.If your senior is moving soon or in the future, you might be trying to find a valuable welcome gift they will appreciate. Since moving might be stressful, gifts are great ways to brighten their mood or reassure them that they are loved. Here are some sentimental and practical ideas to warm up their home:
- If your loved one enjoys a challenge, puzzles make great gifts, especially personalized ones. It could even be a picture of a fond memory from their old residence! Find options here.
- For readers, a magazine or book subscription can entertain and inspire your loved one. They might be interested in AARP, Reader’s Digest, Prevention, or Woman’s Day. Additionally, Big Reads is a subscription service that delivers large-print books monthly. You choose the genre; they choose the book and ship it. You can also send your seniors an included, personalized note with each package!
- Additionally, a comforting gift is a chair cushion or an infrared foot massager. These items are the next best thing to a massage, and your senior will love them when they’re in the mood for self-care and relaxation.
- Another physically satisfying item is acupressure accessories that offer relief if they are affected by chronic pain. For example, the Aculief hand clip may be a good option if they have migraines or headaches. An acupressure relief mat may assist if they want to target their back!
- An organizational gift can say welcome home as well. Daily planners or wall calendars make unique gifts so your senior can create plans, work toward achieving them, and follow a daily routine. When they write down their appointments and goals, they will have something to look forward to and are less likely to forget.
- If you are trying to take your senior’s mind off moving for a while, gifting them tickets to a musical or local event they would enjoy also supports their move. Although they cannot hang it on their wall, they will cherish the memory forever!
