| Last year I got my teen son a high quality frying pan from sur la table. He was a little confused/underwhelmed but recently said it’s turned out to be the best gift ever since he uses it almost every day to make eggs, grilled cheese, etc. |

The Theragun a few posts up is a really good idea! We have one in the house that everyone uses. I will save that idea for next year so my DS has one to take to college.
As for stocking stuffers, my older DS would be happy with about 8 tubes of original chapstick. And some reeses peanut butter cups. |
| Graphic novels? |
| Was thinking about getting a pair of fleece lined crocs. Are teen boys wearing those?? |
Super cool gift! |
|
My 2 boys are impossible, keep the ideas coming.
I got my then 15 year old airpod pros last year, he had no interest in them. What teenage boy doesn’t want AirPods, my wife uses them now. |
| Sports equipment, nba tickets, sneakers, hoodies, restaurant gift cards and a massage gun topped my sons list. And socks and chocolate. |
The theragun is $300 at Costco - that is more than I’d even spend for myself much less my teens

I don't know about teen boys, but I have some and they are the most comfortable shoes ever. Not the most stylish, but I could walk all day in them. |
The Theragun Mini is usually around $150 at Best Buy -- it's just as good as the full-size one IMO. |
My 17 year old wears them to the indoor basketball court before changing into his shoes. They are very popular with his friends. |
Thanks - this was a year in the making. He is like all the other 16 YOs that I have struggled with anything other than a hoodie for years. I think my husband is more excited as they are doing a boys weekend and throwing in a college tour. Too many of our conversations are around getting out of bed - getting out of the house - and completing assignments. The drive + one on one weekend is like the credit card ad - priceless. (OK - that is how we are hoping it goes) |

My 17 year old is always cold in the basement when he plays video games, so I'm giving him a seat warmer. Here it is on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08QSBR18W/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Also getting him a caddy for his bed since he does a lot of homework propped up there. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08L2XF3KY/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 A travel safe for when he goes to college he can use it or on overnight school trips. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005K6JQXQ/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |
| DS 15 has asked primarily for cash. He also wants a new chair for his desk. He's pretty much impossible to shop for these days. |
