| Definitely whatever was crowdsourced from DCUM peri-menopausal mommies, that's for sure. |

| I posted about the slime and Pokémon cards. I’d be more willing to spring for this if he hadn’t spent literally hundreds of dollars in birthday money and allowance on this already. Would love other ideas! 🙃 |

| My 13 yr old DS will not wear clothes with logos. He isn’t trying to make some sort of statement. He just prefers plain. |

In addition to the Nike/essentials shoes and clothes, my 12-14 yo. sons have enjoyed:
Tickets to sports games (professional and college), skiing, high ropes course Gift card to a restaurant they wanted to try that we went out to as a family Big box of fav snack food (this is surprisingly well received) Fishing gear Weighted blanket/other bedding Oculus board games (kid specific) Cooking appliances (ice cream maker, deep fryer) Pull up bar Spikeball Fancy toiletries (hair texturizer, body wash) Fish tank |

| I used to get my nephews a box of snacks from trader joes with some cash added in. That made them happy for several years in a row. Also specific video games. |

Believe it or not there are kids who do have their own style. Usually sports clothing is popular. Official Patriots football hoodie or MBL baseball shirt for Washington Nationals Whatever he likes probably has something related to clothing. |

| New sneakers. Uniqlo shirts. Hoodie sweatshirts from Dicks. AirPods. A good iPhone with Apple Pay set up so he can pay for food just about anywhere. A nice meal at a local restaurant. |

My MS and HS boys like a box of pan Asian snacks for Christmas. We do that every year.

| DS has asked for wireless headphone, a huge lego set and v-bucks (Fortnite). We also got him some brain teaser puzzles, fishing stuff, ski gear and books. He really doesn't care about labels or brands yet for clothes so that hasn't creeped onto the list (yet!). |
