Gifts for Kids & Teens £20-£50

We’ve all been at a kid’s party where, as the pile of unwrapped presents grows, so do the duplicate high street gifts. Make sure your present is one of a kind by getting the birthday boy a tour of his favourite football stadium or sporty activity set, like this headband hoop game. For the birthday girl, a gadget gift in the form of a selfie light, portable charger or phone holder will quickly turn you into the ‘cool’ adult.

Give mum and dad a break with a puzzle that will keep their young one entertained for hours. Personalised books and model building sets are also great educational gifts for kids and teens. Or, if you know a car-mad youth, treat them to a driving experience – just check what the age requirements are first!

Kids And Teens Gifts FAQs

What gifts can you give kids?

There are plenty of gifts you can give kids, but your safest bets include new toys, clothes, gadgets, and games. Some kids will appreciate a decoration for their room, like a fun night light or personalised piece of wall art. Others would rather have something related to an activity they like, such as colouring in or baking. You can never go wrong with sweets, but speak to their parents first to check what’s allowed!

What can you gift a teenager?

If she’s into getting dressed up and taking pictures, then a teenage girl will be thrilled with a professional photoshoot experience. A special day out where she can bring her friends along will also get her excited, so get her vouchers for afternoon tea or a fragrance-making workshop. What you can gift a teenage boy depends on whether he’s the outdoorsy sort or the type who prefers staying in with a comic book. New clothes or equipment for his favourite hobby will suit some, but a sporting or racing car experience is the better option for others.

Is thirteen a kid or teenager?  

Thirteen is when a child officially becomes a teenager. The word ‘teenager’ stems from the ‘teen’ at the end of the numbers thirteen to nineteen, which is why these are the ages where you’re considered a teenager.
