What the title says really....
I always struggle with my son but this year seems to be harder than ever.
He likes computers, manga, reading, the gym and shouting at his friends over the X box until midnight.
Any ideas welcome....

(So far I've got a phone holder, chocolate, bookmark, portable charger and novelty screen cleaner).

My eldest is 14 but I am struggling too. I was going to stick a protein bar or two in. Apart from that, I have no idea!

Dots for spots
Covers for phone webcams
Gloves that work with phones
Warm socks for late night gaming
A quirky tin for snacks for midnight gaming

Checkout present indicative for some cool deas too.

See if I can remember any other hits from last year!

Oh, American candy and weird cans of pop. Always a hit.

I know toys for a pound is aimed at kids toysforapound.com/ , but honestly, I have got so many stocking fillers for my nearly 16 yr old and for my 23 yr old and her boyfriend. They will have a riot with the games, blind boxes, inflatables etc. I am anticipating a lot of laughter on Christmas morning!

AuntieDickhead · 26/10/2022 23:20

Boxers and socks (slightly more expensive ones than he usually gets)

Chocolate coins/reindeer/whatever

I'm getting a pack of the "worlds smallest laser tag guns" and DC will get one each in their stocking

Book of some kind.

Keyring and pens, usually harry potter themed.

Honestly I'd try and avoid a lot of the novelty / plastic filler stuff that gets a smile but wont ever be opened or used. I'd be going for underwear, toiletries, gaming voucher, chocolate etc

I’m honestly struggling with DS 14
im going to put in a roblox and Costa gift card
i will be getting a mini box of lush bath bombs
ive brought him the nandos peri peri salt gift set
a box of his favourite hot chocolate from hotel chocolat ( I’ve since found out they are no longer doing so that should be a huge hit.)
A mini plasma ball
a box of Lindor...
an electric salt and pepper mill...(he puts it everywhere when he grinds it himself so it’s a joke present this one..)
now I’m stuck.
he’s not sporty, only likes gaming but most of the stuff available he’s already got or they are glasses or mugs which I have no room for as we have far too many as is.
so everywhere I go I find myself looking at anything I can buy.

Lottery ticket/scratch card
xbox gift card

Where can you buy a webcam cover from?

Last year I got them from urban outfitters

Elizabeth110100 · 27/10/2022 09:33

Thank you! I've got some more ideas. His sisters are so easy and he's so awkward. I don't want him thinking that their stockings are better. I know he probably isn't bothered but I am 😂

My teens hate Lynx in general. I've never put it in their stockings. If they do get some from other relatives it ends up at the food bank.
Do any teens still wear lynx?
