I’m still in shock that I don’t have a pre-teen girl, just two full on teenage girls! Here’s a few things I think your girls will love. After you’ve checked your kids off the list, make sure to grab gifts for your DOGS (or CATS)!
Lululemon Crossbody – We’ve all seen these by now.. they have a few different size options, I think the mini is perfect for preteens.
Kindle – If you’ve got an avid reader they’ll love a kindle. This one is compact too so it can go anywhere with them.
Kindle Case – What’s a Kindle without a cute case? Well, still a kindle, but not as fun to read.. haha kidding!
Red Aspen – If you’re girls are constantly asking to get there nails done, tell them these are the answer. $14-16 for a 2 week manicure that doesn’t chip.
