to ask you what 14 year old boys like for a gift?

[Tangerinefairy]

My friend's son is ill in hospital, I really want to take some cheering up gifts. What sort of thing do you think he would like in terms of magazines etc? He is football mad.

Or any other little gifts?

Or any other little gifts?

Money. Money. Money.

Perhaps a football wallet or piggy bank with some er money in it.

Food!

Funky headphones go down well with teens.

Does he have an iPod? iTunes vouchers are popular too.

Mine like computer magazines. X-box, ps4 type things but, they don't like football so not much help.

Money. Gift cards.

Money.

Teenagers like money.

:)

Panini book with 100s of stickers?

My 13yo and my dh is sticker mad.

Or a stash of choc (if he's allowed).

Thanks all brilliant ideas! Will get onto it asap!

smellies...like body wash and body spray. and money! Hope he gets better soon.

A funky onesie or pjs from primark or similar shops.

App Store vouchers

This went down well with DS2 and his cousin who are both 14 www.samfarmer.co/shop

Teen boys get through litres of lynx each week.

Maybe a footie magazine.

Sweets.

I hope he makes a speedy recovery.

When my teen daughters buys pressies for their male friends, they usually get sweets (old sweet shop style), chocs, lynx, novelties and usually these go down well. We often do 'gift bags' with lotsof fun things to open such as a mug, smellies, sweets x

Does he have access to a games console? If so, a computer game.

Google play voucher

Of course I forgot the Lynx!! Have heard he loves that! X

A Rubik's cube?

Amazon voucher?

If he is a gamer, and has a phone/iPad with him, you can buy money on cards to buy lives and extras for free games. My ds is into 'clash of clans' at the mo.

Also magazines...loads available. 'Stuff' magazine is good for those who like technology. Top gear is popular with ds (13 1/2) and his mates. Playstation and Xbox. Depends which one he has (if any!!)

Loom bands are dead popular at the minute. He may not be into them as such but they might help him to while away a few hours.

How long is he in for?

Microsoft points and a computer to spend them on.

money, DS would hate most the rest.

A Fisherman's Friend

My 14 year old likes:

Four four two magazine ( or 4 4 2)

Biographies of footballers and other sportsmen ( not aware that he's read any women biographies)

Book/magazine about forthcoming World Cup

Guinness book of records - good for browsing through
