Important!

Proceed with Caution!

Tweens (preteens) are quite hard to please. So, you need to carefully choose what gifts you're going to give them. And this is true whether you're buying gifts for your daughter or for someone else's. Remember - they are fast developing their own individual personalities at this stage.

Top Tips in Buying Gifts for Girls

Basically, the guidelines in choosing and buying gifts for tweens are very much the same as those for younger girls. You can refer to my other lens Fun Gifts for Girls Age 10 and Under to learn how you can get the perfect gift for this age group.

What do girls belonging to this age group want? Here are some birthday gift suggestions that these girls may appreciate the most.
  • 1iPod
    Which young lady doesn't want an iPod? After all, there are a lot of reasonably priced iPods in the market today. Or if she already has one, consider the endless accessories available. Think iPod skins, belt clips, speakers, an alarm clock, charms, and carrying cases.

    Introducing the new, colorful clip-and-go iPod shuffle. Its buttons give you an easy way to play your music. With a press of the VoiceOver button, you can hear the song's title and artist, playlist menu, or battery status. And it holds hundreds of songs, multiple playlists, and Genius Mixes, so you can always have the perfect music for every mood.

    Redesigned for music and Multi-Touch, iPod nano is smaller and lighter than ever. You can clip it to your sleeve, jacket, or running shorts and keep your favorite songs at your fingertips--along with the Genius feature, a built-in FM radio, pedometer, and more. And the anodized aluminum finish in six bright colors makes this new design even more brilliant.
