❤️Valentine's Day Gifts for Teenage Guys
I remember very well picking out Valentine's Day gifts for my boyfriend when I was in high school.
It was so much fun! Welllll…fun once I got past the idea of trying to figure out what to get him.
I'm going to save you some agony with plenty of ideas that are pretty budget-friendly, and lovable by the teenage guys in your life.
1. Giant Candy
Get them a Giant Hershey Kiss, or a 1-Lb Chocolate Bar.
Trust me – this is always a big hit.
2. Car Cleaning Kit
What to get a 16-year-old boy for Valentine's day? Something for their car (or the car they're dreaming about).
Help them keep their vehicle clean and sparkling with this car detailing kit.
Psst: here are a bunch of other gift ideas for new teen drivers.
3. Throw Throw Burrito Game
Sooo…this looks absolutely hilarious (and teenage-guy-worthy).
From the makers of Exploding Kittens comes Throw Throw Burrito Game. Players all play at the same time, making it fast-paced and attention-keeping. And at some point, there are burrito brawls!
Here's a video to explain it better:
4. Infinity Cube Fidget Toy
Does your teenage guy like to fidget with things? This one is quite classy and grown-up.
5. Guy Approved Airpods Case
You can choose from this Star Wars design or something like this.
6. Traditional Slingshot
If you've got some space in the backyard (meaning, you're not right up against the neighbors' house), then a traditional slingshot could be a great gift!
7. Toaster Bags
Teenage boys be…hungry. Am I right? They seem to want to eat all the time!
Help them make something quick (like a grilled cheese sandwich) with these BPA-free and otherwise safe toaster bags. No need to start the oven up…just use a toaster!
Bonus: this one is also great because it’s reusable, so they can take these with them (plus a toaster) to either college or their first apartment!
8. Laundry punching bag
You might actually score some brownie points with your teen boyfriend's Mom if you get this for him and he starts keeping all his dirty laundry in one spot!
9. Lanyard for his favorite sports team
What's his favorite team? You can find a really classy-looking sports lanyard for him to put his car keys and any other keys onto.
Speaking of cars…
10. Car Door Welcome Logo Light
How cool would your teenage guy feel if, when they opened their side of the car or their own car door, a cool laser logo appeared? No drill holes needed.
11. Car Documents Holder
If he's a car owner, then getting him this car documents holder will help him to stay organized (you know, the insurance papers, the car manual, and anything else to do with the car).
12. Trendy, “Guy-Approved” Car Freshener
Have you seen the line of fun, trendy, car fresheners? Your teenage son or boyfriend might enjoy this Big Foot freshener. Or, click through and find one that suits something they like.

Ever heard of a marshmallow shooter? They're actually quite fun!
