Cute Gifts for Teenage Girls

Teenage girls are as changeable as the wind. The things they love in the morning, may be on their "hate list" by afternoon. It's no wonder that family and friends are shy about buying a gift for a teenage girl and fall back on giving cash or a gift card, instead. But teens, ever-changing as they are, do love receiving gifts and lots of them.

  1. Teddy Bears and Flowers

    • Bears and flowers are a winning gift combination.

      Most teenage girls love flowers and teddy bears, too. Florists have recognized this winning combination and offer the best of both worlds: floral arrangements with a cuddly teddy bear alongside. If your teen is not the flower type, floral shops also offer balloon arrangements and even cookie trays, all with the ever-popular teddy bear included.

    Novelty Alarm Clocks

    • Teenagers struggle to get out of bed in the morning. The alarm clock goes off and, if they even hear it, the snooze button goes on. Check out some novelty alarm clocks for some really cute ideas to help them along. There are flying alarm clocks, alien alarm clocks, sunshine alarm clocks, puzzle alarm clocks and an unusual one--a runaway alarm clock. When the morning alarm sounds, this alarm clock "runs away" if you don't answer the first time. As it flees, it darts about and can even withstand a deep dive off a bedroom nightstand without trouble.

    Speaker Pillows and Docking Stations

    • Teenage girls love their music and their gadgets. Buy her a fuzzy speaker pillow for a cute gift. A speaker pillow is a fuzzy, snuggly decorator pillow for her bed that doubles as speakers for her MP3 player. They are available in a variety of neon colors.

      Another means of providing "speaker power" for her MP3 player is a docking station made to look like a pig. Just touch its ears to control the volume.

    • Vintage-look vending machines are a cute addition to her bedroom decor

    Nail Polish and Nail Art

    • A girl cannot have enough nail polish. Buy her a kit or potpourri of color (each finger and toe can be a different shade). Pick sparkly colors and even pedicure flip-flops, which are cushy sandals that gently keep the toes separate to allow for drying.)

      Or buy her a nail art kit. These kits help her apply artwork to her nails after polishing. Using a kit, she can adorn her nails with flourishes, flowers, animal images and patterns of all kinds.

    Toe Socks
