast approaching the teen years and may be getting more difficult to buy for as they are in that ‘in between stage’. You don’t necessarily need to buy anything fancy or expensive for Valentine’s Day but it is nice for your tween girl to know that you are thinking of her at this special time of year. Here are a few tips to guide you through the gift giving process for tween girls this Valentine’s Day.

    Is her personality girly and feminine? My tween daughter’s favorite color is hot pink, so she would love anything in this color and the stores are full of pink and red clothes for girls during this season. There is a huge choice of Valentine tee’s, hoodies and sweaters with hearts and cute Valentine’s Day sayings. A red or pink purse, lipgloss or heart shaped jewelry to accessorize would go over very well with a girly girl. I’ve also seen adorable décor for girl’s bedrooms in the stores that are seasonal such as heart shaped night lights and bedside lamps.

    If your tween girl is not into the pink and frills of Valentine’s Day, you could easily put together a small gift basket for her with heart shaped candies and cookies, a Valentine’s Day balloon, a cd of her favorite music and a magazine or a book that she would like to read. You could even purchase a subscription to her favorite magazine. Magazine subscriptions are generally a very inexpensive gift and one that will keep giving all year.

    Although there are many different kinds of gifts that you can buy for tween girls, Valentine’s Day is not really about buying her the perfect ‘gift’. Take the time to spend with her doing something she enjoys and reconnect as a family; go to see a movie together, pick an activity or a restaurant that she loves and just hang out together, go out for ice cream or simply order in pizza and watch a movie at home. These gifts of shared family time are priceless and will make memories that will last a lifetime for tween girls. Happy Valentine's Day!
