Last Doll

• The last doll is a traditionally symbolic gift representing the end of the "childish" period in the girl's life and the beginning of life as a young woman. The doll can be any sort of doll, fancy, plush or even plastic. The doll can either be given to the girl as a present from her parents or from a close relative or godparent. It is up to the parents and relatives coordinating the celebration to decide.
  
  

Tiara and Scepter

• Classic gifts that are part of the quinceanera ceremony include a tiara and a scepter. The tiara is a symbol of a "princess of God," and the scepter represents responsibility and the transfer of power over the girl's life. Traditionally, the parents give the scepter to their daughter as a symbol of diminishing their power over her life. The tiara is also traditionally placed on the girl's head by her parents.
  
  

High-Heeled Shoes

• Traditionally, girls in Hispanic cultures are not allowed to wear high heeled shoes until they reach fifteen. As such, a common gift during many quinceanera parties is a pair of high heels, representing her first steps as a woman. The shoes are usually given and placed on the girl's feet by her father.
  
  

Religious Items

• Religious items including a cross, Bible or rosary are traditional gifts given during the ceremony, and they are usually blessed by the presiding priest. Religious gifts can either be given by the parents or selected godparents.
  
  

Other Gifts

• Depending on the budget of the party, many parents elect to give their daughter a grander more personal gift along with the traditional items. Jewelry sets, makeup, new clothes, purses and even electronics.
