Turning 16 is more than a birthday for teenage girls. When a girl turns 16, it's about finally feeling like a woman, finally being taken seriously, spreading wings, having the world at her feet and her whole adventurous life in front of her. Turning 16 is a milestone. It is the next chapter in the book of her whole life. Getting a present for a girl who is about to turn 16 is a big deal. You will want to get her a Sweet 16 gift that makes her feel like an important and valued adult. - If you do not have pocketfuls of money to spend, don't give up. You can still get a 16-year-old girl something incredibly special that she can value for years. An initial pendant necklace will symbolize that you want her to shine who she is to the world and that you view her as someone special. Not to mention that teenage girls love jewelry; you can purchase one at almost any department, clothing or jewelry store; and initial pendant necklaces are almost always in style.
- A money tree is always a welcome gift.money tree image by palms from Fotolia.com
If you happen to be one of those dads or moms who constantly use phrases such as "money doesn't grow on trees," then look no further for a present idea. This is a unique gift that will make your teen laugh and that she will definitely appreciate. This can be a little inside joke with your daughter for years to come. Take a bunch of twigs, tape or tie them together and tape dollar bills of different amounts all over it. You can have plenty of one dollar bills and occasionally attach higher numbers on the twigs. Tell her this tree will die once all the "leaves" are picked off, so she better use it sparingly. - Feel safe letting her have freedom by giving her a cell phone.teenage girl on cell phone image by Michael Drager from Fotolia.com
If you are a parent, then this gift also happens to be a gift for you. Sixteen is an age of endless dates, parties, after-school activities and driving. Giving her a cell phone for her birthday will not only make her feel like a trusted adult, but it will also allow you to keep track of her as well as give her more freedom without you staying up all night by the door. - Get her concert tickets.Rock Concert 2 image by Andrew Brown from Fotolia.com
Give her a night she will remember by getting her two front-row tickets to a show by her favorite singer or band. By getting her two tickets, she can bring a girlfriend or boyfriend along as well.
