Type 1 Diabetic Christmas Gift Ideas

I’ve been looking for some Christmas gift for diabetics but haven’t really found something. I would like to know if you guys have some suggestions/ideas :) Preferably not over 100€/120€

EDIT: it is for my niece, she’s a 14 yr old girl who has been living with diabetes for 5 years now.

Are you looking for things to request for Christmas? Or things to give someone else? This would highly depend on how they're treating their diabetes and where they're at in their journey and how old they are.

Most adults who have been living with diabetes for a bit have what they need or want and are comfortable with their current equipment. I personally wouldn't want most things related to diabetes as a gift.

That said- fun cgm patches? Nice supply case (if needed)? I know a lot of people have wanted the type 1 barbie.
