    Default gift ideas 13 yo boy

    I am completely out of ideas for gifts for DS. He only wanted an expensive gaming computer that we will not be buying him, so I am at a loss. What are you getting your 13 yo boys?

    Never argue with an idiot. He'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

    My nearly 13 yo is asking for Lego sets. We bought him Beats headphones last year on a whim and he loves them if your son doesn’t have nice headphones yet.

    What are his interests? Sports? Mine is a year older, had a few fav hockey and basketball jerseys (ended up with tshirts mostly not 150.00 jerseys), basketball, backpack to take basketball on his bike, new bike seat (refused to upgrade from his little bike he's outgrown, apparently it's cool to ride a small bike now, but he wants a comfy seat), new headphones, charging cords for phone, xbox gift cards and gift cards to his fav food spots (he and his sister like to go get Panda Express/ChikfilA etc when I'm working late etc.).

    Buying the kids a joint gift- Oculus 2 VR.
    Board games, video games and cash are my only other ideas so far.

    Could have written this post! Keep the ideas coming!! Mine got an expensive electric guitar last year, but then gave up guitar to focus on cello. He has everything he needs, so we are still searching. Just had bday this month also...

    DS2 is 12 and 7th grade. He's getting a phone - his first one. He hasn't necessarily asked, but DS1 and DD both got theirs for Christmas in 7th so I am pretty sure he's expecting it.

    He's getting a Rocketbook, maybe a skateboard, a new bed comforter, slippers. For his birthday he got nicer headphones with a microphone that he now uses for Zoom as needed, and gaming with friends.

    He plays soccer and basketball, runs cross country and track. He spends way too much time on the xbox and watching youtube. He hates to read, doesn't really listen to music and is not really into clothes.

    I think this is such a hard age with boys! (or at least it is for me)

    Does he have a Fit Bit type device?
