6 Perfect Gift Ideas For a Sweet 16 Birthday

I can’t believe how time has passed so fast.  My youngest is now turning 16 and for her sweet 16 birthday I wanted to make it as special as I could.  I did some behind the scenes surprises, like reminded her youth group leader at her church it was her birthday (so everyone at church would sing and embarrass her) and I made sure I had her party planned and her presents all ready to go when she woke up.  The party happened to be the day before her actual birthday so, the way our family does it, she didn’t get her presents from me until the next day.  Here are some ideas that worked for us to make her have the best sweet 16 birthday she ever could have.

Party Planning Is Important

As a part of the party I made sure everyone know ideas of that she would like for presents.  She definitely would not like beaded bracelet kits or dolls.  I let family members know and friends if they ask.  Gift cards are always a great idea too.  If you are unsure you can always get gift cards for fast food or department stores.  If you are out of state make sure those stores are available in the area you are sending the gift.

Most 16-year-olds are starting to drive, or are about to.  Getting gifts that are practical are a win-win.  I love this JumpSmart kit that includes jumper cables, a flashlight and a power bank, all in one.  It is compact and you don’t need another car around to help jump the car if your battery dies.  This is a great way to have your teen safe while they are on the road.

These packing cubes by TravelWise are great for sleepovers, camping trips, traveling and more.  They can even be used when kids are traveling back and forth between parents.  Each one stacks inside the other for storage and they are work good for cosmetics, toiletries, clothing, shoes and more.  The mesh screen helps you see what is inside at a glance and makes the bags breathable.  They come in eight colors and have handles for easy transport.  They can fit into a suitcase or drawer easily since they are compact.

Don’t forget thank you cards.  Saying thanks, in person, is great but proper etiquette is to send cards by mail or hand deliver them.  This works great too for out-of-town relatives that mailed gifts.  I love the variety and style of cards, mugs, recipe cards, address labels and more by Digibuddha.  I love that they can be customized (font, size, background) and some even have the option to make them personalized.

All in all, make sure the occasion is special by having family, friends and lots of cake.  A girl’s sweet 16 birthday only happens once.  We all have more milestones in life, 18,21.. and then over the hill, but this one is a special one just for girls.
