Checking off the shopping list for holiday gift-giving often ends with a quandary as to what to get your favorite senior. Consider some of these thoughtful, personal, and helpful gifts that may add to your older adult’s quality of life and maybe a smile.
- Custom photo blanket – Keep your older adult warm and cozy with familiar faces all around. These photo blankets are especially nice for people with Alzheimer’s or dementia.

An Amazon Alexa will help your senior stay connected and gives the opportunity to play interactive games like Jeopardy and interact with the Alexa feature to find out information like the weather for that day.
