Female young adults and teenagers might be the hardest people to get gifts for: they don’t have a house so you can’t get them household items and they are over toys at this point so you really have to think. Teenagers can be judgmental and a lot of the time don’t like the gift you guessed to get them. This is why you should do practical gifts. As a teenage girl expecting to go into college next year, I am asking for practical things that can help me in college or I can use to decorate my little living area. I think the best thing to get your teenage daughter is a gift basket, especially if she is going to college and saving money. This could be a good way to get her the little luxuries that she enjoys and allow her to save her money.
Let’s start with smaller sized fillers, these could also be your main gift, these are only called smaller because of the size. Little things like hygiene stuff like toothpaste, tooth brushes, carry on sized shampoos or conditioners, are always great ideas. These could also be your main gift, these are only called smaller because of the size. If you want to maybe steer away from the boring everyday things or food, here are some ideas under 10$:

Usually when I make a gift basket I like to add one big gift, or an expensive one, but if you are looking for a gift bigger in size these could work:
Gifts under $10
- Stuffed animals
- Posters
- Thrifted clothing
Gifts between $10-$30
- Makeup bags

- Twin sized bed sheets (for the dorm room bed)

I suggest you pick on expensive gift to base you gift basket around and then choose smaller or larger cheaper gifts to place around the base gift.
