Help her have a happy period
As your daughter enters into this new stage in life, take the time to make her feel special and celebrate her womanhood. No need to embarrass her in front of everyone; simple things will mean a lot to her. Here are some ideas:
- Lend her some confidence. That bag, earrings or sweater you have that she just adores - let her borrow them, even if it's only once.
- Take her out to dinner. Let her choose one of her favourite restaurants and have a special mother/daughter girls' night out.
- Rent a movie of her choice. Maybe you prefer comedies, but it's her turn to pick. Remember: Bonding is important.
- Give her a facial. Just about every grocery or drug store sells at-home facial kits. And with her changing skin, getting her in the habit of taking care of her skin now is a good idea.
