It can be tough to pick out the perfect gift for your daughter. But when it comes from both her mom and dad, it’s extra special.
Here are some ideas to get gifts for daughter
1. Musical instrument
Musical gifts are always a great choice because it supplies an opportunity for your daughter to learn about something she probably wouldn’t have any other way. Instruments are especially good because they aren’t limited to one type of music, and the kind of music your child discovers may be totally new to you! You can get her an instrument she already likes or try out something new together (i.e., drums).
2. Art supplies
If you know your kid is artistic, getting art supplies as a gift will let them express their creativity and help them discover which medium they like best paint? pencils? markers? You can even get super specific by looking up what types of art they’re into (sculpting? painting? etc.).
3. Craft supplies
If your daughter is the crafty type, get them some materials of whatever it is they like to do (weaving? knitting? scrapbooking?). Consider signing her up for a class to learn a new skill she wouldn’t otherwise have access to!
4. Duct tape wallet
Duct tape wallets are a great gift that will let your kid learn an important life skill: how to make something useful out of a little bit of everything you have lying around the house. Plus, you can fit all sorts of personalization into this DIY project from glitter duct tape, to custom monograms , to family photos . Try making a few together so she can have one for every occasion.
5. A day out
This could be anything from a trip to an amusement park, to a visit to a new city or country, to a day spent learning how to do something your daughter is interested in (like cooking or carpentry). It’s the perfect way to show her that you’re just as invested in her interests as she is.
