My 15 year old daughter is celebrating her first month anniversary with her first boyfriend. and she needs ideas on what to buy him. any ideas?
Tradition!
Aka, something repeatable. Inexpensive. Fun.
Fishing, dancing, swimming, pool, music, icecream, movie marathon, photo safari, sailing, bowling... Something HE likes to do, and she would like to do with him on a regular basis... Like once a month.
1 month?? Gees
Go to the movies or for ice cream and make a nice card. This is not a milestone.
Nothing. This is no big deal. Maybe they may want to celebrate by doing something together like a real date - a movie, a ice cream, etc.,
They should NOT be giving each other gifts.
I agree that encouraging this isn't my first choice. A poem, note, or baking him cookies should be the limit. Along with a note saying "let's take things slow" :)

nothing. you don't celebrate in months lol.
I remember being 15 with my first month anniversary. For all those moms being so derisive, why do you have to be so negative towards a young girl starting to understand what relationships are about? It is exciting because a teens life is measured in days, not years. And if this is the first relationship that has lasted this long, it is a milestone for them.
I also agree that encouraging a low key approach is also good. An outing for the two of them sounds perfect. If she feels this is special, that is the important thing.
Hmmm...a month isn't exactly a milestone. Maybe tickets to the movies or something else that they can enjoy together.
gift card for ice cream with a poem / card on reflecting what the first date intailed.......
Now that I am a mother, I wouldn't encourage this, but I remember being 15.
I would say that baking cookies would be fine. Buying a gift is a bit over the top for 1 month.
A handmade card should suffice.
i personally wouldn't encourage this type of celebration, but then again i am against a 15 yr old having a boyfriend........but since you are fine with this i agree with TF, an ice cream is more than enough
