Top 5 Gifts For Teens
1) Turtle Angel Locket
Create a sense of protection or remember a loved one with an angel locket necklace. Instead of a picture inside, this filigree-like locket holds a chime ball. It makes a subtle, light chime that serves as a gentle reminder of the spirit of someone special. Customize the locket by choosing the color of the ball—pick one with a special meaning or just your favorite color.
2) Finished Products
SteamyTech’s series of decorative art pieces are completed versions of their DIY kits that introduce The Grommet to growing world of Steampunk. Every piece is made in the USA from laser-cut wood and incorporates movable wooden gears that are a signature of Steampunk design.

Never worry about losing a charge while you're on the go again. The GO+ Wireless Powerbank from ChargeHub is compatible with any USB-charged device and will keep you juiced up no matter where you are.
4) Roto Brain 3D Puzzle Sphere
The Roto Brain 3D Puzzle Sphere is the ultimate brainteaser that offers vast possibilities and endless fun. By challenging you to unlock the code to one of its thousands of color combinations, Roto Brain will train your memory and critical thinking skills while testing your IQ.
5) Coordination Game - Junior Rainbow
This junior-sized balance toy was created as a rehabilitative tool to help hone fine motor skills—and it does it in the most fun and challenging way. The objective? Neatly stack the disks. That might sound simple, but it takes concentration and coordination to get the unpredictable, rotating magnetic bamboo discs to line up just right.
