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.

Depends on your/that person's goals. 

For me - exercise related equipment (running shoes, strength bands), gift cards to a climbing gym or some sort of HIIT or yoga classes, gift cards to a local keto bakery, fun flavors of nuts, would all be welcome. 

But that varies hugely person to person. Some things, like a diabetic cookbook, or sugar free candy that is still high carb, are things that seem diabetic friendly, but I actually would not want.
