These 10 gifts are perfect for the parent who never has time to relax
Shopping for your parent-friends around the holidays can be brutal — gifts for parents, especially those who never have time to relax, can end up seeming useless when measured against their busy schedules (because hello, that pretty coffee table book is just going to gather dust if its receiver is caring for a newborn).
But treating parents to gifts that are actually useful and relaxing can make the season that much brighter, which is why we’re excited to share this list. We’ve thought carefully about how to make parents’ lives easier, more restful, and all-around better, so you can just hit “purchase” on one of the options below and carry on with your holiday shopping. Don’t worry about thanking us later.
