Valentine’s Day Gifts for Kids
Valentine's Day Gifts for Kids
In my opinion, tweens are often the hardest to buy because their tastes are ever-changing because of so many factors. Both teens and tweens are affected so much by their environment that something they love today could be completely forgotten by tomorrow. Choosing the right gift for a tween can be tricky, as they're at an age where they're outgrowing their childhood interests but haven't fully embraced their teenage selves yet. I want my gifts to be something that the receiver will use rather than sitting there in an unopened box so I try hard when it comes to gift-giving. We have curated the perfect list that will excite and engage any tween. We hope that you enjoy this Valentine's Day Gifts for Kids post.
Questions to Consider
To narrow down the options, ask yourself some questions about the tween you're shopping for. What are their interests and hobbies? Are they sporty, artistic, musical, bookish, tech-savvy, or something else entirely? Do they have any favorite colors, brands, or characters? Knowing a bit more about their personality will help me recommend gifts they'll truly love.
- What are their interests and hobbies? Are they sporty, artistic, outdoorsy, tech-savvy, or something else entirely?
- What's their personality like? Are they creative and expressive, introverted or outgoing, practical or adventurous?
- Do they have any specific requests or things they've been wanting? Sometimes, they'll give you the best clues themselves!
- What's your budget? Gifts can range from affordable stocking stuffers to more expensive experiences or gadgets.

My oldest would love those Beats wireless headphones. He’s actually been hinting pretty hard about a pair for Christmas. These sound like great ones!
One of my friends has a teenage son, and I would recommend the 4 in 1 Build N’ Fly Drone Kit by FlyBlocks. That looks like a lot of fun. There are some more cool things for that tween/teen!
Thanks for sharing these gift ideas. My kids are all grown now so probably if I would get them something from this list, it would be the headphones and the speakers. They love their music and this would give them hours of fun.
I have two teens in my house and I never know what to get them. I know my daughter would love the mermaid pillow.
Teens are tough. As an Aunt to may, I cave and get gift cards :/
All of my nieces and nephews are tweens so this is so helpful! I never thought of headphones or a drone, but this are awesome ideas for Christmas! Thanks!

Those sequin pillows are all the rage this year. I love that you have that mermaid one on the list!! My granddaughter and oldest daughter would love that, and they’re way apart in age (one is grown). 😉
My oldest hit 10 this year and she’s grown up so much! Total tween! I want to stay connected so anticipating what she likes is a huge help. Love these gift ideas so I can be the cool mom.
