60 Thoughtful Gifts for the Grandma Who Says She Has Everything

Because she deserves the very best.

best gifts for grandma

Fact: Everyone thinks their grandmother is the best grandma of all grandmas. With her cooking, relationship advice, inspirational gems, and ability to never run out of fun things to do, she's the person who nearly outshines everyone else.

And while we can't all agree on who deserves the #1 nana spot, we can reach one consensus: When it comes to presents, she deserves the very best—even if she claims she already has everything. Which is exactly why we’ve found the most thoughtful gifts any grandson or granddaughter can give, including a few things every grandma needs (think: practical presents, like fluffy slippers, gorgeously scented candles, and a cute container for her homemade cookies) and many items every grandmother will want, such as a cozy throw blanket, a luxurious spa-worthy bath caddy, a pair of pretty gardening gloves, and a book that’s perfect for new grandmas. Plus, because you can never go wrong with a personalized present, we've got several special gifts that can be customized with her name or names of loved ones (like grandkids), including delightful art and keepsake jewelry.

Ahead, we've compiled a list of the best gifts for grandma—including some last-minute gift ideas for perpetual procrastinators, some "just because" trinkets to send, and a handful of Oprah-approved picks—so all you have to do is add a sweet card.

Nothing beats the appeal of comfy loungewear. "I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I love anything that feels like a second skin," Oprah proclaimed when she felt this jersey set. "They work for work or the weekend, which is good, because with their next-level softness, they’re hard to take off." Treat grandma to a pair and let her experience the coziness for herself.
