What are you getting your 13 year old boy?

He hasn't asked for anything really. He normally has vouchers for activities I've booked that we just can't do right now.

He has an Xbox but doesn't want anything not included in the game pass. He's really hard to buy for, I don't want to give money as he doesn't spend it. He's a saver which is great, but I do want him to have some Christmas presents.

I got him a new bike for his birthday so that's not an option. So far he has some new converse trainers and clothes. I've got stocking fillers and the hunger games books.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

My 14 year old is getting chocolate, hot sauce, and a weighted blanket. He loves an Indian takeaway so we will likely get one Christmas Eve.

I bought ds's led light strips from b&m for around £20 for 6 metres

BakewellGin1 · 29/11/2020 19:55

Led Lights for around room are great but invest in some cable clips as the sticky stuff isn't enough in parts to keep them up - they look fantastic and work well. We got 20m and did all around DS room.

For Christmas he is getting

Football Boots x 2 (Firm Ground and Astro)
A few sets of clothes (Lacoste, North Face and Ea7)
Nike Air Max Trainers
North Face Coat
Watch
PlayStation Bedside Light
Boxers
Socks
Sweets
Smellies
Dressing Gown (he lives in one during Winter)
PlayStation Pyjamas and Cosy Socks
Football Tops x 2
PS4 Gift Card
A couple of books

When football matches allow spectators he will be going to matches at his two favourite teams (hopefully before next Christmas Grin)

Any more suggestions guys? These are all great and I've managed to create a short list now for my 13 old who doesn't need or want anything!!

Problem is, it's not only me to buy for him, several family members are also asking and this year I have no clue!

He's just had a birthday which makes it doubly difficult Confused

A mini fridge filled with goodies, clothes, fifa 21 and smellies.
