If you're a mom or a dad at your wit's end thinking about how hard it is to make your tween happy, remember what it was like to BE a tween. It really isn't the most fun. You're starting to come into your own and develop your more mature personality, but you're still young enough that much of your life and surroundings aren't in your control.

And don't forget: for a pre-teenager, appearance is just as important on Halloween as any other day. You have to let them choose what they want the most, but they can't forget that it should be mostly ok with mom and dad. Still not sure how to go about this? Here's our guide for Halloween shopping for a tween.

The calendar year is absolutely filled with minor holidays that we often giggle about, but don't really take the time to celebrate. Take your teddy bear to work day, leave a zucchini on your neighbor's porch day and other officially unofficial holidays haven't found enough traction to be more than a silly Instagram or Twitter post.

You can follow in the footsteps of Parks and Rec Leslie Knope (the Galentine's Day founder) by having breakfast with your besties, or by exchanging small gifts of appreciation for your BFFs and handing out Galentines!
