How to choose for teens
- Find out which gaming system they already own before buying a controller or console accessory, since many don't work across systems.
- Choose something social, like a party board game or a portable speaker, so they can use it with friends as well as alone.
- For a creative teen, a film camera offers something screens can't, but add a roll or two of film so it works right away.
- A model rocketry kit suits a hands-on teen who likes building, especially if an adult can help find an open field for launches.
Usually safe to skip
- Toys and games marked for younger ages can feel like a quiet insult at this stage.
- Clothing with slogans or trendy logos goes out of style fast and rarely matches their own taste.
- Gadgets that need a subscription or extra purchases before they work can turn into a letdown.
Questions people ask about gifts for teens
- What do you get a teenager who has everything?
- Try an experience they can share, like a strategy board game for game nights or a film camera that gets them out taking photos. Something new to do tends to beat one more gadget they already own a version of.
- Is a game controller a good gift for a teen?
- It can be a great pick if it matches the console they already have. A second controller also makes it easier to play with friends or siblings, which many teens will actually use.
- What are good gifts for teens who don't play video games?
- Board games, a portable speaker, a film camera or a model rocket kit all work without a screen. Pick based on whether they like hanging out with friends, making things or spending time outside.
