Now they're no longer into "toys" I'm a bit stumped. An itunes voucher doesn't look very festive does it?

Dd is typical teen, just started wearing make up, loves fashion, boybands, music and shopping, so should be easy to buy for but it's all generic stuff that isn't special or a "big" gift for Christmas.

Ds enjoys sports, but isn't competitive, is quite quiet and reserved. Likes xbox, tv, reads a bit but not a huge amount. He dabbles in things but never really gets immersed in it iyswim.

Any ideas?

Vouchers don't look very festive but they are so appreciated as they love the chance to choose stuff for themselves. Age 11 & 12 I found silly ways to make money or vouchers look more fun (put money in a poundland toy treasure chest hidden under piles of chocolate coins, or in a photoframe.

My Dsis(14) is after a Fujifilm Instax Polaroid camera. I think it's for selfies because the version she wants has a mirror on the back.

Also on the list
Nike Air Force
Timberlands
Hair curlers
Wreck this journal
Concert tickets
Make up
1D Harry doll (I know!)
Hair accessories/cheap jewellery from Primark

I also have a dss who will be nearly 11 at Christmas. Sound like he's into very similar stuff to your ds and no idea what to get him either.

So far I just have little bits like Skullcandy earphones, chill factor slushy cup maker, Xbox points, iTunes card. I'm thinking of maybe getting a zoo keeper or driving experience or something.

Bear Grylls survival books were a hit on his birthday this year.
