Christmas shopping for tweens and teens can be difficult with fads that quickly come and go.

Rachel Naud, editor-in-chief of InBetween Magazine, joined Annette Hamm on Morning Live to share four gifts your tweens and teens will love this holiday season.

 

Nintendo Switch

Naud said you can’t talk with teens without talking about video games, especially the Nintendo Switch.

“It’s great for holiday family game nights because you can play at home on the TV, which is perfect for multi-player games or, of course, you can use it in hand-held mode,” Naud said.

The company also launched the Nintendo Switch OLED model, which features a seven-inch OLED screen, and new games like Mario Party Superstars, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl.

If you can’t see extended family this holiday season but want to get them involved, the Nintendo Switch online subscription service allows you to play with family far away.

 

Bath and Body Works

The teenage years are the perfect time to craft your signature scent, and Naud said Bath and Body Works is the best place to develop it.

“They’ll love the new fragrance Cotton Candy Champagne in all these fun forms that they can layer on throughout their day like shower gel, ultra hydration body cream, fine fragrance mist and hand cream,” Naud said.

For teens who like to pamper themselves, Naud said the Twisted Peppermint bath fizzy is the perfect holiday gift.

The Spread the Love, Not Germs pocketbac hand sanitizers are ideal for teens as they are on-the-go during the holiday season.

 

Personalized Gifts

To make a gift memorable for your tween or teen, Naud said to make it personal.

“Basically anything you can put their face on, they’re going to love,” Naud said.

She said shoppers can add images onto gifts at Staples’ Solution Shop, including socks, water bottles and wrapping paper.

 

Skincare Products

For the tween or teen obsessed with beauty care products, Naud recommended the Pink Perfect Clay Mask by Ayla Skin.

“It’s made with Australian pink clay that detoxifies and brightens your skin,” Naud said. “It’s perfect for home spa days over the holidays with their friends.”
