Ideas for Cheerleader's Gifts

For the young girl whose life revolves around her sport of cheerleading, give her a gift that shows off her love of team spirit. This cheerleading gift can be useful during her practices, performances or games. It can also be given purely as a keepsake or a way of displaying what she is proud to be a part of.

  1. Hair Bow

    • One of a cheerleader's most prominent accessories is the bow in her hair. This flashy hair piece is a way of unifying her cheerleading squad and finishing off her look. Give a member of a cheer squad a personalized hair bow as a gift. This bow can feature her name, team colors or favorite design. The bow can be in a leopard, zebra, polka-dot or stripped print. One or more solid colors that reflect her school can be used as well. A generous gift idea would be to give one of the personalized bows to each member of her squad so all will match.

    Picture Frame

    • Give a cheerleader a personalized picture frame as a way to display her favorite moments cheering on her team or performing in a competition. The photo you put in the frame can also feature the cheerleader doing a stunt, jump, tumbling or posing for the camera. Personalize the picture frame by selecting one in the colors of her school and have her name or squad name engraved on the frame as well. Images that relate to cheerleading such as a megaphone or pom-poms are appropriate detailing for this frame gift.

    Throw

    • Present a cheerleader with a personalized cheerleading throw to curl up in when she is not busy perfecting her moves. This blanket can feature her school colors, her name, the name of her school or mascot. Images featured on the throw can include pom-poms, megaphones and cheerleaders performing jumps, stunts or cheer motions. The throw can be hung on a wall or an afghan rack for decoration, or used daily. It makes a nice gift for a cheerleader to bring along for out-of-town cheerleading competitions or sporting events.

    Jewelry

    • Surprise the cheerleader in your life with a meaningful piece of jewelry that reflects her participation in cheerleading. Give her a pair of earrings, a necklace or a bracelet that displays a heart, megaphone or pom-poms. Engrave her name, initials, school name, mascot name or the word "cheer" onto the piece of jewelry. To further personalize the piece, add her birthstone. This gift is ideal for someone who has just made the cheerleading squad, won a competition or as a birthday or holiday gift.
