The Oh, Hi, I'm Caroline Moss. I'm the host of G Thanks Just Bought It, which is a

podcast where people come on and share the things that they bought that they love.

Hi, I'm Jen Falick and I love recommending product finds, better basics,

all the must-haves that you didn't know existed, but once you do, you can't help but have to own them. I share my finds in my weekly newsletter,

the ultimate edit on my social channels and on TV shows like Rachel Ray and the Today Show.

Jen and I have partnered up to give you every Monday between now and I think right before Christmas,

a rundown of some of our favorite gifts that we're giving this year.

It's kind of like gift guides turned into podcast form.

So Jen, let's just hit the ground running.

The first group of people that we're talking about is an intimidating group for me but I feel like if

anyone's going to have the answers it's you we're talking about tweenagers.

Eight to 12 year olds give or take a year on either side and you have two girls, you are the expert on this.

What are you buying this year for your kids? So my short answer is anything that is trending on Tik-Tock. But if we're going to get into the nitty gritty,

I, you know, there's a range of things,

range of prices, but overall with that age group right now,

there's like a very consistent aesthetic there's a very distinct style and so these products really fall into those categories of what you know that age group is loving. So what is the like tween tick talk aesthetic these days like what are they into?

So they are into fairy lights. Okay any sort of lights so there are lights that I got my girls last year that I

think are still super popular that are like they were called OMG lights and

I think it's because like Charlie DeMilio had them in her room, but those you know are like neon lights that went around the border of the room and you could control them with an app. So that's one option another light option now that's sort of is more of the

aesthetic of the moment, if you will, are the lights that almost they're like, they're dangly lights that come

off of one, you know, you kind of hang one strip on the ceiling and they, it's almost like a rain, rainfall.

They come down.
