Unique Birthday Gifts: 16 Wonderful Ideas for an Exceptional Sweet Sixteen
Turning 16 is an important transition in every teenager’s life. It is the period when young girls mature into young women. So what can you do to make your best friend’s sweet sixteen special? Here are 16 ideas with some cool birthday gifts that can make her 16th birthday unforgettable.
1. Be the first one to greet her by calling or texting her at the stroke of midnight.
2. Post a birthday message on her Facebook wall with cute pics of the two of you.
3. If you have classes, talk to 16 classmates and have them hand her one balloon each at different times until all 16 balloons are given. Include cute messages and birthday greetings in each balloon.
4. Make a gigantic handmade birthday card and have all her close friends write their birthday wish for her.
5. Being sixteen means getting your driver’s license. Go with your best friend to get her license. She will be glad to have you there to share this momentous occasion in her life.
6. Afterwards, invite her to a spa and treat her to an afternoon of pampering. Get some nail art painting done for the ultimate girl bonding. If this is out of your budget, you can ask her to go to the mall or the arcade instead where you can just chill out.
7. If she is getting a car from her parents, you can create a car gift basket for her. Add a car freshener, road map, glass cleaner and emergency road kit. This will come in handy as she cruises in her new car.
8. For a more personal touch, you can make a video birthday message. Just get your video camera and have her family and friends give a short birthday wish. Afterwards, transfer it to a DVD. She will surely love this and watch it again and again.
9. A scrapbook or photo book is another great idea. If you have been friends since you were little girls, then you probably have lots of pics together. Don’t forget to add those photos. You will be creating lifelong memories that she can look back to years from now.
10. If she loves listening to music, create an audio CD of her 16 favorite songs of all time.
11. If you love to bake, you can make her 16 cupcakes of her favorite flavor. She will appreciate this gesture because you made it especially for her.
12. If you cannot afford too much, bring her to the dollar store. She gets to select 16 items that she wants.
13. If she is a sentimental girl, she will be overjoyed to receive a handwritten letter giving 16 reasons why you love her. This will definitely make her cry and will guarantee that you will be best friends forever.
14. Another great gift will be The Butterfly Jewelry Box especially if she has a lot of trinkets and knick-knacks.
15. Make her a friendship bracelet, if you love crafts, to convey the deep and lasting bond the two of you have.
16. Plan a surprise birthday party to celebrate her sweet 16. You can work with her parents to organize one. Get all her closest friends and family together so that you can all celebrate this special day of her life.
Turning 16 comes only once in a lifetime, so you want to make sure that this is one birthday that she will remember forever.
