Top Gift Ideas for Moms in Quarantine

The world may be in the middle of a pandemic, but it’s not enough reason to overlook important family milestones such as birthdays and other special occasions. Gift giving is essential in showing how much you care for your loved ones, especially your mom. And despite the challenges of the current circumstances, there’s plenty of excellent gift ideas to choose from. So if your mom is about to celebrate a birthday, here’s our list of the top gift ideas for this year.

A phone sanitizer

Gadgets are considered one of the dirtiest personal possessions we have. And since there’s a virus out there, we need to be extra careful in making sure that our belongings are always sanitized. UV sanitizers are quite popular today, which most people use to kill germs and viruses on almost every surface. There’s one specifically designed for phones. It’s also the right size for disinfecting credit cards, keys, and other small items.

Custom jewelry

Before we move on to other sleek and trendy items, let’s not forget something classy and timeless. A piece of custom jewelry will never disappoint. If your mom is fashion-forward, a trendy custom name necklace is an excellent addition to her accessory collection. Another option would be a vintage locket with a memorable photo inside. Personalized jewelry is always a great gift idea because it will last a long time and will show your care and attention to detail.

Meal delivery and subscription boxes

Now is the best time to gift your mom a meal-delivery kit subscription. Since older people are more vulnerable to sickness, you’ll want to encourage your parents to stay at home as much as possible. Meal delivery will ensure that they get to eat a well-balanced and nutritious meal with minimal prep hassle required. Another advantage of meal kits is that you can choose from a variety of menu selections that are suitable even for people with dietary restrictions.

Subscription boxes make it so easy with automated shipping. In our busy lives, a subscription box for women over 50 is a great gift that keeps on giving!

A DNA test kit

Now that we are spending more time indoors, even our moms will need a new hobby to pass the time. A DNA test kit is perfect if she’s interested in discovering her heritage and building a family tree. This gift will also benefit the younger generation since she can get her grandchildren involved in tracing ancestors and long-lost family members.

A DIY gardening kit

Another excellent gift for moms who are in quarantine is a gardening kit. For beginners, you can start with a kit with flowers or vegetables that are easy to grow at home. For advanced gardeners, you can experiment with a mix of seeds that your mom may not have tried growing before.

A smart mug

A smart mug that you can control the temperature is just the right gift to give to your mom. Who doesn’t want the option of sipping a beverage at a consistent temperature all day or for at least an hour? It’s great when you’re lounging at home watching TV or reading a good book. The mug comes with a wireless coaster-shaped charger that’s sleek and convenient to use.
