Say “Congratulations on Your Promotion” With These Cool Gift Ideas

The end of middle school marks the beginning of a new, important phase in a child’s life—high school! Here are some ideas to help your middle school grad celebrate their accomplishments and let them know how proud you are.

Backpacks/Roller bags – There’s not always a lot of time between classes in high school, so that means carrying a lot of books and supplies around during the school day. Treat your new freshman to a new backpack or roller back and help keep the strain off those young shoulders.

Cell Phone Case with Wallet – Let’s face it: sometimes kids are hard on their possessions, even ones that are as important to them as their phones. Help them protect their devices and stay a little more organized with a protective phone case that stores money and keys at the same time!

Journal – Kids at this age have a lot going on in their lives. Sometimes writing everything down can be a great way to help make sense of it all, while still keeping their thoughts private. A personal journal could be just the thing to help your rising freshman organize their thoughts and develop their writing skills!

Gift Cards – It’s pretty much a given that teens are not the easiest people to shop for. Gift cards to their favorite store, fast food restaurant, or online music purveyor are sure to be a hit—and you know they’ll get used! Larger supermarkets often have racks of cards on display, so you can find the one(s) that your grad will like the most. Or you can buy them online: http://www.giftcards.com/
