Valentine’s Day gifts for teens and college students
1. Baked Goods
If you are a baker, this is your day to shine. Your teens will forever remember all the love you poured into the brownies and cookies or cupcakes that emerge from the oven. You know their favorites, just make sure to double the batch so they can share with teammates, friends or roommates. Fit them snugly inside one of these cute Cookie Tins and the packing becomes part of the gift.
2. Hot Chocolate on a Stick
These look so delicious that we might order some for our teens AND some for us, too. Swirl them into hot milk for the perfect cold-weather drink!
3. Chocolate-Covered Strawberries
Valentines just isn’t Valentines without chocolate and we think these chocolate covered strawberries look yummy.
4. Cookies By Design Cookie Bouquet
Take a look at the wide range of Valentine’s selections offered by Cookies by Design. Not only do they bake, ice, and decorate the oversized sugar cookies daily, but they also offer baskets of cookies that include chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, red velvet and more. Cookies are a great gift for your student to share with roommates and hall mates.
5. Alumni Association
Is your college student looking ahead a few short months toward graduation? One of the longest-lasting perks of being a college graduate is becoming a member of a college or university alumni association. Spring for a membership and let them begin to take advantage of privileges that can include discounts, career support and networking.
6. Fan Gear
March Madness begins on March 14 with Selection Sunday, so send new fan gear for their favorite team from Fanatics, the best place to shop for officially-licensed NCAA merchandise.
7. Notes to Self
These socks have built-in messages of encouragement for guys and girls. Buy them with or without this pretty heart packaging.
8. Truffle Kit
Do your teens love to bake? Ask them to share with you when they’ve finished a batch of these delicious-looking chocolate truffles.
9. Kendra Scott Bracelet
We think this love knot bracelet is a perfect Valentine’s Day gift and something your daughter will be able to wear with dressy or casual outfits. Available in gold, rose gold or silver.
10. Lip Balm
Lip balm is especially nice for teens who are in school in cold and dry climates. Jack Black is a favorites brand that is marketed for guys but we think the lip balms are amazing for everyone.
11. A New Top
It’s a nice treat having something new to wear and the recently-launched apparel line at Allbirds has some of the softest tops and sweaters for guys and girls.
12. Secret Message Custom Pouch
Unzip this leather-alternative pouch to find this message of love printed inside: “And off she went to change the world.” It’s just the right size for storing cosmetics or tossing valuables into a backpack.
13. Mini-Heart Umbrella
This cute mini-heart umbrella will NEVER be mistaken for a generic black one. Check out the unique emoji handle, too.
14. Pink or Red Nail Polish
Essie is our go-to brand for nail polish and any of these colors would be cute for Valentine’s Day.
15. Godiva Chocolates
Need we say more? These chocolates from Godiva would be a wonderful gift for your teen, college student or anyone on your list….

Chocolate bombs are delicious and have been taking over TikTok. They are like bath bombs but for hot chocolate – amazingly good.
17. Heart Shaped Hoop Earrings
Hoop earrings are very trendy and would look great on any girl.

Edible and adorable, this is an awesome gift for any pasta lover.
