    Teenagers are a notoriously difficult age group to shop for. But if there are a couple things you should know about them, it’s that they lead full and oftentimes stressful lives, and they’re just discovering themselves and the world around them. If they’re not at school, they want to laugh, relax, indulge in hobbies, and feel good about themselves, and that’s what our gift guide for teenagers is all about. From skincare and self-care products to games and gadgets, there’s something covetable for every teen or tween out there.

    Does your teen misplace their stuff often? Instead of chiding them, give them an AirTag that tracks their belongings. They’ll get timely prompts on their iPhone when they’ve left something behind plus a fairly accurate pinpoint of where it might be.

    Flowers wilt, but LEGOs are forever. And though this LEGO Flower Bouquet makes a welcome gift for teenage girls, there’s plenty more to choose from beyond botany-themed sets.

With a fairly generous 1.64-inch AMOLED touchscreen display, active teens will be able to track everything from running routes and step count to sleep quality and period cycles easily.

    If they’ve got an iPad, the Apple Pencil is a gift that makes total sense for your teenager. It’s a splurge for sure, but the stylus is intuitive and easy to use—much like using an actual pencil—and highly useful for scribbling notes, colouring, or sketching. That said, do pay heed to the iPad model your teen uses to ensure it’s compatible with the right Pencil.
