How do you even begin to show all your love and appreciation for the woman who started it all? We’re speaking, of course, about the grandmas. Whether you call her Mimi, Gigi, Nana, Nonna, or Abuelita, getting a Mother’s Day gift for Grandma lavishes her with the love and attention she deserves all year round... and, of course, really nice presents. Because if anyone deserves to be seen for her unique personality and style, it’s her. We’ve gathered a diverse list of Mother’s Day gifts for Grandma, because, cards on the table, we know you might need help. That’s not on you, either: She’s already gotten a lot of Mother’s Day gifts over the years and you could use some inspiration.

We’ve found Mother's Day gifts for Grandma that run the Nana gamut, from sentimental tokens that will remind her of her favorite people (her grandbabies — like your actual kids, but better) to jewelry (much of which will also remind her of her grandkids, because that’s clearly what she wants) to home decor (that, again, say it with me, will remind her of her grandkids), and more. She’s a special lady, after all. And while one Mother’s Day gift won’t be enough to convey just how much you love and appreciate her, it’s certainly a start.

Grandmother’s Journal: Memories and Keepsakes for My Grandchild

This prompted keepsake journal is a thoughtful present and a great way for Grandma to document her experiences, life lessons, family traditions, and memorable moments for future generations to enjoy. There’s even a pocket in the back to stash photos and memorabilia.

Graham Court 3-Wick Ceramic Jar Candle

Not only does this candle smell like absolute heaven, when the candle burns out, it becomes a gorgeous jar that Grandma can repurpose for everything from candy to cotton swabs.

Flower Subscription Gift Box for Grandmothers

This flower subscription service is a thoughtful gift that keeps on giving! Choose from a variety of uniquely stunning collections, and blow her away with fresh blooms every week or month. Or you can gift Grandma a single bouquet for Mother’s Day, too.

Eau de Parfum Viaggio Travel Fragrance Set at Nordstrom

Grandmas want to smell memorable, and Tocca definitely does that. This discovery set gets her three different sample-size bottles she can choose from. The bottles and box also look beautiful on the shelf.

Happiness Is Being A Grandma T-Shirt

There are few populations more likely to tell you what they’re feeling via a T-shirt than grandmas, so we think this one is perfect. My grandmother always said that she was never happier than when she was surrounded by her grandchildren, and based on how she acted around us I believe her. Available in a variety of colors.

Tree of Life Stained Glass Sun-Catcher

A potent symbol throughout cultures and religions, the Tree of Life represents unity, connection, family, and the life cycle. This lovely stained glass depiction, which shows the tree of life amid the four seasons, is the perfect decoration to catch the light and bring color into Grandma’s home (even when you're not there to flash her your even brighter winning smile — we all know you’re the favorite).

Custom Canvas Print

I’m a big fan of custom prints, but it’s always difficult to know which online shops can reliably deliver a clear, well-done picture.

Canvas Champ is hands-down my favorite. Customize canvas size, orientation, and more for the perfect picture for the perfect spot in Grandma's house. Might I suggest a group picture of all the grandchildren? You can’t go wrong with that.

Bird Nest Wind Chime

This charming wind chime depicts a mama bird and baby birds in her nest (already a perfect Mother’s Day gift for Grandma), and whether she hangs it on her porch or in her garden, she’ll think of you any time she hears the gentle ringing of the 12 bells.

Cheeky Grandma Tote

Here’s the thing about moms, whether or not they’re grandmas: We’re the ones with a huge bag carrying everyone’s stuff. This bag puts a little humor on our unavoidable destiny. It’s also customizable, so whether she’s Mimi, Nana, Gigi, or Oma, she will carry snacks, toys, or whatever the grandbabies need for a day out.

2-Pocket Throw Pillow

If Grandma is constantly losing the most basic necessities, even while sitting on the couch, this is the (practical!) gag gift for her. It’s a three-in-one: comfy pillow plus remote control holder plus a place for her glasses... though we’re guessing she’ll still “lose” those on top of her head or around her neck.

Ceramic Tea Set

Some of my favorite memories with my mom and grandma have been where we’re all sitting together over a nice cup of tea, and it was always especially nice when we made a thing of it with nice china and teapot. This beautiful set stacks nicely and is perfect for a cozy tea for two.

Deep Tissue Massage Gun

Grandma Life is not for the weak. Sometimes, in all that playing and spoiling grandkids, a lady can develop sore calves, a bad shoulder, or an achy back. This powerful (and we do mean powerful) massage gun can help her feel her best, with many different attachments and sensitive speed and pressure controls.

Fountain Pen Set

Look: Grandma may never be able to get her phone or computer to work, but we’re willing to bet she has prettier handwriting than everybody under 70 in your family combined. This fountain pen, made from bamboo, comes in a lovely gift box and makes writing anything down feel just a little more elegant.

Custom Birth Month Flower Sweatshirt

This customizable sweatshirt is perfect for two reasons: One, if Grandma is always cold (mine is), this will be her new favorite pullover. Why? That brings us to two, which is the fact that it can be customized with her grandkid’s names and birth flowers. Truly there’s no better garden than one full of her favorite people.

Funny Grandchild Mug

Look, she can swear up, down, and sideways that she doesn’t have a favorite grandchild and that you’re all her favorite in your own special ways, but you know the truth — and now, with this mug, so will she. Honestly, it was about time you made it official.

Charcuterie Board Gift Set

I never understood when people started calling charcuterie boards “trendy.” How can it be trendy when it’s always been good and beloved? Your hostess-inclined grandma will love this set of two boards, including one that expands to fit loads of treats and stores an assortment of cheese knives and accouterment underneath. Perfect for a Mother’s Day brunch.

Grandma Apron

I’m sure many of us have fond memories of baking and cooking with our grandmas who were experts in the culinary arts despite never having studied. Of course, some grandmas manage to burn water. This gift isn’t for them. But it’s perfect for the ones who love letting grandkids lick the spatula.

Grandma & Grandpa's House Doormat

We’re sure your grandma welcomes many people into her home... but let’s be honest: Of everyone who can walk through that door, her favorites call her Grandma. This is a sweet Mother’s Day gift for Grandma that lets everyone know where her priorities lie before they even cross the threshold.

Cotton Jersey Pajams

Grandma’s been around for a while now; she deserves to spend as much time as possible in utmost comfort. We love these pajamas, which are perfect for those days when all you want to do is lounge around the house. And if that also happens to be an evening when the grandkids are sleeping over? Even better!

Baby Hand and Footprint Kit

We love this adorable memento as a Mother’s Day gift for Grandma because it’s both a sweet decoration and a really cute activity to do on Mother’s Day. It has everything you need to cast tiny little hand and/or footprints for her wall. All you’ll need to provide are the pictures and the baby.

Mother’s Ring

A mother’s ring is one of those gifts we always mean to get for the moms in our lives but always seem to forget until it’s too late to customize. This is your year! Choose from 10-karat gold or silver and up to seven birthstones for kids and/or grandkids. She’ll love the daily reminder of her family on her finger.

Grandma’s Brag Board Gift

It’s no secret that grandmas love to brag, so let her do it all year long with this cute board. The sign is made of wood and comes complete with clips to hold six different photos.

Grandma Gift Box

This gift box is a great Mother’s Day gift for the grandma who likes getting lots of little treasures. The box includes a card, mug, dishtowel, and keychain that remind her she’s the “Best Grandma Ever,” as well as cozy socks and a couple of bath bombs (just because). For even more options, there are other great Mother’s Day gifts on Amazon you can pick from.

Our Family Recipes Journal

Your family’s matriarch and master chef is essentially a walking cookbook, but if you ask Mimi for literally any recipe, her response probably involves measurements like a “smidge of this” and a “handful of that.”

Help her pen out all of her favorite recipes (and yours, too!), so together you can ensure that her famous lasagna stays in the family for generations.

Harper Crossbody Bag

For those occasions when Gran doesn’t want to lug the kitchen sink around town, this compact crossbody bag will help streamline her essentials.

Inside, RFID-protected card slots will keep credit cards organized, and a separate compartment offers enough room for her phone, keys, and maybe even a lipstick or two.

Adults & Crafts Subscription Box

The perfect Mother’s Day gift for crafty grandmas, this monthly subscription box will come with everything she needs to make a variety of crafts, from wine caddies, epoxy resin, candles, and more. Making them is half the fun, but displaying them is the other half! Get one for yourself and make it a family affair.

Extra Large Beach Bag

If Grandma frequently takes beach trips with the family, then gift her one of our favorite beach bags. This roomy, water-resistant bag holds towels, snacks, chair umbrellas, and any other fun extras that she’ll need to take with her for a day outdoors.

'Worlds Best Abuela' Coffee Mug for Grandmother

This 11-ounce “World’s Best Abuela” mug is both microwave- and dishwasher-safe, and the cute design is featured on both sides. She’ll love thinking of you every time she pours her morning coffee.

Always Pan

The Always Pan is an excellent Mother’s Day gift idea for your grandma. This Pan offers so many things at once, which might please grandmas that love to consolidate clutter in their kitchen.

It consists of a nonstick fry pan, a sauté pan, skillet, steamer, a spatula, and spoon rest all in one product, and we can confirm it lives up to the hype.

Tasman Slippers

These slippers are a perfect pick for your grandma’s next house shoe, especially because they offer traction, warmth, and support. We love the grippy soles to keep her from slipping, and the embroidered edge that ensures they will stay on and keep her feet warm.

Gardening Kneeler & Bench Gift for Horticulturist Grandmothers

If grandma’s garden is her happy place, then this incredible tool is a must-have. It can be used either as a cushion to spare her knees while working or as a comfortable bench seat while tending to her plants or simply enjoying the space.

Digital Picture Frame Gift for Grandmothers

An ideal gift for grandmas who’ve run out of space to hang pictures on walls, this digital frame has unlimited storage (no, really; it’s cloud-based). Easily send photos directly to the frame from anywhere on the free Aura app and Grammy will get a never-ending slideshow of her favorite folks.

Reading Pillow Mother's Day Gift for Grandmothers

Why is it that we put a man on the moon but still don’t have a comfortable position to read in… until now? This cozy but firm reading pillow is the perfect gift for grandmas who love to cuddle up with a good book.

Record Player Mother's Day Gift for Grandmas

Gift her the record player that reminds her of her youth. It’s the perfect Mother’s Day gift for the grandma who kept all her vinyls because she had a hunch they’d be making a comeback.

Blue Light Glasses Gift for Grandmothers

Upgrad her specs with these stylish reading glasses that are Oprah-approved. Their lenses feature a blue-light-filtering design, so they’ll keep her peepers protected while she’s staring at a screen.

A great gift for grandmas who love a little bit of adventure, this fanny pack lets everyone know she’d rather be out and about! It's perfect for stashing her essentials, and she’ll love that every piece from Cotopaxi is one-of-a-kind, made from 100% remnant fabric.
