13 yo boy - birthday present!

[MinistryofThyme]

I need a nice gift for a friend’s lovely DS. What have been your best buys for 13 year olds or thereabouts, for a budget of £20 or so? Happy to hear a big range of ideas as this particular boy is pretty diverse in his interests.

TIA 😊

My DS was pleased with a voucher for our local cinema, because he's keen to see the new Marvel film coming out this year.

My (just turned) 13 year old asked for a few presents from this website for Christmas. They have some cool gadgets and some really random stuff. But the price range starts fairly low so I'm sure you'll find something.

This book was his favourite thing. He picks it up and chuckles away to himself 😂

My kids love a movie night. Their uncle gave them a homemade snack hamper with all their favourite snacks inside plus a nice wicker hamper too. It was a popular gift.
Or Lego, it is always popular with my 13 year old.

Money for going to the cinema with friends.

Books, books and more books.

Anything to do with his sport (tennis). Really nice tennis socks were a surprising hit.

Even a nice tshirt is appreciated.

A year ago he got an eastpak small crossbody bag which is great for when he's out with friends. Fits his money, phone, keys and a bottle of water (we live in the tropics, the water is essential!).

Mine loves bubble tea and so do his pals. This kit is great value: https://bubblepanda.com/collections/most-popular-starter-kits/products/mixed-starter-kit

(not an ad I promise!- we just got a box for christmas which he loved)
