Best Stocking Stuffers for Teens

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Stockings are the best…when they have stuff that you can actually use. Here are some great ideas for small, and usually low-priced stocking items. (Most are uni-sex, and are marked if they are meant especially for boys or girls–not that it isn’t obvious that lipstick is for girls)

-Chapstick- Lips get so chapped in the winter. Smackers or Juicy Tube for girls and Blistex for boys.
-Altoids, Tic Tacs, Icebreakers anything really yummy in a cool container
-playing cards
-$5 Gift Certificates to Coffee Bean, Starbucks, Jamba Juice, iTunes, etc.
-New Ipod Ear Buds or a cool new case
-Hacky Sack
-Chea Pets or Gigapets, I know most of your kids played with these when they were little, but they are so fun to bring back a blast from the past.
-Mini Dart set or Mini car checker board
-MP3 Player
-pocket dictionary for any language they are taking in school
-Scratch-off lottery tickets
-Stress Ball: School is getting harder, they will soon need this.
-Watch
-An Extreme yo-yo, this is always fun to practice and get really good at.
-My mom did this once, some creative coupons: “One dinner and dessert of your choice” or “One weekend out of raking the leaves” or “One Tank of Gas”
-For student drivers: Air Fresheners, key chain, car mug, memo pad…
-Video Games or another controller for friends
-digital camera
-Pens (for girls those fuzzy ones, for boys ones that can write upside down or have like 15 tools hidden inside)
-extra cell phone minutes or money for new ring-tones
-CANDY

Teen Girls:
-Floaty candles- These are fun to float in little bowls in your room
-earrings or bracelet bangles are quite in right now
-headbands are also in right now as well as hair scrunchies or rubberbands…always need more of those.
-Nail Polish and make-up
-Bath beads

Teen Boys:
-Little remote control cars or helicopters… I don’t think boys ever out-grow these
-Swiss army knife
-Shot glasses…just kidding.
-New wallet, boy’s wallets fall apart faster than Britney after she had kids. Be sure to look at their existing wallet and get them something similar.
-If he is into cars: Car soap, soft rags, tire shine, drying towel…
-Tools
