Boys won't grow out of their love of computer games until beyond their teenage years. XBox is currently the favourite with 12 year olds. Many are also devoted to a favourite sport and will welcome kit and accessories for it. With their growing independence, a mobile phone becomes a very useful means of communication with parents as well as a crucial fashion statement to their friends. Ipods also feature high on a 12 year old boy's "must have " list. Gadgets often appeal as will experiences like go karting and paintballing.
