Finding appropriate gifts for the elderly can be difficult at times. After all, many seniors have specific tastes or have more things than they know what to do with. How do you find a gift that they'll like? It can be even more difficult if they insist on not needing anything (as many elderly people do when they don't want to be a burden).
However, there are numerous ways to make them feel special. Many seniors value practicality and functionality in their gifts. (And sentimentality still plays a role in gifts for parents and grandparents.) You can put a smile on their faces if you can think of something that will make their lives easier, healthier, or more enjoyable.
This book contains many thoughtful ideas for older men and women, elderly parents and grandparents, and even those difficult-to-buy-for people who have everything. It also includes dozens of suggestions for older adults dealing with various health challenges or conditions, as well as some enjoyable fitness and health-promoting activities.
