12 year old boy! Ideas!

Anyone with 12 almost 13 year olds? What’s on their Xmas list?
Mine wants a hover board with the go kart seat but I’m not convinced - I think he’d get fed up having to charge it. He already has a bike and that’s what he uses everyday for school / going out with friends, so not sure he’d use it much.

Apart from PS4 accessories, and one of those chargers he can keep in his bag so his phone can keep charge, I have no more ideas!
He likes trainers, clothes etc but is incredibly fussy so would rather buy his own and clothes are a bit boring for Xmas I think!

Stocking fillers are easier, he likes aftershave 😂 hair wax, chocolate, iTunes voucher, sweets.

For my DS13 he asked if he could have a digital ps5.

So far I am thinking
Digital ps5 (managed to preorder)
Headset for gaming
Pizza Oodie
Jelly belly’s
Cushioned under armour ankle socks (he loves these)
CAH family edition

Anything else will just be little funny bits and pieces

Some ideas my 12yr old would like.

Spotify premium subscription (you can buy this in monthly amounts and get gift cards.
Magazine subscription. MBUK in his case but there are heaps of options.
Addict a ball
Harry Potter Trivial Pursuit
Abercrombie & Fitch Hoodie
Playing cards
Nanoblock model
Guitar picks
Muc Off

Mine only wants a new wireless controller for his Xbox as his is broken and new wheels for his scooter. Are yours into scooting? It's massive around here. I got him a skateboard for his birthday too which he loves noodling around on in the street

Oh yes a new scooter may be a good one, his is fairly worn and a few years old now.

  • Spotify - good shout.
  • headset he will definitely want, and probably a wireless controller too!
Thanks!

Mine wants an oculous vr for Christmas and a bike for his 13th birthday in January.

Feckmesideways · 12/10/2020 23:10

Chilly bottles are quite popular among that age range for using in school.

Mine can’t decide between a custom designed scooter or oculus quest. I’m more tempted by the scooter.

My DS is 11, 12 next month. He’s getting a new bike for his birthday. Also on his birthday/Christmas wish list or things he’d like are:
Electric guitar and amp
Roller blades
Gaming headset
Gaming keyboard and mouse
Audio books
Book books
Escape room game
Pen knife for whittling
Burrito blanket

Mine wants extra storage for his Xbox, like an external hard drive thingy (he's got a link for it, which is just as well as I have no idea).

I've already bought him AirPods as he keeps stealing mine, a Cobra Kai tshirt, and a shark bath bomb that I kept seeing being advertised on Instagram.

mamawithfive · 14/10/2020 10:36

Oh yes he mentioned a chilly bottle, thanks, will add to my list!
You guys are all so organised, I haven’t bought a thing yet!
