Fun Christmas Gifts to Make a 12-Year-Old Boy and Girl Happy by Benedict Manovill

When you are 12, almost anything makes you happy. So it is easy to find fun Christmas gifts to make a 12-year-old boy and girl happy.
A great gift might be a colorful kite ... a ring, necklace, or bracelet that light up ... a trampoline that lets you jump higher than ever ... a set of drums ... or a digital camera.
Most 12-year-olds like to learn new skills so a few months of lessons on the electric guitar or the piano might be a thrill.
In the meantime, though, let us look more closely at a few fun Christmas gifts to make your job of shopping easier.
Heelys - Heelys are athletic shoes with a wheel in the heel. Zip down the sidewalk along with your friends. You can run errands in half the time. And, if you have a paper route, your job becomes a cinch. To use Heelys, you need to wear a padded helmet, knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist guards.
Power Zoom Binoculars - Your favorite 12-year-old will be able to go bird watching, see the baseball game up close, and check out the sights on a car trip or on vacation. Some excellent binoculars are 10X30X60 power zoom with a ruby lens.
