ALT-1 Gift Ideas for 13 16 Year old Boys
Just a few minutes ago I was on the Internet searching for information about the X BOX360 console system which is a popular game system for thirteen to sixteen yr old. This is the best state of the art entertainment system for playing video games, downloading music, movies and Internet access to play games and chat with other X BOX players but be prepared to pay a good chunk of money for this system can cost between three to five hundred dollars which my husband and I indecisively bought this system for our son this Christmas.
An I pod is another gift that boys between thirteen and sixteen would like. An I pod is a slim device for holding up to two thousand songs and comes with a headset to listen to music by yourself. Songs can be downloaded from a computer. Although this device is a great gift for this age group it is kind of pricey. An I pod can cost between one to two hundred dollars. A radio with a Cd player is another great gift and it's less expensive than an I pod.
With advanced technology gift giving can become expensive but there are also other gifts that 13 to 16 yr old boys will like such as a gift card to the movies, video store or a favorite clothing store. At this age boys have their own taste for things so a gift card can save you the hassle of returning to a store. If your gift recipient is a sports fan a ticket to a sporting event is another good gift.
My son is fourteen and he and his friends like Paint ball and Laser Tag, giving a gift card or taking them there is another idea. If the boy you're giving the gift to isn't reluctant to go with an adult, a day at an amusement park or out to dinner is a nice gift so you can spend time together. If money is an issue the best gift you can give a boy thirteen to sixteen is your time and attention.
