Best Answer

A girl becomes a Bat Mitzvah on her 12th birthday. This is when she is considered an adult in regard to taking on the religious responsibilities of a Jewish adult. The Bat Mitzvah ceremony for Jewish girls is how the girl publicly acknowledges that she is willing to accept this responsibility. A Bar Mitzvah is the same thing for a Jewish boy at the age of thirteen
