Gift suggestions for when you want a less tangible and more thoughtful gift for a preteen or teenage niece…
- The gift of confidence – the preteen and teenage years are the most brutal of ages. Your body is changing, your hormones are changing, your looks and boys (and girls) begin to get more important. And above all, your self-confidence is almost non-existent. Since you have gone through all of this yourself, you know well enough that your experiences at this age actually shape the adult you become. This make this particular age perfect to teach you niece a thing or two about self-confidence. Teach her to carry herself right, and that knowledge is actually a key to making friendsif use the right way. Give her the “weapons” she’ll need to fight her own battles.
- The gift of beauty and hygiene – if your niece is like most others of her age, she’ll be starting to experiment with makeup by now. Apart from getting her a few good quality makeups (so she’ll know that there’s a difference in the finish, the application and even the after effect), you could also try setting her up with a few makeup artist Sutherland Shire. Don’t forget that if you provide her with the thins, even YouTube can be a great teacher.
- The gift of a pretty smile – how you smile affects your confidence a great deal. If your niece is conscious of her smile, then chances are that she might be having issues with her teeth. Since her teeth are still “tender”, now is a great time to get it molded into the right shape with the help of a dentist. This is especially a good gift if you feel she’s still too young for makeup courses…
- The gift of a skill or talent – all of us are born with a hidden talent. The only issue, is that most of us take quite a long time to figure out what it is. Keep a close watch on your niece to figure out her talent if she already has not. Once you have, help her hone her talents; as this too will help her with her self-confidence. If you cannot figure her natural talents yet, teach her a new skill or two; something of value. Remember that this is the age most children feel lonely and left out at…so having something to occupy their mind will keep them from feeling down.
- The gift of friendship – as much as we love our parents, as teenagers or preteens, we are a little cautious about them. As a result, we rely on our friend and people of the same age group and limited life lessons for advice; and this is not always the best idea. Be the friend your niece can turn to at any time of the day. Be judgment free and panic free; be the vault their spill all their secrets to. Make her understand that what she shares with you will not go beyond you; and make sure to keep the promise. Trust us, break her promise once, and she wont confide in you ever again…
