What are 6-8th graders into?
I am a child and adolescent therapist and will be starting a social skills grp in Sept for 6-8th graders, mostly boys. I historically have worked with little kids so I'm not sure what to put in my "prize box" for the bigger kids - any ideas??

Thanks for the help- will definitely be picking those up! Will probably get some candy too. Was also thinking of doing a pizza party once a month instead of weekly prices.....

I have done mechanical pencils for 6th grade. I also get the scholastic paperback selection for the age and let them choose a book- sports, wilderness etc books are bedt Mad libs are good too. Extra recess is always a hit too, but not sure how that would work with a small group.

Maybe a $5.00 Itunes GC for a bigger prize?
All the 6th - 8th graders I know are like mini adults.

I teach 7th and 8th grade - honestly they are not going to be into little toys. I would just get candy, especially gum.
