Unsure about what to get Grandma Ellen or Grandpa Bob for a Christmas gift? Need some gift ideas that aren’t the typical slippers or book?
Choosing a Christmas gift for a senior is a bit more challenging than choosing a gift for a younger person. Seniors might say they 'don’t need anything.' However, elderly seniors are often delighted with a thoughtful gift that is both practical and unique.
The best way to choose a great Christmas gift for a senior is to ask the following questions:
- What are the seniors’ special interests or hobbies?
Try finding the senior a birthday gift related to their interest or hobby. For example, if the senior likes to fish, reserve an afternoon on a fishing charter on a nearby lake, or buy him a new fishing pole. If the senior loves genealogy, consider a local genealogy class.
- Do the seniors have any physical limitations, e.g., low vision or arthritis?
As seniors age, they often begin to struggle with low vision due to macular degeneration or glaucoma. Find a practical birthday gift, such as a talking calculator.
- Are the seniors grandparents? Would they enjoy a gift with a grandma or grandpa theme?
Some grandparents love a birthday gift that acknowledges that they are a special grandma or special grandpa. Try a "You put the Grand in Grandmother" afghan, or a "Grandchildren Spoiled Here" Doormat, or a "Grandparents are Special People" license plate. For other grandparent birthday gift ideas, see our Grandparent Gift Ideas section.
- Are the seniors sentimental- would they enjoy a personalized poem from you?
Seniors often enjoy a heartfelt message from you telling them what they mean to you. A personalized poem for dad, a poem for mom, a grandma poem or grandpa poem can do just that. This birthday gift idea is both sentimental and heartfelt, and can be treasured forever.
- Are the seniors nostalgic? Would they enjoy a gift commemorating their birth year?
What about a birthday newspaper which tells the events that occurred the month the senior was born? Makes a unique birthday gift idea.
Of course the best Christmas gift idea for grandparents, or best gift idea for a senior is your time. Remember to make time for the seniors you love, whether it be through email phone or a personal visit. Enjoy shopping for your treasured senior.
