Hi,
I've got a Nephew (got no kids of my own) who's 13 and I don't know what to buy him for Christmas.
He plays Rugby but I don't know much else. I got him a British Lions shirt for his birthday. I've seen a nice Powerkite for £29.95 - any good?
Any other suggestions?
A lingerie catalogue, cheap and a guaranteed success...
Yeah, M & S catalogue, there's some crackers.
Don't have anything else to say now...
Should be able to pick up a little syma s800g helicopter for a similar price - id have loved one as a 13yr old but appreciate kids grow up a little quicker nowadays!
Ask the parents what he is into....or possible siblings if he has any. As while one 13yr old might love RC cars, another might like xbox and heroin.
...failing that, money in an envelope.
Can't remember the name, but rugby legend Austin Healey now has a kit/lifestyle brand.
Looks nice kit. I'd say worth checking.....
🙂
Subscription to Singletrack magazine,
Scalextrix velodrome racing set,
I'd not thought of him like that before - but you're right. He IS 13 😯
I should have said that I got him a small r/c Helo for Christmas last year 8)
Any more ideas?

How much you spending?

of course doh!
About £50 😆
Check with his folks. But maybe bring him to something / an event - maybe something you're into. Bloke time and all that. Rugby international?
A penkife, headphones, ...
For me at 13 it was technic Lego....
If he likes rugby, then get some tickets to a match and take him? International tickets might be too much, but you could get 2 tickets for a decent prem match.
Check out Leicester Tigers site, to get a rough idea of pricing:

skateboard, something he can roll about on with ease rather than a small hard wheel thing. i'd say one of the cheaper penny clones... a penny will set you back 79quid. brighton skateboards, thats a brand of plastic board btw, had some good deals recently. failing that look on ebay.
and also definitely buy him a helmet too.
Might be into clothes
I'd let him choose though
Rugby match is a good call
Raspberry Pi

I was going to suggest an Arduino experiments kit :), almost the perfect age for that stuff if he is interested
eg
40 squids http://www.amazon.co.uk/Proto-PIC-Starter-Kit-Arduino-UNO/dp/B006H5MHPI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1353752545&sr=8-1
box of tissues?
Perhaps a rugby base layer? I know a few rugby playing kids and they all wear compression tops - some are made with wind stop fabrics and so on.
If he trains and plays its something he'd use several times a week, probably.
Power kites are beyond cool. Plus it opens up a whole new and affordable sport.
Go to powerkiteshop.com. Best kite shop in UK.
