1. Orastone Rechargeable Hand Warmer

This clever device will keep your hands toasty for three to four hours on a full charge. If your hands are warm, no matter what the temperature, you’re all set. Perfect for sitting on the sidelines at those cold soccer games. 

2. AirPod Pro (2nd Gen)

Once you use AirPods you will never know how you lived without them. Perfect for listening to podcasts or talking to friends and family while we take care of all the things that need to be done. With noise-cancellation, they can truly help you find your “me time.” Now, AirPod Pros have a 2nd generation out – time for an upgrade?

3. AirPod Case and Lanyard

Protect AirPods with this affordable case that includes a lanyard for keeping them draped around your neck when not in use.

4. Milk Frother

Buying a latte or cappuccino every day gets pretty expensive and there are days when you don’t have time to run into Starbucks, even if you wanted to. This is really a money and time-saving gift!

5. Aura digital frame

The family group chat is a great way to keep in touch, but here is another idea we LOVE. Have your college students or young adults send you photos from their phones, straight to a photo frame in your office, kitchen, or family room.

Photos of events at college, scenes that move them and they want to share, goofy moments that we parents so appreciate.

6. Jenni Kayne 

Jenni Kayne’s sweaters will 100% become the staple of your wardrobe. A pair of jeans with one of these comfy sweaters and you are set for your daily activities and going out at night.

7. Vuori

If you haven’t discovered Vuori yet-it’s time you do. Their clothes are the definition of comfortable. The joggers are available in many pretty colors and you will never want to take them off.

8. Lululemon

The yoga pants at Lululemon may be at the top of our daughters’ lists, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be on ours, too. Plus there are great jackets and accessories that we would love to receive, too.

9. Heated lavender pillow

Pop this into the microwave for 1-2 minutes and treat yourself to a soothing spa-like experience as the scent of lavender is released while the pillow soothes all the muscles around your neck. Next time your teens are driving you crazy, do this to help you de-stress.

10. La Chatelaine Hand Cream Set

Lucious smells, great hand cream and beautiful gift packaging make this set of hand creams a lovely gift for a mom. With the cold winter months in many parts of the country and frequent hand washings, this is a very practical gift, too.

11. Humor Everyday Coffee Mug

You have to have a sense of humor when you’re the mom of a teen! We think these cute mugs pretty much sum up our feelings about this stage of life. This will help you start your day with a smile.

12. YETI wine tumblers

Give a mom this special wine tumbler and she will never want to use any other wine glass. Wine keeps chilled in this shatterproof mug. Available in many colors and add a monogram to make it truly hers.

13. Phone and AirPods Charger

One thing that our teens seem to “borrow” and never return is our phone chargers. Give her this innovative platform that will quickly charge her phone and new AirPod Pros at the same time.

14. Bearaby’s Cotton Napper

Mom, you’re going to love Bearaby’s Cotton Napper this uber-popular napping weighted blanket. It’s not only smart looking, it’s so, so comfy and can help you slip away from the holiday hoopla and get some restorative sleep.

15. MZ Wallace

It’s unusual to find a sale on MZ Wallace because it’s such a well-made, useful bag. You can literally throw anything in there and it’s easy to carry and great looking to boot.

16. Togetherness

But really, truly when it all comes down to it, the one thing we want most, is everyone in our family gathered around the kitchen table (happy and healthy, of course) in our very own homes laughing, talking without one single phone in sight.
