How Do You Say Happy Birthday to a 16-Year-Old?
Put It in Writing
Getting a hand-written note (or text or post) with a special message is an important part of having a birthday. When someone you know turns 16, you have the opportunity to let that person know how much you appreciate them. As their family member, friend, or teacher, your words will be a memorable part of a milestone celebration they will never forget!
Put the Writing on a Card…
Receiving cards on your birthday is always nice. It is a go-to, no-fail gesture. Choose a card that is beautiful, funny, or thoughtful. Keep in mind the personality of the birthday star and choose the card you think they would most enjoy.
…Or Get Creative!
Who says your birthday message has to go on a card? Maybe you want to do something fun and surprising. You could try writing the message in their favorite food, or decorating their locker with birthday Post-Its. If you are buying a car as a present, you could write the message on the windshield, or attach it to the keys!
Why It’s Important to Choose the Right Message
People only turn 16 once! How you celebrate your 16th birthday is something you never forget, and many teenagers look forward to their parties for a long time. It’s important to make someone feel confident and loved as they transition from childhood into adulthood. Make the most of this opportunity to let a person know how great they are!
