Its that time again when someone close to you is about to get their GCSE results, and after working hard, swotting up and stressing about their exams, the toll the many many exams take on their mental health its become a custom that parents, friends or relatives give a gift to say well done for not only completing their GCSEs but also getting the grades that they wanted.
We thought it would be great to do a regularly updated guide on the top 10 gifts teenagers are receiving for completing and passing their GCSE's.
1. The Instax Mini 41
This camera is all the range with teenagers discovering what we had for years with the Polaroid. And that is the pure beauty of an instant photograph. Things have stepped up a lot since then and the Instax Mini41 is well price and provides great instant photos.

6. Books for Personal Growth or Leisure
Now is the best time to invest in their personal growth, and one of the best recommendations we can say is the collection by Rob Moore. It gives some great advice on money, time and so much more and I feel if we had these books when we were younger things would've been a lot easier. Rob Moore Book Collection
7. Gift Vouchers
Not sure what to get? Then gift vouchers like our Dipp'd Gift Voucher for Cookies is a perfect present, maybe Fortnite or Minecraft for the gaming teen in your life or fashion gift vouchers.
8. Personalised Jewellery
The perfect gift as a keepsake, personalised jewellery always goes down well whether its for a girl or a boy. We love Not on the High Street and Etsy for these type of gifts support small businesses like ourselves.
9. A Memory Scrapbook or Photo Album
In the digital age actually hard copies of photos and memories in books or scrap books are more sought after now than ever before. We love creating these for our children for special events, and definitely one we will get when the time comes for passing GCSE's. We recommend to save a few more pennies is to join Quidco and then choose the likes of Photobox or Snapfish and you will get between 6-10% cashback on your creation.
10. Cash
Cash is king as they say and for the teen that has everything, maybe a crisp £10 or £20 note will do!
