25 Gift Ideas for Seniors

From Adult Night Lights to Elderly-Monitoring Wristbands

— December 23, 2015 — Life-Stages
These gift ideas for seniors range from adult night nights to elderly-monitoring wristbands that ensure users are keeping track of their health, safety and overall well-being. Whether shopping for a spouse, parent of grandparent this holiday, one can't go wrong when investing in one of these holiday items.

Standouts include health gadgets like cloud-connected medication reminders and elder-assisting eyewear frames that help users conduct household tasks more efficiently. Other notable examples include smart home phone systems that resemble a traditional rotary phone while featuring touchscreen and video calling capabilities.

Those looking for more experiential gift ideas for seniors can invest in an elderly graffiti or tech workshop for their loved one. While emerging tech workshops keep seniors connected and informed of new software and devices, an elderly graffiti class sparks creativity at any age.
