Cool stuff for 13 year old boy's birthday

BitFedUpTheNoo · 28/04/2023 17:09

My DS will be 13 in a couple of weeks and am a bit stumped for present ideas. Please hit me with your (preferably budget) gift suggestions! So far I have:
-Electric razor - for his cute bum fluff
-New winter jacket because it was on sale
-Funko Pops (hate them personally)
-Xbox gift card (from relatives 😁)

  • Maybe a telly for his room (from GPs)
I was also thinking a new backpack but no idea what is a cool make to get...?

Watching with interest op as my little brother is 13 in October and I’m totally clueless as to what to buy hope your little boy has a fab birthday

"Cool" very much depends on your location (some of the things people mention of here as cool are what middle aged men wear where I live), and also your child's personality and peer group. Are there any older tern you can ask?

Little speaker ? Do those ones for in the shower still exist? Maybe something for his room, LED light, bean bag?

Some experiences? We ought our son some ski lessons at a dry ski slope for his bday. We paid for him to design his own sustainable hoodie on Raputin online, bought him some nice popcorn and planted him some trees online. The year before we bought him a back pack with camping/travel/trekking stuff in it and tickets to see Tim Peake.

DS has just turned 13 and the present he liked most was the clear perspex bird feeder that sticks onto his bedroom window with suction cups.

Basketball ball hoop
Thanks for all the ideas. He's into basketball right now so thinking maybe something like this?
