any tips for teens - nephew 16, niece 14? I have no clue

[Cyb]

Niece-as much as I hate gift cards you can't go far wrong with a H & M card or Zara or similar with a half decent amount on it (ie not a fiver)

Nephew 16- designer socks/boxers etc? Anything with 'Superdry' written on it?

any kid over 12 does not want your shit
