When it comes to Easter gifts, shopping for adults or young kids is an easy task. But when you're filling the Easter baskets for teens, the ideas here require extra effort. Let's face it: teenagers can be hard to please and will certainly let you know if an item or situation is not to their liking. Though they may be the pickiest members of the family, that doesn’t mean they should be left out of the gift-giving fun. To help, we combed the Internet in search of the best teenager-approved presents they’ll use during the holiday and beyond.
Take the time to craft a basket for teens that’s truly unique and will impress them. Lean into their personality or hobbies when choosing their present for the best results. If they’re more tight-lipped on their interests, go for practical items like a portable charger or a trendy belt bag. Should you want to splurge on your teen, there are a few luxurious products on our list, including a Selenite crystal bowl, to choose from. Pastel-colored items are definitely on theme for the holiday, but we found twists on popular items so the basket doesn't feel too cliché. Try swapping bunny slippers for these viral pillow slides. And for shoppers who want to save, we included plenty of under-$30 finds that are fun, useful, and cool.
Easter Sunday is just days away, so we recommend getting all the gifts ASAP to avoid shipping delays. Don't worry, we have plenty of picks available on Amazon for any last-minute shipping needs. Your teen will seriously be impressed with any item you get them from this list.

A sentimental gift that your child will keep for years to come. It's a catchall holder for their best jewelry: You can stack rings or drape a dainty necklace over the ears.
Taylor Swift has single-handedly brought about the revival of the friendship bracelet. The Swiftie in your life will love this optimistic bracelet to trade with friends at school or at concerts.
For the traveler—or the teen who tends to misplace their things— AirTags are a great way to keep track of house keys, backpacks and wallets. Simply slip one in a bag (or attach it with a holder) and they can track its location with their iPhone, plus get a notification when they leave something behind.
Whether your new driver needs a way to keep their keys close at hand, or just wants to go out without having to carry a bag, these jewel tone scrunchies have a hidden pocket to hold cash, chapstick, and other essentials.
Any skincare routine is far more convenient when you can take it on the go with you. Gift this travel-size, fruit-based set to your skincare-obsessed teen, so they have a cute collection to get their six-step routine started, including a toner, serum and moisturizers.
This corkboard has space on the back to hold your teens favorite bracelets and rings, and they can pin their go-to earrings to the front for easy access. They can even pin other things to the board like polaroid pictures of their family and friends.
The initial necklace is a super-trendy gift that any teen will love. This layered necklace will be their favorite thing to wear out with friends, and it comes in gold, rose gold, or silver to suit your teen's preference.
Give those temporary tattoo patches an upgrade with these easy to use (and easy to clean) markers. Your teen can use the provided stencils or freeform draw the design of their choice. They're smear-proof, but come off easily with soap and water.
This adorable and comfortable headband is just the pop of color their outfit needs. It will also help keep their hair back during their skincare routine—either way, they'll love it.
For the teen who loves to fidget, but has outgrown fidget toys or spinners, gift this discreet ring. It's dainty and will go with any of their outfits, but the beads slide back and forth quietly, so they can play with it all the way through class without being distracted.
Give the teen who loves to journal some spring refresh inspiration. These gorgeous floral ballpoint pens will be their favorite to take notes with, and make studying feel just a touch less boring.
This multi-instrument is basically a sound machine in your teen's pocket. It almost works like a gaming controller—each tap of a button plays drums, bass, and loads of other sounds. With looping capability, they can create their own song in minutes without needing a single instrument.
Did your teen recently upgrade from a learner's permit to a driver's license? Let them turn that plastic that's no longer needed into a guitar pick to help them make music. It's a great way to get rid of old school IDs and gift cards, too.
Any runner will love this crossbody bag that can keep their water bottle at their side, without needing a second bag to hold their phone, charger or ID. It can fit up to a 32-ounce water bottle, so their Stanley or Yeti will be right at home.
This trendy bag will keep whatever your teen needs close at hand, from cash and their drivers license to cologne or skincare. You can even stuff smaller Easter-themed gifts like stickers or candy inside.
Whether they want to host karaoke nights with their friends or film “man on the street” TikToks, this microphone will let them shine in front of everyone.
These viral rubber slippers will save your teen's feet from cold floors in the morning. And though they make great house shoes, your teen may even be tempted to wear them outside while hanging out with friends because the slippers are so lightweight and comfortable.
If you’re not sure what to get your teen, or want them to give your Prime subscription a breather, an adorable Easter-themed gift card will give them all the freedom to decide on their own purchases.
