At total loss of ideas
Both pre-teens want ipods but they have not really used their small mp-3 players to capacity yet and the ipods are out of my price range. I have been reading about electronic drawing tablets that let you input and manipulate your drawings and I think that one of these has far more value than an IPOD. To the extent that I can afford it, I would like to give them fun things that bring them along into using technology. So far they each are getting a package of very fine gel pens, candy, and little odds and ends, and probably a gift certificate to Barnes and Noble.
