Holiday Gift Ideas For Mom & Dad – 2021 Edition

Gift Ideas For Mom & Dad

This time of year can be crazy and rather stressful. Let’s take the stress out of some of your shopping with our 2021 Gift Ideas for Mom & Dad. Below you’ll find but just a tiny selection of some of our favorite tech for mom and dad. Obviously this can work for grandparents, aunts, and uncles as well 😊.

Worth a note, these are in no specific order.

Ember Mug²

The Ember Mug is simply put, wonderful. It’s essentially an app controlled hot plate but built into the mug itself. Setup your favorite kinds of hot drinks and when you pour them you select what drink you are having and it keeps it at that temp. It’s also nice, it tracks caffeine intake in your Health App as well.

$99

Ember Travel Mug²

Much like the Ember Mug above, but on the go! Nice long battery life (around 3 hours). If this is used to keep that coffee or tea hot on the way to work, that’s all you need!

$179

Apple HomePod Mini

The super powerful Apple HomePod Mini, and it now comes in a bunch of fun colors! This is a great little gift to bring Apple’s great music quality into the home while also being perhaps the first device to start the journey into a smart home (the HomePod can act as your hub).

$99

The Pocket Tripod

This item has become a must for our everyday carry. It’s lightweight and easy to keep in a wallet or purse. Holds the phone well and allows for a variety of viewing angles and uses.

$45

Philips Hue Go

These Philips Hue Go lights are just fun to have around. We use ours in our daughters room as a night light, but because it’s portable we can move it around and it can be used throughout the home (even outside on the patio). This can tie to the hue hub and be used with a smart home setup!

Nikon Z Series Camera – Z50, Z6ii, or Z7ii

Nikon’s Z Series are a bit of an investment but boy oh boy do they produce wonderful photographs and videos. They are lightweight and smaller than traditional DSLR cameras. They go in order of features: Z50 more of an intro/starter setup. Z6ii for the intermediate to semi-pro photographer and Z7ii for the person in the family that is known for their photography skills.

$995 – Z50 Kit

$2596 – Z6ii Kit

$3100 – Z7ii Kit


You truly can’t go wrong with any one of the above items, but if you are looking for more ideas here’s a quick list of items to take a look at.
