Shopping for a gift for a special tween in your life? It's not easy, right? They're too old for toys, but they're still interested in getting gifts - and they're not quite into gift cards (although I'm sure many would like cold hard cash).

Tweens want something that's "cool" and that their friends will like and approve of. That doesn't make it easy. We've rounded up a few gift ideas that we think middle schoolers will enjoy. Take a look, and maybe you'll find something worthy of the not-still-a-child but not-yet-a-teenager on your list.


  1. Shaved Starter Pack with Electric Shaved Ice Machine
  2. Cotton Candy Express Cotton Candy Machine
  3. Fujifilm Insta Max Mini
  4. Slime Kit
  5. Vans Slip-Ons
  6. Ugg Slippers
  7. Karaoke Bluetooth Microphone
  8. Harry Potter Bluetooth Speaker
