    Find a Mutual interest! If you both like swimming or cinema for example and she often goes alone or hasn't been in a while start doing it on a weekly or monthly basis.
  3. 3
    Teach her stuff! Be kind with her and remember your teaching her for fun, not for a serious exam. If she's just a toddler you can teach her anything from reading to clapping games, if shes older than that cooking is always a good subject and if shes grown up driving or another language are something she'll need to learn.

    Give her presents! You don't need to go out of your way buying her a daily gift but when it's her birthday or she's achieved something big, get her something she's mentioned wanting before, that's small.

  • Don't force yourself on her become friends over time, it's scary if you're asking her over every week and planning to meet her next week and the next when you only started properly talking last week.
