Top 5 joint gifts for parents

Tis’ the season of present buying, and finding the perfect gift can be a tricky task. As the countdown of returning home to start the Christmas celebrations begins, the only deadline that will really matter beforehand will be organising what to get your parents for Christmas.

If you’re low on cash, unsure on ideas or just simply avoiding venturing out into multiple shops questioning whether dad would prefer a spotted or striped tie, or if another scented candle is exactly what mum needs, why not save cash and time and opt for a joint gift for your parents instead? Here are 10 ideas!

1. Speakers from HP

Why not purchase speakers to kit out the lounge? Not only will your parents have multiple opportunities to show them off to their friends, but this present can promise that the best Christmas songs will be played around the house, giving Christmas cheer (and a dance) to all!

2. Design your own case

Make a heart-warming gesture by designing them both (matching) cases for their phones from Casetify. Make sure to add memorable family photos and countless selfies. Or even just pick a cute design that you know your parent will like, Mummas will love this gorgeous macaroon print!

3. Family entertainment!

If you are looking for something to bring the family together after conquering Christmas dinner, why not pick out your parents favourite DVDs on Zavvi that would make the perfect end to Christmas day. We love the new all-female Ghostbusters movie and the magical Now You See Me 2 for new movies to watch as a family. But, we can't forget about the classic How The Grinch Stole Christmas, can we? Alternatively, buy a family fun board game that will bring entertainment all night long, with a hint of competitive family tension.

You could even buy your parents something from their reading wishlist by using your 10% off Booktopia discount! Surely there's a ton of books that they'll want in their collection this Christmas period. Why not give them the chance to read whilst they're relaxing over the break? The perfect gift idea!

4. Smartphone screen magnifier

If you’re fed up of showing your parents something on your phone, which results in them trying to zoom in every single time, this gift from IWOOT solves all problems. It definitely will come in handy for the next couple of years, making the purchase 100% worth it.

5. Personalised photo book

If you are up for a DIY challenge, a personalised photo book will definitely be a lovely present to give to your parents. Print off lots of photos, and get creative in making a memorable scrapbook. Guaranteed to put a smile on their face on Christmas morning, with a slight possibility of a few happy tears.
