Best Gifts for Teens - Presents for Teenagers

Updated on July 1, 2017

It doesn`t matter if you are looking for a birthday present for your teenage (son/daughter/nephew/niece) or if Christmas is already there and you still hasn`t decided what to offer.

The decision is never easy... they are never happy with things chosen by grownups and because of that it is very important to start by making an unwisely choice - they will love it!

Surprise us!

Knowing your teen...

... can make things much easier for you.

You may find great clues just by watching what they love to do with their time.

Some like to read and or listen to music, others just stand there doing nothing... there are the sportive kind of teen and those are not easy to track - they never standstill and you will probably find some difficulties being around them enough time to find out what they really like.

There are also a few teens who will only be satisfied if you offer them a luxurious and expensive gift... well, if you think he/she deserves it then why not!?

But you can not give up already! This hub will help you on your task and in the end you will get your teen`s appreciation and respect. You will never ever be an old and uninteresting person in their eyes.

Every teen loves to be surprised and that is one of the ways to choose a gift for a teen - go for something they will never remember of...

Like a nice HD Camcorder which any teen dreams about but probably won`t expect to get anytime soon.

You can even send an anonymous gift like a web camera to your teenager and then connect with him/her through video-conference and only then reveal who offered them their new webcam.

I suggest you try to think of other stuff beside the examples included in this hub, the choices are endless!

Good luck!

First suggestion:

If your teen loves animals and always wished to own a pet, then this next gift will make him/her happy and impressed by your originality.

Nothing better than an original fish bowl which hangs on the wall...

This is also a good gift because little fishes tend to make good friends among teenagers, they will not make much of a filthiness and that should be enough for you to choose a little fish instead of a dog or a bird... don`t you agree!?

Few teens does not like to hear music...

A great way to please any teen who loves music is to offer a music gift card and let him/her choose the music they like the most.

iTunes Gift Cards will give them a great music selection to choose from.

It is easy to give (you can even email it) and any teenager will give good use to it.

And the best way to keep them occupied without driving you crazy with their music is to offer them a good set of headphones.

It is important to choose a stylish model, no teenager will want to wear a pair of ugly and heavy headphones.

They will love to wear them and you will be able to rest your ears.

Hummm... I love your smell!

Teens are always thinking about pleasing the other gender...

So there is nothing better than offer them something that will make them look good.

Clothes and accessories are also good choices but first comes hygiene... most teenagers will consider the following gift as rubbish but wait until they find out the power of smell.

After using it for the first time and experience the results on their friends they will be looking forward to get another of your gifts in the future.

Teens always love recreational activities

Listen to music while riding

If your teen loves sports and the outdoors perhaps bicycles and music are his/her things... then you should try something that he/she will never leave behind:

Buy them an iHome Bike - Bicycle Speakers for iPod

If you want to earn their respect you must make sure they will remember who gave them the best gift ever!

Gifts for Teens: How About a Lexus?

You can not afford a Lexus?

Then you can always offer a nice RC car to your teen.

They might think it`s a simple toy but after they experience the power and control of modern Electric RC cars they will spend lots of time playing with it.

Like any other hobby radio controlled cars help teenagers finding new friends and spend good time outdoors having fun.

Depending on your budget there are many RC cars on the market to choose from.
