10 money gifts for teens

April 17, 2021

I can’t believe my first born is SIXTEEN!!! My goodness do they grow up so fast! I still think of him as the little boy on the left even though he is so much taller than me! 😉 If any of you have teenagers, you may know the struggle of buying gifts… if it’s a birthday gift or a holiday gift! Like most teens, they just want money. That includes Dylan. Thankfully, he’s really good at saving his money.

I try to make his birthday gifts creative instead of just giving him a gift card or a card with money inside. That’s so boring! I wanted to share these with you if you have kids who have a birthday coming up or are graduating!

10 MONEY GIFT IDEAS FOR TEENS.

1) The first money gift idea for teens is MONEY FRIES! It’s what I had given Dylan this year for his 16thi birthday! Watch his reaction below. Love seeing that big smile! It can be hard sometimes getting huge smiles like that from teenagers so this was a big deal. 😉

I included 20 $5 bills, but you can also do 20 $1 bills.

2) Another money gift idea for your teenager is a PIZZA DOUGH! This is what I had done last year when he turned 15 years old! He was so surprised when his little siblings gave him a pizza box..lol!

3) Would you like a BOX OF MONEY “CHOCOLATES?”

4) MONEY FORTUNE COOKIE! You can have the money as the cookie like this:

You can also use paper as the cookie and then insert cash and a note:

5) MONEY CAKE! You can make a 3 tier money cake and do it yourself.

You can also purchase a money cake if you don’t have time to make one! Here’s an option from ETSY!

6) MONEY TISSUE BOX! “Don’t blow it all in one place!”

7) MONEY SHIRT!

8) COLD HARD CASH! Make them work for it by putting it inside a large piece of ice!

9) MONEY STASHED IN BOOK! I found a couple different ways. One is to carve out a letter, like this one:

Another option is to hollow it up to fit the bills.

10) MONEY BALLOONS! Stick them inside the balloons before blowing the balloons up!

I hope you enjoyed those money gift ideas for your teenager or those kids who are hard to buy for! Try these out for birthday, holiday, and graduation gifts!

16 years! ❤️ I hit the jackpot marrying this stud muffin.. making me laugh and feel loved every single day.  Life is just more fun with him by my side.  I woke up to a love letter & my fave drink. We squeezed in a lunch date between kids camps & practices.  Lucky for us we get to spend our anniversary watching 2 of Mariah’s softball games tonight. 🤪

My morning routine.. going on a walk with Blaine and then reading the Bible. I’m on day 28 of a Bible plan. Honestly, my mind is blown. Like…oooh so that’s why we’re in pain when we give birth to a child…Oooh that’s why he created the rainbow. Sometimes, I notice myself wanting to go on to the next day because I’m wanting to see what happens next.

I use the “The Bible with Nicky & Pippa Gumbel” plan on the Bible App. Easy to understand and easy to read. It has a devotional along with Bible scriptures to read and helps you understand what you’re reading. Plus, it’s helping me become a better version of myself. #Godisgood

Omg..This was so good I’m still thinking about it! 🤤 (SAVE this post to go back to) 

Venti Iced Blonde Shaken Espresso
6 pumps brown sugar syrup
2 pumps classic syrup
vanilla sweet cream foam
caramel drizzle on top 

If you’re embarrassed to have such a long request, just order it online and pick it up. 😉 (I put the image of the order in the 2nd slide.)

Entering my weighted vest era! Comment VEST, and I’ll message you the link to this specific one that’s currently on sale! Wear walking or running either outside or on the treadmill!  A suggestion is wearing a vest around 5-10% of your body weight.

*Comment below if this is helpful because I can do more to save you time and energy figuring out what to order & make for dinner.

This fed 5 of us and is always a huge hit! Most of us had 2 each. I think Hendrix (my teenager) might have had 3 sandwiches. You can make 12 sandwiches with all of the items ordered but most Canadian bacon packages only come with 9-10 slices. Make all 12 and store any extra in the fridge to have for breakfast the next few days. Just heat up and enjoy!

House Diaries #1: 
Starting a series because why not? 😉 That one time we had a tv that came down from the ceiling because I didn’t want it on the fireplace!  I had such a modern style back then compared to what my style is now. The concept was to hide the tv when we weren’t watching on it since it was on a mechanism that moved it up into the ceiling.  Well, 90% of the time it was down because I didn’t feel like grabbing the remote, push the button, and wait 10 seconds for the tv to go up. I do wish we would’ve gotten a bigger tv.  This was a 55” and I think a 65” would’ve been better!

It was Faith Statement Night for my 8th grader, Hendrix! ✝️ Loved listening to him talk about his growing faith through the years and how he’ll continue his relationship with God.
