3. Fit for a Princess
Every little girl dreams of being a princess; I’m 33 and I still dream of being one… so, if the little girl in your life is having a birthday, how about making her dreams come true by giving her a Princess-themed gift. Give her a princess accessory, like a tiara or a scepter, or give her the whole kit and caboodle, complete with a gown and shoes. The little girl who is always a princess in your eyes will really feel as if she has become one when she receives this gift.
4. An Instrument
Let the person of honor explore his inner Mozart or her inner Pat Benatar with the gift of a musical instrument. Whether it’s a toy instrument or the real deal, the child will love exploring all the new music he or she can make.
5. Jewelry
What girl doesn’t love jewels – even at a young and tender age. For her birthday, give her a bauble that she will love to wear, like a necklace, a bracelet or a pair of earrings. Real or fake, she will be delighted just the same.

6. Sporting Event
If that special someone has a favorite sport, how about taking him or her to a game? Get tickets to his or her favorite team and enjoy cheering the team on together.
7. A Special Day
Instead of actually getting something material for a gift, give that special little one a gift that really matters: your time. Plan a day together that is filled with fun things to do. Eat lunch or dinner at a restaurant, play at a park, explore an aquarium, take a walk, go to the beach, play with sidewalk chalk. This will be a gift that will truly be remembered.
Birthdays are truly something special for children and celebrating them with a thoughtful and meaningful gift will make the day even more special. Do you have a little one with a birthday coming up? Which one of these gifts are you considering getting?
