Buying gifts for family can be confusing and much tougher than buying something for a co-worker or teacher. Running out of ideas of what to get your parents or grandparents? Here are a few suggestions that you may find helpful whether you are looking at an individual gift or for the family.
1. Carvaan
This is a modern-day radio-looking device with pre-loaded retro songs across different eras from legendary singers such as Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosale, Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar, and Mukesh. There are options of regional music as well. Carvaan also has a pocket version called Carvaan Mini. This audio player will be the perfect gift for your parents and grandparents, taking them on a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
2. Amazon Echo
We live in an exciting time when technology can play a huge role to make life easier. The Amazon Echo is one such device, whether you consider the Echo Show with a display screen or the Echo Dot. Voice activated Alexa can help seniors from reminding them to take their medicines to sending an alert to a loved one when you need help. Calendar, weather, reminders, news, recreation games and music are just a few day-to-day applications used by most seniors. Besides this, Alexa can be configured to find your phone, create an intercom system in your house and even have your lights activated through the system.
3. Portable Battery
Portable chargers are handy and proficient enough to recharge your phone in a very short time span and at any place. This is an extremely useful device for a senior to have at hand so that their phone never runs out of charge when they are out.
4. Fitbit
Fitness is the foundation to good health and active ageing. Fitbits are are great way to know the number of steps taken daily, your heart rate, distance walked, calories burned and consumed and your sleeping pattern. This is one of the best gifts for a senior. This not only charts their daily activity but also motivates them to set new goals every day.
5. Digital Photo Frame
Every home has a couple of picture frames which represent pleasant memories and exciting moments. A digital photo frame can display a slide show of photographs and share memories in an unforgettable manner.
