Finding the best gifts for parents can be a challenge, but there’s the truth: the greatest gift you can give them is time spent together, or something that shows you’re thinking of them, even if you live far away. Whether you’re shopping for your mom and dad or your discerning mother-in-law, great gifts run the gamut from tech that fosters quality time (think: a new bluetooth projector for monthly movie nights) and sentimental things that’ll remind them of you, like our top pick, the Aura Carver digital picture frame, which you can give pre-loaded with pics of their grandkids. You also can’t go wrong with a personalized cutting board with the family name if they still love to cook for you. In the market for a present for parents who have everything? The “Tell Me Your Life Story” journal shines as a perfect under $15 option that’ll help you make (and preserve) memories which, after all, is the gift that keeps on giving.

Our Place Perfect Pot
“As a parent, I know how challenging meal time can be, especially when you’re multitasking, which parents are always doing. One-pot cooking makes dinner a whole lot easier, and the Perfect Pot from Our Place makes things a lot simpler. It’s very versatile—I love using the steamer so I can have al dente veggies and leave them in longer for kiddos who enjoy things a bit mushier. I would be stoked to give or receive this,” says Andrew Brady, chef and co-owner of Dear Annie + Field & Vine.
