She would not use Ulta/Sephora gift cards.

Ask the parents for ideas/suggestions OP. Or ask what hobbies she has.

She’s probably in the minority then. Most teenage girls don’t want Snoopy slides or Dick’s gift cards. Is she a tomboy?

DP but mine would also choose Dick’s over Ulta in a heartbeat. You have to know your audience.

+1 and honestly i'd be irritated if my kid got an Ulta giftcard because I don't want her to wear makeup. I'd probably give her the cash and use it to buy spf for me.

Oh please, there are lots of non-makeup items there. My kids have recently picked up sunscreen, hairbrushes, detanglers, toiletries case to use for mouth guards for lacrosse, hair ties that stay for sports, etc.

+1

Mine would love! She's not vain like yours.

Why are you insulting my daughter? I didn’t insult yours. It makes sense a tomboy wouldn’t like Sephora. But liking Sephora doesn’t mean my daughter is vain.

We don't call people Tomboys anymore, PP. That's an insult. Why on earth would you consider a sporty girl boy-like? How rude!!!

What’s wrong with Tomboy? I was a Tomboy; lots of girls were. I dont consider it an insult.

That's because you're 45. Try calling a 13 year old a tomboy. It's rude. No need to compare an athletic and outdoorsy girl to a boy. She's just an athletic and outdoorsy boy. Do you tell boys to their face that they are effeminate and girly? Nope. Then don't call a girl a boy-like.

Do you mean girl???

Also, no one called the girl a tomboy to her face. I simply asked the parent. I see now that it was highly offensive. My apologies.

Snoopy is for losers.

My DD is almost 13. She’s very into the environment and soccer. She just asked for some expensive pants where a portion goes to help sharks. Recently I paid her $40 for helping me with her little sister’s bday party, and she asked me to put it toward an environmental nonprofit instead. Last year she wanted to go the nursery and pick out pollinator plants and she asked for a new soccer ball. I think at this age I’d ask the family since interests vary so widely. Otherwise I’d do a gift card to a bookstore or a place like target.
