What is a good gift idea for a 15-year-old girl?

Q. My sister has a really hard time thinking up gift ideas because she is very practical. She is not like normal teenage girls - she hates makeup, isn't into fashion things, and doesn't fawn over any celebrities. She enjoys writing, drawing, painting, singing, drumming, etc. She likes worship music - suggestions for any specific worship bands? Her favorite TV show is My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. She likes video games, but can't find any good ones (she hates violence/gore, language, etc.); her favorites are Super Smash Brothers Brawl and Halo Reach. Her favorite animal is a dog/wolf, her favorite authors are Robert Liparulo and Wayne Thomas Batson, and she really likes Scotland and Ireland (she nearly peed her pants when she watched Brave and saw Celtic Thunder in concert).

On a side note, do any of you have inspiration for my sister? She has at least 20 books right now, all ideas in progress, and would like inspiration. :)

Thank you to anyone who can help! As some of my favorite people say, you can't get medicine unless you ask for it!

A. Well she likes both Nintendo and Halo. Seems the best compatible idea in the video game department is the Wii U. Personally, I bought it and it is pretty interesting with the game pad and all. Plays all the Wii stuff too. Considering she already is in the hands of an xbox, this generally is up in the air. It does play CoD: Black Ops, Mass Effect, and Assassin's creed just like the Xbox and PS3 but then, they are violent. But then, so is Halo. The Wii U is pretty expensive, ranging from $300 to $350 dollars, tax not included. Also if your willing to buy a game with it, that too furthers the price on it.

Considering My Little Pony: FiM became pretty famous, the season 1 set is actually coming to DVD pretty soon. It is possible it may even be out now. Hot Topic is also supporting My Little Pony, having a ton of possible purchasable items regarding the show so you can get her some stuff there. Also Hot Topic sells video game related clothing there too, so if you find some of her favorites you can go there as well. Hot Topic is generally found in shopping malls, by the way.

If her favorite authors are Robert Liparulo and Wayne Thomas Batson, Then it is clear to get something that co-relates with them. Guess you'll have to do some research on what she has of them already.

As for the rest, I can't really think of anything relating to do with Scotland and Ireland. The movie Brave did already came out on DvD / Blu ray. So you could go pick that up too!

Your sister just so happens to like things that I know about, so if there is any other details or information you need to know, you can email! :D

Hope you find the right gift!


What is a good birthday gift from Ireland?
Q. My brother's birthday is coming up very soon, and I am currently living in Ireland and wanted to send him something from here. Also, his girlfriend's birthday is right after his, so I'll send her something too. What are some good Irish gifts to send? I wanted to make him sort of a gift basket with all sorts of different Irish alcohols, (Guinness, Beamish, Murpheys, Bulmers..) but I don't think you can ship alcohol easily. Any ideas? It's his 21st. Also, I'll probably get a small souvenir for my little brother too. Any suggestions on that? Thanks!

A. I would definately recommend a claddagh ring for your brothers girlfriend, it's the most traditional Irish gift for women. tell her when she wears it, that the bottom of the heart should point towards the back of her hand to show she is in love with someone( this is very traditional ) if a girl is single then the heart should point towards the finger tip.

for your brothers, there are lots of souvenir shops around, the gift basket is a good idea but you don't have to send alcohol.


What gift should i give to my host family?
Q. im going to france this summer and im staying with a host family. i still don't know who they are yet but i will find out soon. they said we should bring them a gift, but i have no idea what to bring them. the only thing that comes to my mind is a photo collage of miami, fl (were i live). any suggestions?

A. If there's a tourist office in your city, go down there and see what they have. I bring calendars, chocolates, jewellery, t-shirts to my foreign in-laws, but of course you really shouldn't bring clothes if you don't know the sizes. But photo books are also a nice idea - but that said, go to the tourist shop and see what you find.

As an aside, I brought my mother in Ireland a gift of floating candles in the shape of tulips back from the Netherlands once, she loved them.


My cousin is leaving Ireland to go to Australia - any good gift ideas?
Q. He's going for a year. He's a typical man so I dont want to get him anything to lovey dovey or overly sentimental. Just something thats going to come in useful. Has anyone been travelling and been given something that they really used a lot? Or has anyone got any good ideas for a nice pressie?
Thanks in advance!!

A. I reckon a true blue Aussie bloke needs a little red & yellow hat--a pair of black budgie smugglers,
and of course the sunscreen!
