If you have tweens, we’re betting their wish list looks a bit different these days. The toy catalogues are not so well thumbed, and trends, fashion, and the cool factor strongly influences their items of choice. We’ve got everything from style to self care on this list, because the holidays are still a blast even if there aren’t as many toys involved. Here’s some ideas for holiday gifts for tweens…
Great Holiday Gifts for Tweens:
Polaroid Go
The instant camera trend remains strong, and Polaroid has definitely made a comeback. These smaller size options are great for snapping pics on the go and the film is more affordable than for the type needed for the larger models.
