All of our children are treated to a visit to the “Birthday Attic” when it’s their birthday. We are usually well-stocked on gifts for younger children, however teenagers often have a hard time finding a gift that is suitable for someone their age. Some suggestions for gifts for teenagers: age-appropriate dvds, gift cards to fast food restaurants, stores in the mall, etc.
