Teen gifts this week lean practical, creative and a bit nostalgic. There are plenty of things for school bags and bedrooms, from the Moleskine notebook and Anker power bank to the Owala bottle and Marshall Emberton II speaker. Then there are the quieter little joys, like the Fujifilm Instax Mini 12, Pokémon 151 booster bundle and the LEGO Botanicals sets, which all feel very current without trying too hard.

This edit suits anyone buying for a teenager who likes a mix of useful bits and fun extras. The BYOMA minis and Sol de Janeiro cream bring in the beauty side, while the watercolour brush pens, Casio watch and LEGO Creator Record Player keep things varied. It is a neat, solid list with pieces that feel easy to give and easy to use.
