It would help, of course, if I knew something about your son's interests. Not all sixteen year old boys like the same thing, I'm sure. Insatiable taught me everything I know about balls.

I just love to give and receive books.
Good ones are timeless, valuable and original. They show you ways of life you never thought of. They open doors you wouldn't be able to open otherwise. They make you wiser; make your mind more flexible and give you energy. 16 year is a good age as well to start with some masterpieces. At that age you are already able to integrate different ideas and make them your own. But maybe you think books are boring as a gift. I don't. A surprise-party is a good extra, but make sure you invite the right friends. My mother always invited people that she thought were my friends, but in fact weren't. She once invited the much older boy (I was 14 and he was 19) I was secretly in love with. That was just horrible. [Edited 5/20/05 10:13am] | |

what about maybe a ticketmaster gift certificate, then he can pick what a concert he wants to see,
then when he goes, give him so extra cash to have some fun while he is there | |

girls are so much easier for these milestone birthdays 
im guessing a car is a bit more than you wanted to hear... how about coupons for nights to use the family car
the book idea sounds nice
or, how about a night at a nice hotel with his friends you know, swimming, pizza, movies, that type thing ??? of course you will be in the next room but hey, they're "kinda" on their own for the night
to me, the 16th birthday is a chance to show you really enjoy the person they're growing into and that you trust their judgement. so, anything that shows hes movin up in your eyes and in the world would make an impact i think. im sure whatever you do, it will be lovely One of the best days of my life... http://prince.org/msg/100/291111
