So, your little girl is turning eight. Is this an event? It didn't use to be, but today it is. What are the changes that you can expect?

• The tween age is the period when children are neither babies nor teens.
• Girls seem to become very different at this age. They are more conscious of fashion and want their parents dressed just right.
• Girls talk and talk during this age. In fact, they talk non-stop.
• They become more difficult when it comes to their own clothes because they want to choose what seems right.
• They will probably spend a lot of time before the mirror, even if it is only to meet a classmate.
• If you have a little boy at home who remains the same baby (thank God for that!), don't be surprised because boys remain boys until their late teens.
• It is girls who think that they are ready for the change of a lifetime.
• Don't laugh at them for it and don't let anyone else in the family laugh either!
