15 Fun Easter Basket Gifts For Teens

Need some more ideas to put together a cheap Easter basket? Check out our Tips For Creating An Easter Basket On A Budget.

Lip balm

Oh my gosh. The amount of lip balm tubes that teen girls go through is insane. They’re very often getting lost. Don’t get mad. Just get back ups.

You can purchase a few individually or grab a multi-pack that has a bunch of fun flavors (which is much more fun for teens, honestly).

Claw hair clips

The 90’s called … and are wondering why claw hair clips are back. Honestly, I wasn’t the biggest fan of them back in the day, but it doesn’t matter. Teens on social media are loving them right now. Claw clips are all over and teens are acting like putting their hair up in them is the greatest hack. Sigh, right?

But, just like the revival of the scrunchy a few years ago, these clips are here to stay. So pick up a few and you’ll have a very happy teen.

Nail polish

As adults, we usually just wear nail polish for special occasions (or work, if you’re not still working at home). But teens? Oh my gosh. They’re forever changing nail polish and trying to recreate some of the viral nail polish trends, like glazed donut nails and milky manicures. And perfecting those designs take a lot of nail polish.

So definitely pick up a ton of fun colors, clear nail polish, and glitter top coats, and let your teen go wild. Not as wild as we did when crackle polish was out, but still.

Sew Mini Treats Craft Kit

If you’re kid loves crafts, you’ll also want to pick up this Sew Mini Treats Craft Kit. We gave it as a gift at Christmas and it was a big hit.

It uses basic sewing techniques to create the most adorable food treats, from doughnuts to avocado. It has step-by-step instructions and everything else your kid needs to make the foods.

Easter Gifts For Teenage Boys

Baseball cap

I can’t even remember the number of baseball caps my youngest brother had when he was a teen. He had so, so many. And your teen is probably the same way. No matter how many he has, he still has to drop into Lids every time he’s at the mall.

So definitely pick up a hat with his favorite team’s logo on it to stick into his Easter basket. He’ll love it.

AirPods case

There’s a very good chance your teen has AirPods or some version of ear buds. And a fun game you play around your house is, “Have you seen my AirPods?” If they’re in a case, there’s a better chance of you actually finding them.

You can get plain, neutral cases, but why would you when there are so many fun options? There are really so many great options out there. Just make sure to get one that’s vibrant so it’s easy to find under your teen’s mound of clothing on his desk.

Body wash

The body wash in your stockpile and in your bathroom probably has some fruity or lavender or coconut scent to it. Which is fine and delicious … but not to a teen boy. So, buying him his own body wash that’s a little less feminine is a great idea.

I don’t want to say “more manly” because he’s still a teen and doesn’t need to be smelling like musk, but look for one that says “sport” or “3-in-1” on it. Those are definitely geared towards his age bracket and skin care needs.

Body spray

I don’t know why but teens love spraying body spray all over themselves until the can is empty every. single. day. I can’t explain it, but they all spray and spray until their room smells like an Axe body wash factory.

You know what I mean. And you know that means body spray is an absolute necessity for your teen’s basket.

Sports equipment

If you want to keep your teen off screens and not playing a video game, sports equipment is a great Easter basket filler. A soccer ball would take up a lot of room, if you’re looking for a big filler. A frisbee is smaller and will take up less space.

Both items, or whatever sports items you can think of, will help your teen stay outdoors and active.

Gender Neutral Easter Gifts For Teens

Easter Candy

Candy is the perfect gift to stick in your teen’s Easter basket. Nostalgic candy is always a good idea. So go with jelly beans, peanut butter Easter eggs, chocolate bunnies, that sort of thing.

Of course, if your teen has a favorite candy, definitely grab that.

Board games

Another great way to keep kids off screens is with board games. They won’t exactly fit in an Easter basket, but you could stick it under an Easter basket and it’s still part of the gift.

We recently played the board/card game Sequence and that was a lot of fun. We also love Rummikub. If you want some more ideas, we have this good list of 20 Board Games For Families To Play Together and 10 Fun Family Games To Play Over Winter Break. These are really great for an excuse for family time too, which is always nice.

Beach towel

If your teen is going to camp this summer, or if you’re planning any beach vacations, a towel may be necessary. And, at the teen stage, you child is going to be a little more possessive and won’t want to share.

So, this way, your teen will have his or her own towel for the camp’s pool or for the beach.

Portable phone charger

Teens are always on their phones, scrolling social media, recording dances, watching videos, playing games, killing the battery.

So, picking up an extra phone charger and adding it to your teen’s Easter basket is absolutely perfect.
