Christmas Gift guide for Teens 2013
what gift should you buy for a Teenager this Christmas?
Teenagers can be the hardest age to buy gifts for, apart from Money, what can you get your Teen this Christmas that will be a hit with them?
I spoke to a 16-year-old boy and a 14-year-old girl, to find out what gifts teenagers would really thank you for this Christmas.
Nothing has made this gift guide without the seal of approval from teenagers.

Utilising its audio-vibration-conduction-system, the BoomBall effectively uses any empty space as an amplifier, so the larger the space, the bigger the sound.
