My bf is 14 (turning 15) and I have absolutely no idea what to get him for Christmas. I'm 13 by the way. He's really into running (he runs cross country and track), we watch a lot of movies together, he plays a lot of video games, he also really likes music, and makes you-tube videos... if that helps. His birthday is also a couple days after Christmas and I want to get him something for that too... (I don't really want to do a combined gift)... What should I get him for both?


Answer
Guys usually like electronics so you can never go wrong with that. Thinks like ipods, ipads, computers and video games are always a sure hit.

However I suggest 4 presents total, one "cool" present and one "sweet" present, my girlfriend does this and it always works (so a total of 4, 2 for x-mas, and 2 for his b-day)

why 2 presents you ask? well it seems like a lot in his eyes, you bought something he thinks it's cool which appeals to his mind, and you took the time to do something sweet which appeals to his heart.

For the "cool" category, if you can afford it an ipad, or an Xbox Kinect might be a good choice. However you mentioned that you are 13 so you might not have the cash to buy him some cool electronics but there are things such as accessories for those electronics you can get.

For example you can buy him a new video game for his x-box or playstation, you can get him a new controller as well. You guys like movies so maybe buy him his favorite move on DVD, or one that he has been dying to see.

Since he is a track and cross country runner maybe a new track suit (shorts or shirt) might do the trick.

For the "sweet" category you don't need to spend money at all. you can do a collage of pictures of you too. a drawing if you can draw. a sweet letter, something that took time and thoughtfulness to do.

A combination of those too things would be an excellent choice. You seem like a smart and sweet girl so im sure that with some thought you can do it all for under $50 if you dont have the cash.

What should I get my two best friends ( who are boys ) for their birthdays?

My two best friends are boys and whenever their birthdays come around, I never know what to get them. Any Ideas for there 13th birthday? One of them is crazy, silly, and always making others laugh. He also loves playing the piano. The other one is like your average teenage boy who loves running, movies, video games, etc. Any Ideas???


Answer
I used to have the same problem with my two best guy friends. Hats are the way to go, if they have a favorite sports team, there are plenty of sporting stores that have really cool looking hats of all sorts to fit each boys style. Movies are always a great gift as well. Maybe if there is a new movie that just came out on dvd that one of the boys really wanted to see you can buy him that. Gift cards may seem too simple but honestly they are wonderful gifts for boys. That way you are guarenteed they will like thier present because they get to buy what they want when they want it for example his piano books or video games. If they have i-pods...itunes gift cards are always a good gift too. Every boy loves candy, i've learned that one. Oh, you can even get them shirts from thier favorite clothing brands...preferably a sports shop for the runner and whatever for the funny kid. Hope that helped a bit:)
