What is it about shopping for your parents or guardian figures that is so darn stressful? They’ve given you life, nurtured you, mentored you, so now what can you ever get them in return?! To make matters worse, they always swear up and down that they “don’t need anything,” but you know deep down that there is something out there that they could use. And for those of us whose friends or loved ones are or just became parents themselves, the line of what makes a standout prezzie can be difficult. But here’s a secret: The best gifts for parents are functional, sentimental, and can serve as a token of appreciation for all they do.
All of us with parents or guardian figures can relate, which is why we compiled our very own list full of recs we have a feeling they’re sure to love. For starters, if your dad can throw down in the kitchen, top-notch cookware or some artisanal olive oils will make his day. Another way to ensure that you find a really thoughtful gift for your ‘rents is to pay close attention to any household items they’ve been needing forever but have refused to purchase.
We all have at least one frugal parental unit that loves to hold onto things well past their expiration date. So if they’ve got some ratty ol’ slippers that are barely hanging on by a thread, get ‘em a new comfy pair. Below, we gathered 50 thoughtful gift ideas for parents that will help make your shopping quest easier.
And regardless of what you pick out for them, they’re bound to love it because it came from their fave child (aka you)..
