Christmas Ideas for Older Kids, Tweens!

10.25.2009 by Girl on Fire // 1 Comment

KEEPOUTAs kids get older, shopping gets harder! I mean what do you by tweens?  I was thinking about some ideas and want to share them with you.  As kids get older, their bedrooms become their space.  They want their privacy and they want a cool bedroom.  So I was thinking that a bedroom makeover would be the perfect Christmas gift for a tween.

Some ideas I had would be to purchase awesome new sheets and bed linens.  If your tween likes to change looks often you could purchase a few duvet covers so they can change them out when they tire of one look.  You could purchase a nice down comforter and easily change the look by changing the duvet!

Tweens love to have sleepovers! You could purchase several extra pillows for them to have on hand for friends, or just to toss out on the floor to lounge and read on!  I love getting new pillows, all nice and fluffy!

You can personalize the look of the room even more by purchasing some accessories like lamps.  Desk lamps, night table lamps, maybe some cool track lighting?  Even decorative night lights.  Storage chests and Magazine holders will make your tweens room a nice living space while providing storage to keep that clutter under control!

If you have some more ideas for gifts for tweens, especially girls, I would love to hear them!

    My niece is 12 (almost 13) and she loves music but since I don’t always know what she has or likes I get her itunes gift cards and she can use it to buy the music she likes song by song or the whole album.

    She also LOVES fun socks, so it is always fun to keep an eye out for new socks.
