Tween to Teen
Celebrating with friends
Becoming a teen is a big step, as you move into a new world of responsibility. Suddenly your brain has to catch up with your body changes. Most kids are caught between both worlds...to be a kid or a to be an adult can even be confusing time. It is also a crucial time when parents need to open that line of communication, since minor problems to us may actually appear to be over exagerated. This is a time when peer pressure can also play a part in their lives and truly opening that line of communication is important. it may even be the time to give kids the opportunity to see others that may be in less fortunate situations, so they realize just how lucky they are and how good they really have it, and how lucky they are to have truly amazing parents... perhaps they may not then take things for granted, but it will open their views and thoughts.
We had the chance to share Samira's 13th. birthday with her family and her friends. Samira is very blessed to have such amazing parents who have actually taken the time to really be great role models in her life, and you can see she is truly a beautiful and grounded young lady. Her family created a very special Tween to Teen 13th. birthday for her, from Shaved Ice to creating their own feather clips with a streak of color to their hair. They enjoyed their movie and popcorn and ended it with a sleep over.
I hope you enjoy the photos and videos and when it's your birthday look at some of these great ideas to create your own Tween to Teen Party!
