The 61 Best Gifts for Grandpa, From the Sentimental to the Practical

For the grandpa who loves becoming an expert in everything and anything, there’s Masterclass. The star-studded lecture series has been offering a variety of courses taught by successful athletes, actors, scientists, mixologists and more since 2015. Each course is divided into 12 to 20 ten-minute long sessions and covers a variety of topics as the instructor moves through the lessons. Whether your pops wants to learn acting skills from Natalie Portman or take a beginner cooking lesson from famous chef Gordon Ramsay, the gift of a membership (which is billed annually) means they can take unlimited classes from the company’s robust catalog of 180+ videos. (After trying it firsthand, I can attest: Masterclass is totally Masterclass is totally worth it.)

If grandpa's always the one taking control of the menu for family dinners, pick him up this beloved crunchy chili sauce from Fly by Jing that he'll want to put on *everything.* One shopper says, "This chili crisp has quickly become a staple in our home—we seriously put it on just about everything: from popcorn to dumplings, fry dip to pizza, eggs to burritos, etc." So, yeah, it might be worth picking up a second jar for yourself, too.

Maybe he's always been a world traveler, or perhaps he plans on soon becoming one, as he's now officially retired. Whatever the case may be, any traveling grandpa will certainly appreciate a small journal where he can document all of his jet-setting adventures and memorable experiences along the way. This is a neat gift that everybody in the family can get in on.

An Apple AirTag (or better yet, this four-pack) will help Grandpa keep better track of his keys, phone or anything else he misplaces on the regular. This small device uses ultra-wideband technology to help you locate whatever it's attached to using the 'Find My' network on compatible Apple devices. There’s a simple one-tap setup that’ll pair and connect your devices with the AirTag, and if gramps happens to lose his wallet, all he’ll have to do is put the AirTag into Lost mode to receive notifications on its location in the Find My application. Plus, there’s a built-in speaker that’ll play a loud sound to help him track it down.

Grandpa can’t always be there to witness the special moments, but thanks to the Aura Frames smart digital photo frame, he’ll get to experience the priceless memories you capture. The smart frame lets family and friends upload photos and videos to the Aura app before gifting, so when he unboxes his special gift and plugs it in, he’ll be surprised to see a flood of personal images and videos. And if gramps isn’t the most tech savvy man on the planet, you can preset the WiFi ahead of time; his only job will be to plug it in. The frame will come packaged in the company’s premium gift box, and there’s a place in the app to add a video message or photo with a personal note that he'll see as soon as he turns it on. And as long as you have the app downloaded to your phone, you can continue uploading new images to his picture frame.

Do you practically *never* see grandpa without a cup of coffee in-hand? Then take this as your sign upgrade his sipping experience with this insulated pour-over mug from BrüMate. The mug can keep hot beverages warm for up to six hours, or cold beverages chilled for up to 24 if he's an iced coffee fan. But the real standout of this design is the locking lid, so he can take it everywhere with him without worrying about spills—take it from me, I regularly throw my BrüMate cups in my beach bag (alongside my Kindle, phone and wallet) and haven't had any issues.

Like clockwork, your grandpa meets his buddies at the pickleball courts for a little rally and competitive doubles match, and this pickleball set will take his game to the next level. Grandpa will receive two rackets made of a high-quality fiberglass and polypropylene-honeycomb composition, one travel-friendly sports bag and four balls...because you can never be too prepared. They’re designed to feel more lightweight compared to most other paddles, and they feature a sweat absorbent and cushioned grip that won’t irritate Gramps’ hands easily when he’s hitting those spikes and returning those volleys.

Chilly feet will be a thing of the past once you gift grandpa these beloved shearling-lined slippers from L.L.Bean. They've racked up more then 6,000 5-star reviews, so you know they're good, but if you need more convincing, just see what this happy reviewer wrote: "These are wonderful slippers and a value for the price. I love the lining and the sole is perfectly balance for flexibility and comfort on all surfaces." What's not to love?

So really, you'll be taking his shoe game up a notch and giving him another reason to look forward to his next neighborhood stroll.

This is Theragun’s smallest and lightest device yet, and it can help ease everything from a chronically sore lower back to an aching knee.

The gift also includes a soft, protective case and a USB-A to USB-C charging cable.

If he spends all his time in the backyard, fishing, hiking or camping, he needs this Yeti cooler in his life.

It’s 100 percent leakproof, durable and comes with a shoulder strap that makes it easier to carry when his hands are full. “I've owned a ton of coolers in my years in the field, and this one just kills it," one buyer says. "My dad always told me to buy the best quality you can afford, if you can afford it. These coolers will reward you with the performance the price commands.”

All the fried foods he loves, now prepped in an easier and healthier way—this puppy bakes and broils, air-fries, toasts, warms and has a setting specifically for pizza. The compact proportions (15.5 inches wide by 12.5 inches deep) and manageable heft (15 pounds) of this Cuisinart air fryer toaster oven make it countertop-friendly, and reviewers appreciate that there are built-in bumps and wings that ensure the vents won’t sit too close to the wall or other objects. Plus, the automatic shutoff will come in handy the next time he forgets to turn it off after making his famous buffalo wings.

If the grandkids are always looking to grandpa to sneak them a sweet treat, he's sure to love this personalized "grandpa's ice cream spoon." You can customize the spoon's size and the engraved symbol at the bottom, and if you really want to complete his gifts, have the kids pick out their favorite flavors from a local shop to go with it.

If your grandpa goes from the bed to the kitchen and sofa, then he'll appreciate this robe. It's made of 100 percent Turkish cotton, so it's incredibly cozy, and it has two front pockets for him to put his glasses (because he's constantly losing them) and his phone. And he’ll like that he can toss it in the washing machine without having to worry about shrinking it or ruining the plush fabric. All that’s left to decide is which colorway he’ll prefer: a dusky blue, moss green, stone grey…

If your grandfather has the greenest thumb in the family, this indoor hydroponic garden will give him some seedlings to look after—without risking the backache that comes with outdoor pruning. It includes a growing starter kit complete with necessities like plant food, seeds and grow sponges, plus a detachable LED grow light system and power adapter. The light system also has an automated timer, so he won't have to remember to turn it on each morning, and there's room for up to six plants on the grow deck. He’s going to love adding fresh basil to his famous tomato sauce.

Be it cornhole, tennis, ping pong, pickleball—Robert DeNiro in Meet the Parents has nothing on your Gramps's competitive spirit. This portable game won us over for how easy it is to set up—and how quickly everyone gets into the game. Teams of two to four people try to bump, set and smash the ball onto the court, so it bounces over the net and past their opponents' paddles. “My family and friends have really enjoyed this game and been playing a lot ever since we got it,” says one Amazon reviewer. “It’s pickleball meets spikeball, but a good combination. Loads of fun for everyone!”

Whether you want it engraved with his initials or a personal message from the grandkids, this wallet is a gift he's sure to use daily. Its center compartment, which has elastic on each side, can accommodate all of his cards, and there's a money clip at the back for easy access to cash—what more could he want?

It's no secret that many wines taste better cold, and, by chilling the glass from the bottom, these innovative coasters will spare your grandpa from having to drop in a few ice cubes. The reclaimed granite base is also pretty sleek, earning him a few style points. It’s encouraged to store the set in the freezer when you’re not using it to lock in the temperature-maintaining powers, and when he’s ready to enjoy a glass of vino, he can place the cold stone into the stemless glass that comes with the purchase before pouring his first glass. Oh, and Grandma won’t lose her marbles because there won’t be any condensation rings left on her antique table.

If he’s never had a treat from Milk Bar, now’s the time to introduce him to this NYC-famous bakery. This gift set features two dozen truffles and an assorted cookie tin for the perfect starter pack, and best of all? You can schedule his gift order up to 30 days in advance and write a personalized gift note that’ll be just as sweet as the desserts inside.

With age comes class, which is why you should bless your grandpa with these sophisticated shoes. Their intricately handwoven construction will be highly appreciated by a gramps with a fashion sense, and they slip on and off with ease, no bending down required. Their shock-absorbing and non-slip soles will also help with comfortable and safe steps. As one reviewer assures us, the “Huaraches are made with the utmost care and attention to detail, all at a stunningly affordable price. The fit is perfect and will slowly mold to my feet. These are timeless classics that can be dressed up or down.”

If he can’t get himself out for weekly massages, this highly-rated back and neck massager is almost as good, promising to melt away tension and soothe sore muscles. He'll simply wrap it around his neck and the shiatsu massager will go to town, kneading, rolling and applying just the right amount of pressure. Plus, it’s travel-friendly, so he can take it with him on his road trips.

Speaking of road trips, whether he loves to drive for a weekend getaway or hop on a flight to catch some warm weather, he'll love packing with this Monos duffel that has *so many* impressive organization features. For starters, it's designed with a built-in laptop sleeve that fits up to a 15-inch laptop, removable Metro Kit pouch and tons of inner and side pockets. Plus, it has a removable, padded long strap and a built-in trolley sleeve so he can stack it on top of his go-to roller if he's heading on a longer trip. Trust me, this is one gift he'll continue thanking you for every time he uses it.

Has Grandpa been hinting that he's interested in "experimenting" outside of his beloved Folgers? Help him discover roasts that he wouldn’t be able to find in stores with this monthly subscription service that sends gourmet blends from ethically sourced farms in Costa Rica, Kenya, Ethiopia and beyond. He’ll even receive a postcard from each country of origin that features tasting notes and the coffee’s history. There are three gift subscriptions to choose from (the Starter Pack, Standard and Coffee Lover), which can be sent straight to his door at various frequencies and range in price from $60 to $199. Think of it as a way his new way to travel without leaving the breakfast table.

Before he gets to the grill, your grandad’s going to want to concoct a fancy rub for that steak. Treat him to a nine-piece set of these high-quality spices—from ground laurel bay leaves to smoked pimentón paprika to purple stripe garlic—and watch him go wild. “I have been cooking for over 50 years and can honestly say that these spices are amazing. I love the easy-to-use jars and grinders they come in. I recently joined the spice club and was overjoyed with my first box," one reviewer says.

This one’s for the fit (or wannabe fit) grandpa on the block. Even if he's not too tech-savvy, the Apple Watch is pretty intuitive, and before long, he'll go from answering texts to tracking his heart rate (and getting alerts when it’s unusually high or low) to setting sleep goals. “Being a tech enthusiast and someone deeply involved in the IT sector, I appreciate the crash detection and heart rate monitoring functions. Safety is paramount, and the watch's ability to detect a potential fall and initiate an emergency call is a reassuring feature," one reviewer says. "The heart rate monitor keeps me informed about my cardiovascular health during workouts and daily activities." About that crash-and-fall About that crash-and-fall detection feature? It will automatically send a message with your grandpa’s location to his emergency contacts to inform them that he’s been in a serious accident and connect him to emergency services for help.

Gift granddad with a cozy sweater he can wear on top of anything, or bring in the car in case he's headed somewhere with that dreaded too-high air conditioning.

Oh yeah, did I mention you can snag it for just $60? This one's a win for him *and* your wallet.

In this fascinating book, subtitled Cracking the Longevity Code for a Younger Tomorrow, bestselling author Dr. Michael F. Roizen of the Cleveland Clinic joins with two acclaimed economists to examine why human life expectancy has doubled in the last 100 years and how it will change people's bodies, brains and bank accounts. This optimistic book predicts living past 130 will become increasingly common, and includes an action plan for physical and mental wellness in addition to economic health.

Your resident birdwatcher may have a nice pair of binoculars already, but sometimes a scope, which typically has a greater magnification, is best for spotting shorebirds on a distant shore or hawks circling high above. This one has 12 times magnification and 55-millimeter objective lens, or, in lay man’s terms, some of the best high-powered magnification for distance watching. And if Grandpa is experiencing irritating light reflection on his current pair, then this monocular telescope will do him good because it contains an 18-millimeter BAK-4 optics prism and fully multi-coating lens that’ll deliver the sharpest and clearest picture without any interference in light transmittance. Did we mention that it’s waterproof, dust-proof, shockproof and fog-proof? That’s right, your grandfather can carry this on him during his next hunting and fishing trips, rain or shine.

If dear old Gramps is still using the same grill he bought in 1988, give him the gift of an upgrade. “After grilling on a gas Weber for the last five years, I decided I wanted to try a charcoal kettle grill,” admits one customer. “Everyone I know swears by their Weber kettle, so I bought this and a premium kettle in the last week—both are fantastic...I’m new to charcoal but it’s been easy to control the temperature.” This classic charcoal option has a large cooking surface for both direct and indirect heat, and a one-touch cleaning system for easy mess removal, post-feast. Gramps’s friends will be impressed by the sleek look of the porcelain-enameled lid and bowl, and he won’t have to fuss over its upkeep and protection when it rains because the legs are made from a rust-resistant aluminum. Now that’s what I call happy grilling.

He’ll be able to let his feet breathe—as well as keep himself upright—thanks to these shoes’ rugged rubber high-grip outsole that won’t shirk when he encounters a patch of mud or small stream. These classic hiker’s sandals are lightweight, so they won’t slow him down, and the contoured EVA midsole keeps his arches well supported. As for wearing socks with them…seriously, he's earned the right to whatever fashion statement he likes.

If grandpa likes to keep current on the best new books out there, don't hesitate to pick him up a copy of We Solve Murders, a new mystery out from Richard Osman, author of best-seller The Thursday Murder Club. The story centers around retired Steve Wheeler and his daughter-in-law, Amy, who comes across trouble in paradise and needs Steve's help to solve the case. This book has already racked up tons of reviews singing its praises since its Sept. 17 release, so pops is sure to love getting lost in this detective mystery, too.

If watching the birds isn’t enough, your grandpa can bring them directly to his place with this innovative bird feeder. Easy to assemble, it can mount on his wall or a nearby tree, and can hold the perfect amount of bird food. But the best part about the product is that it's compatible with many outdoor home cameras, allowing your grandpa to appreciate nature and create some wonderful memories, all at under $100. “I have used several products from Wasserstein in the past and was always impressed with their quality, and this bird feeder was no exception. I added one of my spare Ring security cameras in the feeder and started capturing amazing videos the very first day," raves one Amazon reviewer. "I love the setup, and so do our feathered friends."

Grandad is in the market for a new laptop, but he's not sure what, exactly, he wants. Why not gather the kids and splurge collectively on a Surface Laptop? It's a powerful touchscreen computer that's hard to beat. It's thin and lightweight, so he can easily take it to work from his favorite coffee shop, plus the newly added Copilot+ AI capabilities make it easy to retrieve documents and link history, along with translating subtitle in realtime for video calls or streaming and boosted productivity and security. This laptop has it all.

It’s no secret that Spot is his favorite “child,” so you might as well embrace it. Send in a photo of his pet and this Etsy seller will create a hand-painted, 8x10-inch watercolor portrait that Grandpa will want to frame immediately. “I really wanted to get a handmade painting pet portrait for a gift, and I got EXACTLY what I wanted!” one five-star reviewer gushed. It makes for a sweet and sentimental gift that canine-lover will appreciate, especially if it’s of an old dog that holds a dear place in his heart.

Portable and versatile, this ultra-chilly mini fridge will be a great addition to your grandpa’s man cave, no matter how he chooses to decorate it. It also holds plenty of drinks (up to 62 cans) while still managing to be compact in size. It’s made with a stainless-steel frame and has a glass front door that lets him see his beverage stock at a glance. The two chrome frames inside are adjustable and detachable, so he can chill a few larger bottles. “This thing is fantastic,” raves one buyer. “It has tons of adjustable shelves to fit your needs and it maintains your drinks’ [temperature] exceptionally [well]. If you’re seeking out a nice [statement] piece in your bar or game room, this is it.”

Give chef grandpa a thoughtful blender to whip up some of his favorite early morning favorites before heading to the gym. This one is easy to set up, use and clean when you're all finished, making it a personal favorite of mine for quick protein shakes and breakfast smoothies.

Set gramps up with an Audible membership so he can mix in an audiobook—like Malcom Gladwell’s Talking to Strangers or David Sedaris’s The Best of Me—every now and then. You have the option to gift a membership for one month, three months, six months or one year, which range anywhere in price from $15 to $150, and if he already has a membership, you have the option to send him credits to use for more book purchases.

The fan-favorite Always pan recently got an upgrade. The 2.0 pan is designed to replace a traditional ten-piece cooking set for under $150: it braises, sears, strains, sautés, steams, boils, bakes, stores and serves. And while it won’t replace every cooking tool in his kitchen (PureWow’s food editor recommends keeping it in rotation with a cast iron skillet), it’s definitely a great present, if only for the sheer ease of use and storage, plus a simplified clean-up process. One of the most notable upgrades, besides the fact that it’s oven safe up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, is the long-lasting Thermakind ceramic nonstick coating, which is made without harmful PFAS, lead and cadmium materials. Now it’s time to enjoy some of grandpa’s famous golden pancakes.

If gramps likes to stay warm *and* still look totally polished, he'll love getting his hands on this classic jacket from Everlane that has a light fill padding for extra warmth. The jacket's also water-resistant, so he can wear it no matter the weather, and it's conveniently machine washable to get out any stains that might happen when he's wearing it daily.

Crackling bacon on the stovetop, sizzling steak on the grill and braised beef searing in the Dutch oven—it’s all music to your grandpa’s ears. So you can bet your bottom dollar that he’ll be thrilled to receive one of the six Porter Road meat subscription boxes like the Dry Aged Beef Box, Breakfast Box or the Butcher’s Choice Box. Every month, he’ll get a handpicked selection of cuts that are pasture-raised and include seasonal favorites, too. The Butcher’s Choice Box is packed with two premium dry-aged steaks (either ribeyes or strips), two pork chops, two sirloin filets, one pound of pork bacon and one pound of dry-aged ground beef. There’s even an option to customize your delivery schedule and select add-ons, like hot Italian links or chicken bone broth, if you want to beef up his box (pun intended).

If he can’t stop talking about the daily cappuccinos he drank when he vacationed in Italy three years ago, he’ll put a milk frother to good use. This at-home coffee tool works like a charm to whip dairy or non-dairy milks into a creamy, frothy perfection, and it doubles as a heating tool so it can warm up hot cocoa or other beverages that he’ll want to enjoy during the winter months. “This makes the most beautiful foam ever! 1/3 cup becomes a thick rich cup of frothy creamer. Better than any coffee shop! Best purchase we've made in quite a while! We love it!” one buyer says.

He's always wanting to share the new Brit detective drama, classic TV series or sports tournament with you, so splurge on this cult-favorite television, which has a QLED 4K high-res clarity and looks like a picture frame when he's not watching it. All he’ll have to do is switch it to Art Mode and select from hundreds of curated pieces from various collections in the Samsung Art Store to display, from Leonardo da Vinci to Vincent Van Gogh to Lorenzo Lotto.

He'll appreciate this gift of five looseleaf teas in the same variety as those thrown overboard into the Boston Harbor by colonists protesting taxation without representation. He'll also get details on how many chests of each tea were destroyed, brewing directions and flavor profiles, as well as facts about how early Americans enjoyed tea. “I got this for my husband, who loves tea and is a history buff to boot,” says one buyer. “He loved the idea, and the teas are AWESOME—great quality and a range of flavors. The first two are so smoked it almost smelled like smoked meat, but it didn't taste like meat; it was just a smoked, woody tea. The third and fourth vials were much lighter, almost floral, and some of the most delicious smelling teas I've ever smelled. The fifth was solid, but not as unique as the first two or as sweet as the other two." The reviewer estimated that each vial produces about six cups of tea, BTW. 

Does your family do Friday night dinners à la the Gilmore Girls? Then don't waste any time picking up this handy meat thermometer that he's sure to get tons of use out of while he whips up your favorite meals. It's earned nearly 35,000 5-star reviews from Amazon shoppers, and at less than $15, it feels like a no-brainer.

Pop Pop shouldn't be slacking off on his skincare routine, and it's your responsibility to keep him in line.

Over time, he'll seen an improvement in the texture and quality of his skin, which will have him feeling like a brand new man.

No caddy? No problem. If your grandpa likes to get his swing on the golf course without having to worry about hurting his back, then this innovative golfing bag is the way to go. Described as the “gold standard” in golfing bags, it weighs only three pounds and includes a cushion at the hip for the ultimately comfortable game and straps that will form to the individual shape of his shoulders.

From one of PureWow editors' favorite NYC cheese stores, Murray’s Cheese Greatest Hits sampler includes four fan favorites: Gruyère, Manchego, Brie, and Cheddar, plus a handful of crunchy bites like Marcona almonds and a sweet, spiced jam. He’ll love crafting an expertly curated spread to share with the whole family, and he grandkids can even teach him how to put together an Instagram- and Pinterest-worthy charcuterie board with his tasty new selections.

Because you remember him teaching you, as a kid, to "be prepared," you're giving him a little something to do just that. This stainless-steel suave flask is plated in brazen gunmetal black and holds six ounces of his favorite liquor. It can’t go in the dish washer, but that’s nothing a quick hand wash can’t fix. Because camping, hiking and sports games are ahead, and he'll want to be ready.

Should Grandpa be attending a concert (or just simply want a little peace and quiet), these re-wearable, easy-to-clean earplugs will certainly serve him well. "They allow just enough background to keep you aware and in touch with your surroundings, so you won’t feel disoriented or off balance," PureWow fashion editor Abby Hepworth says in her review, adding: "They do, however, avoid one of the biggest pitfalls with earplugs, which is a sort of blocked ear sensation called ‘occlusion,’ wherein your own voice or breath is amplified."

If your grandpa is into golfing, then he is very aware of the hand fatigue that can occur when gripping the club while on the course for hours. That’s where this handy glove comes in. With an evenly displaced pad and breathable fabric, this glove will cushion the impact and prevent sweating while still allowing for optimal control of his swing. And according to Bionic, the gloves have been tested and have shown to improve performance while remaining more durable than the average golfing glove option.

Reading at night can strain our eyes, so why not grab your grandpa this innovative reading light that comes with a little clip that he can attach to any book? Its horizontal design allows for more on the page to be illuminated at once, and it also features nine adjustable brightness modes. On top of that, its soft padding will prevent his pages from being damaged and he can fold it up and put it in his pocket to take it anywhere.

Does your grandpa spend more of his days outdoors than in? Then he's sure to love this weather-safe, super strong hammock crafted from ultra-soft yard that feels "cloud-like," according to the brand and tons of reviewers confirm just how comfy it is. One writes, "It was beautiful right out of the package and the most lightweight hammock I’ve ever had. After a few hours of hanging out in it, I can say it’s very comfortable too. I’m excited to spend time in it this summer!" Now you'll just have to convince him to let you have a turn on it.

His car didn't come with heated seats? No problem. Our editors loved how easy it was to install this cushy seat cover, which features a 30-, 60- and 90-minute timer setting to warm and soothe your back. And reviewers gush over its quick-heating properties, noting how it takes less than one minute to notice the warming effects start to work. Grandpa will appreciate it not only in winter, but on any day he's feeling achy.

Nobody made chicken noodle soup like his mom—nobody. Honor that treasured memory by having it engraved onto a maple or cherry wood cutting board that’s pretty enough to display on the kitchen countertops. He'll think of you (and her) each time he pulls it out to dice carrots, celery and onions for the mirepoix. All you’ll have to do is pull out one of his mother’s favorite recipe cards and scan the image to submit to Uncommon Goods and her handwriting will remain intact on his new board. There’s an option to type the recipe out and have it printed in a script that feels handwritten, or you can go with the original.

Grandpa takes enormous pride in his perfectly manicured lawn, so you know that a gift like this Lawnbright subscription box will mean the world to him and his soil. Every eight weeks, Lawnbright will send Gramps a box of the brand’s natural and organic products (like fertilizers and soil conditioners), which will be completely customized to his lawn’s needs based on a rapid survey that he’ll need to complete. (Note: He will have to fill in some key information, like rating his lawn on a scale of ‘my lawn looks great!’ to ‘bare patches’ and how big is his lawn in square feet.) Then, Grandpa can watch his grass flourish with his new, easy-to-use products, and company’s Turf Team is always a call away to answer any questions he may have.

Forward bursts of orange, mandarin and lemon burst from this popular eau de toilette that’s reminiscent of the island of Capri. It’s light, relaxing and bright and is formulated to feel less intense than a parfum that’ll have a higher percentage of perfume oil. And Grandpa’s excellent sense of smell just might pick up on the hints of petitgrain, cardamom, caramel and musk added to counterbalance the bold, citrus notes.

He taught you everything he knows about dominoes, so it’s only right you pay it forward with an elegant set worthy of being added to his beloved shelf. The Pigeon and Poodle set from Neiman Marcus is made from a sleek-looking perforated aged camel leather that covers a wood composite case, for a game that's handsome but not too fancy to actually use. I bet Grandpa will want to play immediately, so you might want to polish up on your skills before gifting.
