Gift ideas for older kids

We have a big cousins Hanukkah. I need ideas for a 12 year old girl and for boys around 10 yrs old.

Usually spend about $20ish a kid.

Need ideas? Now kids are into all computer and fashion stuff that's way too expensive.

Thanks!

How about books? If they are in school, chances are they have to read books at home (whether they enjoy it or not). Tons of good tween books at the book stores.

For the girl- some kind of craft project, fun nail polishes and lip glosses, a cute pocketbook/wristlet, funky jewelry, something fun/decorative for her room.

Re: Gift ideas for older kids

We give our neighbors kids gifts and they are 11 and 12. In the past few years I have given:
Card games (flux, scrable slam, dice games and another card game - I got them at Target in the games section).
Magic kits from Costco - last year
Jewelry making kits from Costco - last year
Lego games - 2 years ago
Lip gloss sets
