Again, this year, the team and I created our Holiday Gift Guide for Teens. We loved putting this together. Let us know your thoughts!


1. LEGO Mini Bonsai Trees – $79.99
This LEGO set is perfect for getting teens off their phones over holiday break.

2. NOMAD Tracking Card Air – $49
Our family uses these over AirTags.

3. BOMBAS Women’s Ruffle Rib Quarter Socks – $25
My favourite socks this year.

4. Dunsen Dunsen Everybody Timer – $48
For the students who need a reminder to stop procrastinating and get working.

5. JBL Go 4 – Ultra-Portable, Waterproof and Dustproof Bluetooth Speaker – $49.98
Our go-to beach speaker. Mine is purple, so it is easy to find in the beach bag.

I am Yeti loyal, but every student I know has one of these (and they are way cooler than I am).


7. MOFT Laptop Carry Sleeve – $89.99
I use one of these for travelling, and the stand feature is so useful.

8. L.L.Bean Wicked Plush Throw – $49
Our favourite football watching blanket.

9. OCTOBUDDY Classic Max – Silicone Suction Phone Case Adhesive Mount – $20.99
Super popular with our students and SO many colours.

10. REACHER Wooden Sunrise Alarm Clock – $59.99
A good gift to get the phone out of the bedroom.

11. Karmeller Candies – Rambo Twist, Sour Cherries – $6
Best stocking stuffer (Vancouver-based Swedish candy).

12. GHIRARDELLI Double Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix – $34.99
The best hot chocolate (and really good mixed in with coffee) for holiday mornings.
As you finish up your holiday shopping, ideally with a little help from this list, don’t forget to explore our gift guides from previous years for even more thoughtful stocking stuffers and teen-friendly ideas. Whether you’re searching for something quirky, cosy, or completely practical, there’s plenty of inspiration waiting.



From all of us at Team Options, we wish you a joyful and restful holiday season, filled with grace, good humour, and all the little things that make this time of year so special. Happy holidays!
