If you had £100 each to spend on a 15 year old art lover and a 9 year sports fan (both doing, not so much watching/looking at) then what would you buy them?
I unexpectedly came into a small sum of money which I've put aside for family Xmas gifts.

Hmmm... For the art lover, a proper easel, canvasses etc. for the sports fan, kit of their favourite team, new boots... Not very original sorry!

Loves making art or looking at it?
My ten year old sports fan is getting a Nintendo ds2! Had the same - tiny windfall so can do 100 on each dc. Beauty box subscription for the dd.

How about membership to the Royal Academy of Arts so they get free entry to all exhibitions. You only need to visit 2/3 times a year to get your money bavk on subscription fees.

Same idea for the sports fan. Subscription to their favourite sports/club, depending on availability & affordability within your £100 price bracket.

For the arty one what about a sewing machine to branch out into textile stuff? Altering clothes and such?
