New generation gadgets for independent Elderly

7

You can't gift everything to an independent senior. Why so?

In short, people who love their freedom, they learn the hard way of living as well. And they will never appreciate being treated as dependent.

When it comes to gift ideas to the elderly one, we often ended buying things that are elderly friendly. But how about the new generation of high-tech gadgets that can be an appreciation to independent elderlies?

Let's talk about a few modern edge products that can compliment people who are independent and love to treat that way.

1.Magnifying Makeup Mirror with LED Lights:
I know you might have a surprise by just seeing the product idea! Let me elaborate. We use makeup mirror for quite a while now. And generally, makeup was the only task it would handle. But that's not the case anymore.We are talking about Magnifying Makeup Mirror. And no, I am not suggesting you to help your granny to do her makeup. They won't be doing such things often.Then why they would need one? For elderlies it quite reasonable that they will have blurry vision, and it is hard for them even finding small skin flaws on the face. Tweezing can be a real struggle for your Grandfather. Combing hair properly can be a real challenge for most of the grandmothers. This is where a Lighted magnifying makeup mirror can help.I had one for my granny. The first thing she said, "You don't want me to go to a prom." Then I explained to her what she could do with it. Like applying any type of face products and so on. You can check this Best Magnifying Makeup Mirror review where they have explained more details about such kind of mirror and their uses. Hope you will find this useful.

2.Amazon Echo:

Amazon Echo is something that has managed to be with us for several years. Now it's a part of our life. Sometimes we even forget how much assistance we have taken from Alexa!Whenever we want can order food for home delivery. Why shouldn't our seniors? I don't need you guys to dredge up the benefits of Amazon Echo. But one last thing for your better understanding. Life of aged is not that easy, often they ended up feeling alone! Making their life bit more comfortable with this products might be one of the greatest gifts you have given to your grandfather/mother.

3.Tile Bluetooth Tracking System:

Tile is one of the world-renowned Bluetooth tracking devices, it's smaller and simple to use. That's the absolute reason I want you to buy few of them for the seniors.When you grow old, it is quite easy to forget things and missing them. If you manage to connect one of this with their key-bunch next thing you will notice that they will keep asking you to tag some of the other stuff with it as well.

4.Automatic House Cleaning Vacuum:It is hard for elderly people to sit down and clean up a whole flat or vacuum it. But that doesn't mean they have to depend on someone else or leave in the unhealthy dusty floor. This maintains the clean floors thus helps the elderly to tide up without having a back or shoulder pain

Not Finishing Here:

Independent elderly can often do their things alone. And they love that too. When we want to gift them something, we must make them feel that they are still strong. We could hand over something that apparently makes them feel old. Instead should give that something that complements them.

So what was the gift you have given to your Grannies? What was their reaction after having? Don't forget to write them into comment sections. I would love to hear it. And don't forget if you have found this article useful. Tadah!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
