Sure, your brother can be annoying sometimes. He might pull your hair, torture your dolls, and fart too much, but that doesn't mean that you don't owe him a great gift for his birthday, the holidays, or just because. Chances are you have a brother that always manages to be there when you need him, so treat him to something really special. Are you totally clueless on what to buy for him? No worries. We've compiled some of the most thoughtful and popular gifts, based on his age. Whether he's a newborn baby or off and married with kids, we have all the best ideas for your favourite bro: teddy bears and crib toys to play with, finger paints and a rattle for that all important intellectual stimulation, and baby books, which he'll probably appreciate when he's older.

It shakes, it rattles, it does everything you need it to. |
A lovable companion for a toddler, the right teddy can be his best friend for years. |
When he gets old enough to be read to, he'll enjoy one of these books specially written for the younger audience. |
Even when he's in his crib he'll want some sort of stimulation, and crib toys are perfect for that. |
For older toddlers, finger paints are great fun and allow them an early taste of creativity. |
Now that he's older, it's a bit easier to find him a gift. Does he love sports? Buy him something sports related. Perhaps he is a book worm? Look for books in his favourite series of novels. Games, hats, toys, books, CDs, movies and posters all make great presents. Check out the ideas below for more specific choices that your little bro will love.

It holds pencils and keeps them sharp. Not super exciting, but it's certainly practical. |
The most technologically advanced toy robots you can get, these can do all kinds of things, from karate chops to dancing. |
He's probably just getting into music at this age, so an MP3 player will let him listen wherever he goes. |
Walkie talkies are great fun and will allow him play all sorts of war and spy games with his friend. |
Ah, the teenage years. While your brother may be experiencing zits and mood swings, you still love him. It's time to find him a gift that expresses your feelings. Look for gifts that he'll enjoy or use a lot, whether it's posters and bean bag chairs to decorate his room or a USB key to carry the rough draft of that essay he was meant to hand in two days ago.

If he's moved out he's going to want to decorate his new place, so give him a head start with some posters. |
The most portable and convenient of all chairs, this is perfect for college students. |
A memory stick is a practical albeit boring gift, but you can liven it up by getting him one that has a fun shape. |
So he's out of the house (maybe), off on his own, and finally starting his life. Try to find gifts that caters to an activity he still enjoys (music, art, working out, etc.) or one that will help him make the transition from campus dude to corporate adult. Presents for the home and office are excellent choices.
