It is both easy and difficult to choose a gift for a five-year-old girl. Stores offer a wide range of products. But the main thing, of course, is to guess what the birthday girl really wants to receive as a gift: a dress, a doll or a live kitten. In the latter case, it is especially important to take into account the wishes of the child's parents.
Children love gifts very much. And everyone who comes to a house where there are kids remembers this and always brings something tasty or interesting. But birthday is a special occasion. Moreover, if the little man is five years old. Anniversary, to some extent.
By the age of five, the child is already perfectly aware of himself as a separate person. He has certain interests, not the same as the neighboring child, for example. But on the other hand, the five-year-old baby does not yet have clear preferences. Today he is happy for one thing, tomorrow for another.
If the birthday girl is a five-year-old girl
The vast majority of girls become terrible fashionistas by the age of five. They no longer agree to wear the dress that their mother offers them. The girl wants to choose the outfit herself. It is already important for her that the suit is good enough from her point of view. The girl is interested in what her friends will wear to the kindergarten, although more attention is paid to her own appearance.
If the birthday girl is like this, as described above, a fashionista, then a beautiful dress or something else from clothes will be a good gift for her. You can also donate some accessories. Here, perhaps, it is important to consider two points. The first is what preferences the girl herself and her parents have. And second, it is important to give a thing that will not be bad taste, because the formation of aesthetic taste begins from early childhood.
Another gift option is a toy. It's trite, but there is no denying the fact that girls love toys. And most of all - dolls, bears and all kinds of attributes associated with them.
It's easier than ever to go to a store and buy a doll. But if a girl already has a dozen dolls, then a new one will arouse interest only at first. Such a gift is unlikely to be remembered and will be appreciated.
But, perhaps, the birthday girl dreams of a doll, moreover, of a particular doll. Then, of course, it will be a very expensive gift for her, even if the price turns out to be trifling.
All kinds of educational games, books, chosen by the donor with love and awe, often do not cause the expected delight in the girl. This moment is very upsetting for adults. But we must understand that now there is no such book deficit that the older generation felt at one time. Perhaps there is a wonderful expensive board game or a book with magnificent pictures in the kindergarten, and the girl already knows them.
However, adults often want the gift to be useful for the child. This is quite normal and even commendable. There are cases when a present, received at an early age, guided the life of people in the subsequent time. Chess can spark interest in this intellectual game. And five years is exactly the age when you can start acquaintance with chess. Small pointe shoes or a beautiful book about ballet may wake up the future ballerina.
Here, perhaps, the main thing is the enthusiasm of the donor himself, his ability to convey his interest to the child.
A little about "live" gifts
Sometimes children are given animals for their birthday: a puppy, a kitten, a hamster, a guinea pig. The animals are so cute, and the child plays with them so affectionately! Such a gift, of course, will be greeted with the most joyful exclamations.
But giving an animal simply because it is "cool" is unreasonable. After all, the animal will require attention to itself not only on the birthday of the child, but also at all subsequent times. A child of five years old is too young to take full responsibility for the animal. Are parents ready to accept a cat, dog or some other creature into the house? All these points need to be weighed, pondered. And - of course - to consult with the parents of the birthday girl.
If the parents agree for an animal to live in the apartment, then why not give the child a fluffy friend. In fact, communication with an animal, caring for it has a very beneficial effect on children.
The options to please a five-year-old birthday girl are the sea. Every person is unique, and children are no exception. It is important to find a gift that will become not just another little thing, but something more. And for this you just need to know and love a particular child.
