Getting gift ideas for tweens can be a challenge. Gift shopping for my son was so much easier when he was a toddler and a little boy. Pretty much anything that made cool sounds, lit up and roared won him over. Now, he’s very picky about what he plays with, and wasting money is not my favorite past time.

With my son just weeks away from 10 years old, I’m finding that shopping for him must be well thought out. Over the last few weeks, as the publicist pitches for placement into my gift guides rolled in for the holiday season, I came upon a few items that really struck me for my kiddo.

And of course, as I shopped on Amazon for items for both his birthday and the holidays, I made a list of all the things he would be into. Naturally, I wanted to share that list with you so hopefully, it could take some of the guesswork out of what 10-year-old kids are into these days.

Gift Ideas for Tweens

Now, this list of gift ideas for tweens is mostly made for boys, but there are a lot of unisex items in here as well. It contains four main sections; For the Gamer Kids, For the Science Loving STEM Kids, and Just for Fun.
