What to avoid when choosing gifts for teens
Beware of going too specific when it comes to choosing gifts for teens.
If your boy likes video games, a card for online play or new peripherals like controllers would make great treats, but avoid a particular video game title unless they have specifically mentioned it.
If it is cool, they have already played it, and if it is not, they donít want to. It is just a teenage boy thing and one that I just don’t even try to understand.
Should you buy trendy gifts for Easter basket fillers?
Hip fashion items such as watches or sunglasses may seem like an obvious option but approach with the utmost caution. Trends can suddenly become uncool in a flash, and teenagers are notoriously fickle.
If you try to understand a teen’s sense of style, you will usually fail.
If their wardrobe needs a facelift, gift cards again are a good option, but clothing gifts are better suited for a different holiday season.
What is one Easter basket filler that never gets old and works for all ages?
Candy is one of the best parts of getting an Easter basket, but kick it up a notch by going with slightly less mainstream sweet treats. EVERYONE loves candy in their Easter basket so that is one tradition that you can easily keep up with.
Now that you have a selection of super cool Easter basket stuffers, you need something equally as cool to put them in.
