I work at Smiggle, a funky stationery brand that caters to children of all ages. Recently, I have noticed a lot of customers asking what they can get for boys. We do get a lot more female than male customers, but boys are just as enthusiastic about Smiggle products as girls.
To help Smiggle customers who are unsure of what to get for a boy, I have constructed this list, counting down 5 to 1, the top 5 most popular Smiggle products for boys.

| NO. 5 |
No. 5 - Pop out Pencil Case
The Pop out Pencil Case is a top seller and a favourite with all school children. It comes with a built in compass and has two buttons, one which opens the built in sharpener and the other that pops up a plastic pencil holder.
 |
| NO. 4 |
No. 4 – Hardtop Pencil Case (medium)
The medium Hardtop Pencil Case has been a top seller the entire time I have worked at Smiggle. There are a few different styles and designs; the bubble, bubble with coloured zip, moonscape and spots. These pencil cases have loads of space, pen and pencil holders and mesh pockets.

| NO. 3 |
No 3. Slapbands
We have lot of customers come in just to buy Slapbands. Customers can accessorise with our large range of different colours and styles (we even have spiky and glow in the dark Slapbands).
 |
| NO. 2 |
No 2. Electric Eraser
We have had lots of boys coming in store specifically to buy Electric Erasers; I think they’ve become somewhat of a fad in primary schools. They work with a light touch to paper and are very handy for erasing mistakes quickly.
 |
| NO.1 |
The Snake Puzzle is one of
our top sellers and one of my personal favourite products. I cannot tell you
how many quiet hours at work I have spent making balls, dogs and pythons out of
a Snake Puzzle. I can remember a time when the Snake Puzzle was out of stock and
we had boys, girls and parents regularly coming in to check if we had received
any. You can mould the Snake Puzzle into loads of different shapes.
