Shop gifts for tween and teen girls
As tween and teen girls get into their "older kid" years, buying gifts for them becomes a bit more complex than simply picking up the coolest new toy.
Luckily, there are plenty of trendy bags and beauty products, informative books and plenty of cool gadgets out there that can help you gift them something they'll be thrilled to unwrap.
For young creative types, try an easy-to-use camera or friendship bracelet kit that encourages them to use their imagination.
Or, if they're starting to show an interest in clothes and accessories, try a popular bag or piece of jewelry that's age-appropriate but still helps them feel more grown up.
To shop these options and more, keep reading -- and don't forget to check back as we add to this list throughout the season.
