Holiday Gift Guide for Teen Girls + Teen Boys

November 25, 2024


I asked my teens to help me with these! Sometimes they can be the tough ones to find gifts for. Included a gift guide for teen girls and a gift guide for teen boys that tap into a few hobbies and every day use items as well. Hope these are helpful!

  1. Heatless curl wrap – We love these! Comfortable to sleep in, and creates heatless waves overnight.
  2. Quilted duffle bag – Apparently these are all the rage. Love the colors options, and that there is a compartment for shoes.
  3. Initial heart charm necklace – A good option for a personalized gift. Additional charms could be added on as well! 30% off today.
  4. Quilted laptop cover – Cute and trendy cover that keeps laptops protected in backpacks and travel. Multiple color options as well.
  5. JBL Headphones – A great price point for comfortable bluetooth headphones they can use at home or school with any bluetooth compatible device. Currently 35% off!
  6. Alcohol markers – My artsy sister Grace introduced these to Veronica and she uses them more than anything else. Great for illustrating or adult coloring books. The pastel version is on her wishlist now.
  7. Sketch Pad – These are the sketch pads I have gotten for all ages. Nice and thick paper that works with all art mediums like the alcohol markers! Currently 40% off
  8. Sol de Janeiro perfume – V says all her classmates have this on their wishlist. I don’t know why, and I don’t ask questions.
  9. Earring pack – 9 sets of gold hoop earrings from AE. (Kind of want these myself!)
  10. Half zip fleece – This is a popular free people dupe that has multiple fun color options.
  11. Paint by number – This has helped Veronica through many nights when nerves were high over doctor visits and results. We would do this together too. There are so many fun options. This is a gingerbread house version she is currently working on.
  12. Owala water bottle – I never gave in to the Stanley trend, and we were Owala fans before they became trendy because they are such good quality and much easier to clean!
  13. Gel nail kit – I actually got this for V and I to try, and I love all of the colors it comes with. Less expensive than one gel manicure in a salon, and easy to do right at home. I would say the polish lasts about 2-3 weeks. You can also get the polish remover.
  14. Hair wax + detangler brush kit – Slick back ponies are the current style, so this is a fun stocking stuffer combo! Veronica has naturally wavy/curly hair that tends to frizz out in the damp temps so she loves the hair wax stick for flyaways.
  15. Laniege sleeping masks – Most hydrating lip balms in a fun set that makes for a great gift – or a set to split between teens and moms stocking;)
holiday gift guide for teen boys
  1. Bean bag chair – We got one for Gabriel’s room a few years ago and it remains one of his most used items! His brothers try to confiscate it, and battles ensue.
  2. Spikeball – This was the game of the summer in our backyard and with cousins. It’s a fun one to play with a group!
  3. Electric dart board – A fun game for this age group in their room or basement for the winter months. This is one of the gifts we got for our oldest this year.
  4. Nike duffle bag – All of my boys have used these for sports or travel. Spacious but not too big!
  5. Owala water bottle – As described above – our family favorite. Good size and lots of cool color options.
  6. Portable JBL – Because music or sports radio at all times seems to be the thing! Currently 35% off
  7. Hey Dudes– Comfortable and trending shoes all of my boys love. Gabriel asks for these every Christmas.
  8. Fleece lined hooded flannel – Great pattern options, good quality, and a good option for those who refuse to wear coats;)
  9. Airtag Wallet – Both my son and my husband struggle to keep track of their wallet it seems. This is such a great design for keeping track of the valuables! We have a few airtags on key sets and it always pulls through!
  10. JBL Bluetooth headphones – Comfortable bluetooth headphones for music or games at a great pricepoint.
  11. Nintendo switch – We don’t do a lot of video games, but Gabriel saved up to buy this one a few years ago and it continues to be a fun one for road trips or multiple player games! Best price I found was here.
  12. Electric keyboard – Gabriel has used this more than I thought he would! Since it’s portable, he can store it under his bed. Lots of sound options and youtube how-to videos have helped him learn to play some really cool scores!

  • Tip for the gel nail kit–Olive & June just came out with a gel set (which is excellent but pricey)–they also came out with a “peel off base coat” that you paint in just the center of the nail–so when the polish starts to chip, you peel it off in one piece. Genius, and so much better for the nail! I think it is compatible with any polish, gel or otherwise. Highly recommend!
