I have 4 teenage girls and they are fairly well kitted out with phones and laptops so I'm really struggling to think of what to get them for Christmas ( 3 of them have January birthdays too)

Any ideas big or small? One is autistic and has come up with nothing that actually exists ( except a bacteria detection machine which is thousands of pounds)and the other 3 are fostered and not used to having anything much so are utterly unhelpful in providing lists!! ( bless them!,)

I would not feel confident buying clothes and I think they would be disappointed with them - they are all quite young for their ages

They are all different but my 14 yo lives in 'lounge wear' - or pyjamas as I call them. She comes home from school and gets changed into them - in the holidays unless she is going out she lives in them.
I get her lots of mix and match sets from primark.
Books- or credits fro kindle etc.
Band 'merch' -T shirts etc (she is into 'different' music -tshirts are usually £15 + each and need ordering online)

My teenage dds do like a fluffy onesie (on the large side, loose is more comfortable), slippers, socks, headphones, nail art pens, perfume, makeup, lip balm.

They have fairy lights in their rooms. Amazon have a good choice. Cushions, posters. I'm thinking maybe wall decals might be something they'd like for their rooms.

Magazine sub is a great idea mentioned earlier.

Dd2 has a disco light like this. She is a bit of a dancing queen Grin.

Similar to other posters, my 13 y/o DD has filled a wish list with requests for scented candles, fairy lights, soft fluffy throws, slipper socks, a beanie hat, speakers for her ipod, an ipad case, books, adult colouring books & nice pens, pyjamas, cushions, mirror, beauty items.

My DD will be 13.6 at Christmas.

She has pierced ears so I'll buy her some silver earrings (eBay and Monsoon)
She has a very pretty but fragile silver bracelet from Monsoon so I'll look for similar

Make-up: she likes Benefit
Real Technique brushes

No idea about her music choices
I wouldn;t buy her clothes unless she pointed something out (she usually gives me the webpage)

I pay for her eyebrow threading and haircuts so I might give her some money towards that.
