What is ‘Girlhood’?
Girlhood is a phase in a person's life typically associated with the period of childhood and adolescence when they identify as a girl or are perceived as one. It encompasses the formative years of growing up, navigating the challenges and joys of youth, and developing one's identity, values, and interests.
Girlhood is a time of self-discovery, learning, and the gradual transition into womanhood, marked by physical, emotional, and social changes. It varies across cultures and individuals but is universally characterized by the unique experiences and growth that come with being a girl.
Supporting and uplifting your friends is truly important, and Galentine's day is the perfect time to start! This special time not only deepens your relationship, but it allows for time to reflect on the moments together you will never forget.
So, when is Galentine's Day?
Wondering when Galentine's Day actually is? Don't worry, you’re not alone. Galentines Day is celebrated on February 13th - just a day before Valentine's Day. So ditch the partners and head out with your girls for the ultimate treat day!
4 Fun Galentines Day ideas for you & your BFFs
1. Journaling
Journaling for Galentine's Day is a special way for friends to celebrate their close-knit bonds and express gratitude for each other. Gathering your girls and spending quality time reflecting on your friendships through journaling can be a truly meaningful activity.
Each person can take turns writing down their favorite memories, cherished moments, and the unique qualities that make their friendships special. It's a chance to show appreciation, love, and support for one another while creating lasting keepsakes that can be revisited in the future.
Whether you choose to share your entries or keep them private, journaling on Galentine's Day fosters a deeper connection and reinforces the importance of true ‘girlhood’ in your life.
2. Throw a wholesome dinner party
Want a low-key night in? We don’t blame you! There's no better time to switch off from the world and re-connect with your besties, than over a homemade dinner (or a takeaway, we won't judge you).
Light a thousand candles, overdress the table and find the most aesthetic glassware you can! This is the perfect time to play a simple board game or open a rose bottle. We couldn't think of a better way to spend Galentines Day, to be honest.
3. Hit up a painting class
Why not use Galentines Day as an excuse to try something new? An amazing Galentines Day idea is to book a pottery painting class this season. Not only is it fun, but it's also memorable.
Whether you’re practically Picasso, or painting really isn't your thing - it doesn’t matter! You’ll have a tonne of fun and make beautiful memories with your besties. Plus, you will have a take-home reminder of Galentines Day to cherish forever.
4.Hotel & Spa sleepover sesh
Who misses sleeping over at your best friend's house on a Friday night after school? Why not recreate these memories this Galentine's Day with an elevated twist? Book a hotel and spa, and start the day off early in the pool! Treat yourself to duo facials, and after you’re completed in the steam room and sauna, head out for some afternoon tea. Finish your day in bed with wine, snacks and your favourite movies - It literally couldn't get any better than that!
