Hot Gifts for 9-Year-Old Girls
I was driving four 9-year-old girls home from ballet class last night (imagine four girls screaming along with "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" -- who can concentrate on driving?!) and used that moment to ask them what the hot gifts are this year for girls. "I-Dog and I-Cat!" they screamed. "Chatnow!" I had no idea what these are until I looked them up. Chatnow is basically a way to text and talk to your friends from two miles away. Even my daughter knew what this was. First pierced ears, now cell phones. The girls also had this bit of wisdom: "Never let your dad buy you clothes." Remember the Hannah Montana episode involving the sweaters? What other gift ideas do you have for girls this age?
