Girls all over the United States, for one reason or another, look forward to the day that they will turn 16. There is nothing overly special that they get to do at sixteen that they can't do at any other age. True, they are older and more mature, but they can't vote yet, they can't drink alcohol, and they can just barely drive in some states. But for some reason it's a special year for them. There is certainly also a long line of things that most young girls would like to do or receive as a present on their sixteenth birthday. With that in mind, the following list has been compiled to help parents across America make their sixteen year olds birthday wishes come true!
1. A Car. Every teenager wants a car so it's no surprise that your sixteen year old daughter will want one for her birthday. It doesn't have to be brand new, but it must be drivable and not embarrassing.
2. Flowers. Women love flowers and so do girls. Send your daughter an arrangement of flowers to her school. She has probably never received flowers so now is a good time to do that.
3. A Pair of Earrings. These shouldn't be just any earrings: they should be real earrings, meaning that they should have real stones in them and should either be gold or platinum. A nice pair of diamond studs that aren't necessarily huge will be a nice gift for your sixteen year old and will be a gift that she'll remember and have forever.
4. Ring. Rings are a sign of maturity and your 16 year old definitely wants to exude maturity. So give her a ring made of precious metal for her birthday.
5. Manicure and Pedicure. Sixteen year olds are anxious to know what it's like to be like their mothers. So treat your daughter to the same kind of treatments you give yourself. Take her to get her first manicure and pedicure.
6. Professional Make-Over. If you haven't let your daughter wear make-up yet, then now is the time to introduce her. Take her to Mac Cosmetics and let her have her make-up done by a professional make-up artist. It will not only boost her confidence, but will teach her how to properly apply make-up.
7. Hair Salon Hair. Take your daughter to have her hair professionally done by a real stylist. Let her get a new look; after all she isn't a baby anymore.
8. A New Dress. Every teenager longs to look a little older, so get your daughter a new party dress that she can wear out for a night on the town with her friends. It doesn't need to be too sexy; age appropriate will do.
9. New Room Decor. If your daughter's room is still stuck in her toddler years, then it's time for a change. Set a budget and update her room. Paint is one of the cheapest things you can do so if nothing else, give it a new paint job.
10. New Bag. Women love purses and so does your daughter. Get her a new stylish bag for her new stylish age and watch her light up as she opens this gift.
11. A Birthday Party. Every sixteen year old wants a party, bottom line. If you don't throw one for your child then you as a parent will regret it. It doesn't have to be fancy, but you definitely need to throw a party for your daughter.
12. Birthday Cake. Along with a party, your daughter is going to need a cake. Whether it is homemade, store bought, or bakery made, make sure she has a cake in her favorite flavor with her favorite colors.
13. Wireless Phone. If your daughter doesn't have one, get her one. It's not cool, and it's not safe.
14. Decision Making Authority. Your daughter is growing up, and growing up always means more responsibility. But don't just give her more chores to do. Allow her to make some decisions on her own. She will appreciate the fact that you trust her and she will be better for it.
15. A Credit Card. Okay this one may be a bit of a stretch, but every teenager wants to have a credit card. The beautiful thing is that these days you can get prepaid credit cards so you can control how much money your child spends.
16. Birthday Card from Her Parents. Never underestimate the power of love. Your teenager definitely wants to know that she's loved from her parents and like any woman, likes to have the love in writing. So if you can't do anything else for her, let her know how much your absolutely love her. - 31376
