Y’all, I hate to admit it, but I’m pretty sure my kids are officially in their “tween” phases of life.
Don’t get me wrong! The tween phase really is fun, because I’m seeing their personalities and tastes develop more and more. That also means I’m having a harder time picking stuff for them as gifts. If you need some inspiration for the tweens in your life, I got you!
I have the joy of having a tween girl AND boy, so here’s my shopping list for each of them.
For my girl, she loves body and self care oriented things. The most cost-effective way of getting her multiple items in this department is through gift sets or travel sets. I got her a lotion gift set and lip balm gift set. She’s also into zodiac stuff, so I opted for a zodiac charm necklace.
For my boy, he loves Marvel, and him and his sister love drinking hot tea at home. I scored him his own Marvel mug with socks. He’s also OBSESSED with Minecraft, so I got him a stocking-friendly Minecraft Lego set.
I finished off their stockings with a bar or bag of their favorite candy, a mini jar of Nutella, and a gift card. The gift cards vary between the kids, because my girl loves this local bubble tea spot we go to, and my son loves Dunkin’.
Shopping for tweens can be a pain, and I hope this list was helpful if you’re in need of some last-minute ideas. I would love to hear what stocking stuffers you got for the kids/tweens in your life!
