If he doesn't play videogames, then I don't really know what keeps 13 year olds entertained. Money is a cheap cough out, but it works :/
Another person: or if you are talking about a girl you can give her a kiss :) It will keep her happy, or a boy, the same thing would help.
Anyways you can take He/she on a date, or something, you can ask him/she yourself what he/she would want for christmas. (It might not make it a surprise but you need to know that he/she would be entertained for a few yrs. depending on what heshe asked for
Make up is the top thing for becoming a teen. Also they want all of the newest fashion such as jewelry and clothes. Or a cellphone device. Most teens like to text so a cellphone is a good choice as well.
I think a sleepover would be fun. Maybe do it at a hotel to make it a little different. If you can't do that then do something at home but make it fun by having "make your own Pizza" or "make your own ice cream sunday's". Make sure if you have a movie to pick it out before the movie you don't want anyone fighting over what movie to watch!
Party -Throw her a party! If she's a social person make it big, exciting, something people would remember. If its in budget have it at a town hall or something you can rent! Have decorations, food, entertainment. If you know or know where to rent a band would be cool or just have speakers. Then after have have a sleepover with some of her close friends. If she's not a party kind of person you could just do a sleepover! If they like to pamper them selves have a nail bar, face masks, buffet. Or just keep it low key. You could also rent a pool which can be really fun for a swimmer. You could take her and her friends into town, go shopping, go to the cinema and go somewhere nice to eat
a cell phone or a trip to the world.
clothes
a phone
Of course a skating rink!
a ipad is not a good answer, i need a GOOD idea
That would really depend on if it is for a guy or girl. A unisex solution would be to create a personalised celebratory website. These guys offer a great-looking product that doesn't require any technical knowledge... www.celebrate-a-birthday.com
A great way to celebrate any 13th birthday is to rent a limo, have the limo pick your child and his/her friends (guys and girls), then go to a hotel after getting a great spa treatment (manicures-pedicures and facials) for the girls and game room for the guys. The hotel could have a pool where they swim.
spin the bottle
A Barbie, a movie, or clothes.
Flowers are a great birthday gift. Putting together different nice flowers together is a creative way to show how much you appreciate someone. Most girls love to get flowers and candy.
How old is she? A gift card to Borders or Forever21 is good for most girls teen/college age.
Yes because that is there birthday gift from you and that is the nicest gift ever!
A personal birthday gift would be a good gift for anyone. It demonstrates that you put time and thought into their gift, and that is something that anyone could appreciate. Thingsremembered.com and personalizationmall.com are both good resourced for personalized gifts.
Just be yourself, it worked for me. good luck
give her your love and a big gift give her your love and a big gift
You can buy a good 4g phone for your friend's birthday gift at any tmobile dealership or online at ebay.com
A good birthday gift for a man would be sport tickets. Maybe he is into baseball or basketball. Tickets are the best gift because they can enjoy the sport with a friend or spouse.

Corn excrement.
