One of the most special, awkward as well as difficult part of a person's life is the "tween" stage. Being a tween means that a person is not yet old enough to be considered a teen but is at the same time to old to be considered a kid. It is during this time that "tweens" start to develop their own personality which affects their choices. The personalities that each tween develops affect their choice of clothing as well as their choices of accessories like bracelets and necklaces which make them one of the favorite markets these days.
Individuals with the age of 10-12 are what we call as tweens. The term tween is in reality marketing demographic which is also known as the "in-between" stage. At this stage of a person's life, they are not yet considered as teenagers but are also no longer considered as kids as they no longer spend much time and focus on playing. Rapid social, psychological, emotional and physiological developments are undergone during this time which greatly affect and help in the development of the tween's personality. Different activities which tweens usually participate in further help identify their particular interests.
Tweens have their own unique fashion style. Tweens, especially tween girls are quite into fashion. They like to wear clothes which they see in television and other media. They also love accessories such as bracelets, necklaces, earrings, etc. Some of the more popular items among tweens include knee socks, converse, and bracelets. Knee socks as one of the most favorite things of tweens are basically the same as the ones popular during the 1980's. The funkier the designs of the socks, the more tweens love them. Other than knee socks, tweens also love converse shoes which come in a variety of styles and colors which tweens can choose from. Finally, we have the bracelets which are very popular among tweens. Bracelets targeting tweens are usually colorful and come in various designs and materials. The most loved brands include the jelly bracelets, rhinestones, happy bunny, and silly bracelets.
Difficult and awkward are the two words we previously used to describe the tween stage. It is in this time that the person wants to grow faster making them easily bored and very difficult to entertain. However, this problem can be easily remedied by providing tweens with crafty and rewarding activities which can easily capture their attention. Making accessories like bracelets and necklaces is one example of rewarding activities we can introduce to our tweens. We know that tweens love wearing accessories so why not teach them to make their own, right? Tweens who have their own unique personality will surely enjoy making paper clip necklaces. This is done by connecting 25 paper clips into a chain and wrapping pictures of your interest and wrapping the pictures around the paper clips. Friendship bracelets can also be made using colorful embroidery thread which can be mixed with different beads. Finally, tweens can also try making Italian bracelets which gives a free hand at designing giving tweens the chance to show off their own style.
The "in - between stage" or tween stage as we like to call it can be very difficult yet fun at the same time. What one need to do is try to find his / her own self and find that uniqueness inside that will make them stand out among the rest.
