Christmas Gift Guide for Teenagers & Younger Kids

Shopping for Christmas Gift inspiration for my gang, in particular, is easy enough, nine-tenths of the time. They’re all at the age where the money is the key gift, with a side order of trinkets and surprises. Whereas my youngest daughter is still at the age where she writes out her wishes to Santa. This is my gift guide for Teenagers & Younger children, so I will be sharing a few ideas for both as gift inspiration this festive season.

Gift Guide for Teenagers

Teenagers, in my opinion, are particularly tricky to buy for. They no longer have a specific niche that they are into, or if they do? It tends to change like the wind direction. I have found it easier to aim for gifts related to clothing {mainly shoes!} and gift cards for extra clothing gifts. But also gifts related to their favourite games & movies, fun things to play with family and friends and smelly treats are always welcomed.

Stablio Art Bundle

Any Stablio products are great for any budding artist in your family. However these CarbOthello Pastel Chalk colouring pencils are perfect for any child you know studying art at GCSE or A-level. They come in a stylish metal tin and there are 24 colours within the pack. They give dry, dusty strokes, just like charcoal and can also be mixed and blended with any other colour within the tin.

There is another excellent pack for budding artists in the family, with this Stabilo Point 88 set of fineliner pens. Perfect for adding notes to your revision booklets and making detailed revision cards. With the 0.4mm pen nib it is the perfect fine liner pen for all kinds of projects.

Positivity Planner

I love the idea of this Positive Planner Book. Especially when I have a teenager in Year 12, studying for her GCSE’s. This year, more than most has been incredibly difficult for one main reason that we shall not mention! It’s almost Christmas, so we don’t need that sort of negativity in our lives, right? Anyway! I love this book and I think it makes such a lovely gift idea for anyone who needs to map and plan out their positivity a little better!

Pac-Man Pocket Player

We love retro games in this house and if you do too then keep reading! This super cool Pac-man Pocket Player is the perfect gift for any gamer in your family. It’s is small, sleek, sturdy and really fun to play. The perfect handheld game to have when travelling or just because you are a fan of Pac-man!

Gift Guide for Younger Children

This section of the gift guide, as if you cannot already tell, is aimed at younger children. So I do hope you find this part of the Christmas gift guide useful when shopping for ideas for your younger children or baby’s first Christmas gifts.

Junior Jams Puro Sound Headphones

For any music lover or gamer in your house, these child-friendly Bluetooth headphones are the perfect gift. These Junior Jams Puro Sound Headphones have limited volume, which is amazing for little ears. The best part is that they can be wireless with Bluetooth capability and also come with a wire for them to be wired headphones too.

Metal Detector from Science Mad

This is a light weight metal detector, perfect for little hands and curious minds. Perfect for beach combing and playing pirates as you look for buried treasure. It has a sensitivity and volume control as well as flashing indictor lights that speed up and change colour. A very cool gift for the curious child in your life.

Drone Home Game

Drone Home is the first ever game, to feature a real drone. Which, lets be honest, is pretty cool. This is a fast paced kids game where you need to race your opponents to be the first one to get your alien-kin home. In other words, into the drone and flown back into space. Drone Home is a seriously fun game for kids aged 8yrs and up and will surely be a firm favourite.

Haribo Selection Box

I am always stuck when it comes to selection boxes for younger children, or even though who cannot have chocolate. These Haribo Selection boxes are a great idea and who doesn’t love some delicious gummies for Christmas! I know I do!

Planetarium from Science Mad

This Planetarium Star Globe features the stars to light up your ceiling, at your fingertips. It has star constellations that project onto your walls and ceiling as it spins around to rotate the globe. It also comes with a pointer to enable particular constellations to be pointed out.

An X-ray of the Human body Jigsaw

This X-ray of the Human body jigsaw is a very cool gift for any child during their school years. I know for sure that my 8yr old would love this, purely because they are studying about the human body in school and this would be very helpful, educationally, for her.

It includes everything from the skeletal system, vital organs, respiratory system and so much more. In addition, to make this educational gift extra cool, with a magic torch you can complete ‘missions’ and see this not visible with the naked eye.

The Amazing Squishy Brain

This science kit is perfect for curious kids who are wishing to know all about our amazing squishy brain. this kit comes with an anatomical correct squishy brain for extra coolness. Whoever you buy this for will learn about parts of he brain like gray matter, memory, emotions and where in the brain decisions are made. A very, very neat gift for the next little brain surgeon in the family.

Eat, Sleep, Doodle Duvet & Pillow set

This duvet set from Eat sleep Doodle is such a fun and innovative idea. And who wouldn’t love a world map bedding to colour in! I mean, come on – how cool is this! The world map bedding is so educational, filled with landmarks, animals of the world and famous icons.

Paired with this fun Doodle note pillowcase you can have hours of fun with this cool pillowcase. This will make a really fun gift for any kid who loves colouring in paired with learning about the world.
