Hello how may I help you? I need to buy a gift for someone I can help with gift advice. This is for a 13 year old boy I don't know him very well 13-year-old boys often enjoy sports. Do you think you he might like sports equipment? Yeah I think he plays football or basketball or something A safe gift if you were unsure what sports he enjoys is a subscription to a magazine like sports illustrated That's a very good idea The sporting news is another good magazine. I think I'll go with the first one. As a 13 year old he'll probably like the swimsuit edition I'm sure he would!
