White Elephant Gift Ideas for Older Teens

The whole idea behind white elephant gifts is for people to buy gifts and then wrap them up without placing a name on them.  The gifts need to be for both sexes or you should put a B or G on the package to let everyone know which sex the gift is for.  Coming up with white elephant gift ideas for older teens is so easy.  Older teens love electronics, but there are several other categories that contain items that would make great white elephant gifts for older teens.  If you’re at a loss, just pick something from the electronics department and you’re sure to get something that any older teen would love.  If you want more specific white elephant gift ideas for older teens, why not check out the following gift ideas?

1.    GameFly Membership:  This is a great white elephant gift idea for older teens.  Teens love to play video games and this gift will allow them to play video games without having to buy them.  They will be able to pick and choose the games they want to rent for a variety of different consoles.  The membership is $21.95 per month and they can have 2 games out at a time.  This is a wonderful white elephant gift  for girls and guys.

2.    Netflix Membership:  Older teens probably don’t have the money to rent movies every week, that’s why this white elephant gift idea is so perfect.  You will be able to choose the amount of movies they will be able to rent every week and you will be able to choose how long the membership lasts.  For a white elephant gift, I suggest only doing one at a time for one or two months. 

3.    Prepaid Cell Phone:  Every older teen thinks they need a cell phone, so why not choose this white elephant gift idea and get them a prepaid cell phone.  The cell phone will come with some talk time, but after that they will need to buy their own minutes.  This allows the older teen to see just how important a cell phone is when they have to dish out $50 a month just to talk to some friends.
