Christmas Gifts For Grandparents 2017: 10 Ideas For Grandma, Grandpa This Holiday

Grandparents can play such an important role in family life, and deserve to be honored with the best Christmas gifts possible during the holidays.

However, if you're unsure of what the best gift for your grandmother or grandfather is, don't worry. Check out this guide for some of the best gifts for grandparents that you can still get before Christmas.

For The Grandma Who Keeps Her Grandkids Close To Her Heart

If your grandmother is the kind of woman who truly loves being "grandma" to all of her grandkids—whether all she has is one, five, fifteen or fifty grandkids (maybe not that many), then a custom necklace featuring the birthstones of her grandkids would be a perfect option. Check out this one from the Symbolic Reflections Etsy page, starting at $20.00.

For The Grandparent Who Is Always Cold

A 100% Wool blanket, like this one from Woolrich, is a great way to remind your grandparents that you make them feel all warm and fuzzy inside with their love. Plus, if they're usually cold, t's a safer alternative to personal heaters and electric blankets that will still keep them toasty on those cold winter days.

For the Family Historian

If your grandparent loves to look back on family history and wants to keep a beautiful memento of the entire family tree, then this custom Family Tree Print from the Hallelujah Tree Etsy page is a perfect gift. It's a bit pricey, starting at $ 83.76, but will be worth the money when it's opened on Christmas morning.

For The Grandparent Who Appreciates A Reminder

If your grandparent sometimes needs a little help remembering to take certain medications, then a smart pill box that can help remind them what medicines to take and when could be a great gift. They'll appreciate the help, as well as the fact that you clearly care enough to make sure they're staying focused on their health. Prices vary.

For The Sentimental Grandparent

Are your grandparents the kind of people who treasure being sentimental? This gift is actually the kind they will truly treasure, which allows you both to create a treasured keepsake of your relationship through the years. Get it from Uncommon Goods for $40.00.

For The Grandparent That Loves Their Grandkids Voice

Does your grandparent always say their favorite thing in the world is to hear you laugh and talk? How about giving them the sound of your voice for christmas--on a piece of tecnology that they'll love? Try the Vinylgram recorded message for $19.79 from VNYL. You record a message for your loved ones, which they can play on a translucent 7" vinyl that can play on all record players.

For The Grandparent Who Needs A Hand With Chores

Chores are not fun at any age, but it can be especially difficult when loved ones get older. Make it easier for your grandparents to do any cleaning they need to do done with an iRobot Roomba vacuum. At $299.99 it's a gift that runs expensive, but is worth it to save them the hassle.

For The Family Chef

Let's face it, everyone has tried, but no one can beat Grandma's recipe for apple pie or recreate Grandpa's secret barbeque sauce recipe. However, that recipe will stay forever sacred and within the family (as will many others), with this special cookbook, available for $35.00 on UnCommon Goods.

For The Grandparent Who Loves To Reminisce About The "Good Old Days"

If there's a special place from your grandparents' pasts that they love to reminisce about, whether it be where they met, where they grew up, or even where they started and raised their family together, then this amazing gift from L.L. Bean is the perfect thing for them. The My Hometown Map Puzzle II for $44.95 is easy—just provide an address, and L.L. Bean recreates a custom high-quality map of that address and the surrounding area, then sends it in the form of 400 puzzle pieces. Not only will grandma and grandpa get to relive that special place in their hearts and memories, but they'll also get to relive the surrounding area as they put the pieces together.

For The Grandparent Who Appreciates A Good Laugh

Sometimes, getting to poke fun at our grandparents is the way to go, and if your grandparents are the type who enjoy a good gag gift then, "My Social Media For Seniors" by Michael Miller will be the ideal gift. Just be aware, they may turn the joke back around on you, read it, learn all the ins and outs of social media and become experts—and then you'll never have online privacy again.
