33 Best Christmas Gifts for Mom

It’s hard work growing a tiny human in your  belly, and pregnancy can take a toll on a mom’s back, hips, and legs. It’s difficult for a pregnant mama to sleep if her body aches, but she needs to enjoy a full night of rest while she can. After all, the average parent loses 2 hours of sleep per night with a newborn in the house.

The Snoogle was designed by a mom, so it actually works. A removable pillowcase makes it easy for mama to wash potentially nonexistent germs away when the nesting phase strikes.

For $50, you can give a soon-to-be mom approximately 9 glorious months of comfortable sleep. She can also use it once the baby is born if she finds it hard to sleep after a c-section or difficult delivery.

Who doesn’t need a stockpile of remedies for their family’s ailments? This is the ultimate homeopathic medicine kit because it comes with a little bit of everything, from Arnica to Sepia. These pellets may help alleviate the symptoms associated with common conditions such as coughs, runny noses, achy joints, and sprains/strains.

For around $70, Mom gets more than $300 worth of homeopathic remedies. What a steal!

Breastfeeding is tricky whether you’re a first-time mom or a mom of 10. Stress or hectic schedule can affect milk supply, but these gluten-free bars help a special mom in your life get back on track. Moms say the bars really do increase their milk supply as long as they eat 1 or 2 bars per day, which is definitely doable because they taste delicious.

Shopping for a breastfeeding mom with allergies? No problem - these bars are wheat-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and egg-free.

It’s $24 for the variety pack, which means each bar costs $4. This price might seem high, but eating one bar a day might still be cheaper than switching to formula.

Moms usually don’t get much time to unwind. This coloring book gives her a chance to mentally escape for a bit as she shades in flowers and patterns. The back of each picture is blank, so Mom can frame her colored page or jot down some thoughts.

This cute coloring book is only $7, making it the best cheap Christmas gift for Mom.

Honor her roles as Mom and Grandma with this gorgeous necklace from A Touch of Dazzle. This floating locket has plenty of room for her favorite mini charms and gemstones, and it looks lovely with casual wear or semi-dressy attire.

A practical lobster-claw clasp holds this pretty piece snugly in place.

You’ll pay anywhere from $30 to $75 for this heartwarming piece of jewelry.

Whether she’s a nature newbie or a gardening guru, this kit helps her tackle basic tasks. She can sow seeds, hydrate herbs, and prune plants with this 9-piece set.

The set includes a convenient carrying case, so Mom doesn’t have to find a home for her gardening gear. The pruner has a safety lock, which is super important if you’re buying this gift for a mom with curious kiddos.

It’s currently on sale for less than $35, but you might pay as much as $70 if the sale ends.

 If she’s the type of mom who adores her kids but admits that parenthood is stressful at times, this is the right gift for her. This hilarious book will have her laughing until tears stream down her face as she reads adventures from fellow moms and dads who are trying to get the hang of this parenting thing.

The author is sassy and blunt, so she’s a hit with outspoken moms who aren’t afraid to say what’s on their minds.

For $10 to $17, you can make a mom laugh until she cries.

You can never have too many candles, at least that’s what we keep telling ourselves. Mom will adore this candle - not just because it smells amazing, but because it has a heartwarming message on the front. Expect to see her proudly display this scented candle in a hard-to-miss location.

This candle costs between $20 and $25, which makes it one of the most affordable gifts on our list.

Mom can’t always escape to the spa for a well-deserved day of relaxation, so why not bring the gift of pampered bliss to her? This massage chair pulses and vibrates against various pressure points, soothing sore muscles and aching joints. It may also help improve metabolism and circulation.

The suggested retail price is $1,600, but we’ve seen this chair as low as $850 on Amazon. Most customers say it’s worth the price.

Perhaps Facebook friends have grumbled that she posts too many baby pictures, or maybe digital memories have taken over her laptop’s hard drive. This digital picture frame rotates between hundreds of stored photos, and the 8 GB memory has plenty of space for her special moments. Just make sure she removes your potty training pictures before the next family function.

We found this frame for around $110, which is an average price for digital photo frames. There are cheaper models, but they don’t work as well or hold as many pics.

Chocolate can put Mom in a good mood during the hectic holiday season. Plus, what mom doesn’t deserve a box of gourmet chocolates? Put that waxy candy bar back on the shelf and treat Mom to the good stuff this Christmas - if you’re lucky, maybe she’ll share a cookie or three with you.

Oh, and did we mention these delicious treats are dairy free?

$30 is all you need to help Mom indulge in a creamy chocolate escape.

It’s hard for any mom to keep the house clean when she’s busy chasing after messy children, pets, and significant others. It’s even harder when mom is a neat freak, which is why the Roomba 650 vacuum is the perfect gift. She can focus on other household chores while this low-profile vacuum maneuvers its way throughout the home, sucking up cookie crumbs and pet dander with its innovative AeroForce 3-stage cleaning system.

With prices ranging from $275 to $375, this is one of the pricier gifts on our list. However, it’s a steal when you consider how much it costs to hire a maid.

Late-night bottle feedings or long nights spent waiting for a teen who’s out past curfew can take a toll on mom’s complexion. L'Occitane Immortelle Divine Cream rejuvenates tired skin, leaving behind a radiant, youthful complexion.

At $110 per container, this stuff isn’t cheap. However, the price tag reflects its impressive performance.

Yoga pants are a staple in any modern mom's wardrobe, especially moms who want to be comfortable without sacrificing fashion. These soft, stretchy yoga pants have a small pocket, which is why we chose them over the thousands of other pairs available. And, the innovative sweat-wicking fabric keeps mom dry while she chases after toddlers at the park or hits the gym.

These Baleaf yoga pants are listed at approximately $52, but we rarely see them priced that high. They’re currently around $17.

Bakers and chefs rave about the powerful performance of this KitchenAid mixer. If Mom spends a lot of time in the kitchen, this coveted appliance is probably at the top of her wish list.

This versatile appliance does it all! She can mix cookie batter or bread dough, fluff frosting, beat eggs, stir soup, and do so much more with the press of a button. There are 10 different speed settings, so Mom doesn’t have to worry about over-stirring or undermixing her batter.

For around $300, you can make Mom the happiest baker on the block!

She may miss having an identity other than Mommy, no matter how much she loves her new bundle of joy. After being showered with baby gifts and bombarded with visitors who want to see her newborn, this gift set reminds the special new mom in your life that she’s important too. She’ll love the skin-softening salve, especially after she washes her hands for what feels like the millionth time after changing yet another dirty diaper.

For approximately $60, you get a top-notch, all-natural gift set that shows a new mom she’s loved.

This calendar is a vibrant, visual reminder of her family’s commitments. It’s ideal for moms with kids of nearly any age, whether she’s raising toddlers, tweens, or teens. The included fridge magnets are perfect for displaying her kiddos’ math tests or artwork.

This 17-month calendar is one of the cheapest gifts on our list. Expect to spend $15 or less before shipping.

There are plenty of Bibles for women, but there are very few just for moms. This is the Bible promoted by MOPS, a religious group for mothers of preschoolers. The compact size of this pretty Bible makes it easy for mom to transport it to church or the coffee shop.

With prices ranging from $20 to $35, this Bible is an affordable but effective way to show a religious mom that you respect her faith.

Sitting on hard metal bleachers isn’t our idea of fun, and we aren’t fans of laying out a blanket on wet, muddy grass either. We’re guessing the sports-loving mom in your life feels the same way, which is why this folding chair won’t end up crammed in a basement or garage somewhere.

We dig the two drink cup holders because every mom knows that she’s not just responsible for her own beverages. There’s also a built-in accessory bag that’s perfect for holding sunblock or a secret stash of chocolate. The chair’s resilient polyester exterior repels stains and resists water damage, so she can cheer on her favorite team rain or shine. Speaking of sunshine, this folding chair’s adjustable canopy prevents golden rays from obstructing your view of the big game.

This comfy canopy chair typically costs between $20 and $30, but we’ve seen it as high as $35. It costs half as much as similar chairs, but it has way better ratings.

 There’s a good chance that the health-nut mom in your life follows a gluten-free, paleo, or primal lifestyle. This spiralizer lets mom replace carb-heavy pasta with zoodles, spiralized sweet potatoes, and curly carrots. We love that cleanup is easy, because we’ve owned some veggie spiralizers that were a nightmare to wash and dry.

With a regular price of $49.99, this kitchen must-have is comparable to the popular Paderno tabletop spiralizer. However, reviewers say that Brieftons has better customer service, so we chose this spiralizer over similarly priced models.

Encourage mom to embrace her wanderlust with this Southwest Airlines gift card. She can jet off for a solo retreat one weekend or put the funds toward a family vacation. We love that the card is good for nearly 100 destinations because it gives mom control over where she vacations. That’s why we chose this card over a timeshare or prepaid condo rental.

We featured the $100 gift card in our post, but the card also comes in $50 and $200 denominations.

It can be difficult for a tech-savvy mom to decide which device to charge first, especially if she also has kids who love digital devices. This 7-port dock eliminates that decision and puts an end to the "But it's my turn to charge my iPad" arguments. Mom can charge multiple iPhones and tablets at the same time without removing their cases or searching for an available outlet.

This 7-port charger costs around $50 to $60, a price that falls on the lower end of the best gifts for mom on our list.

Helping little people develop into decent adults is stressful. Give mom a fun break from parenting for 101 minutes with this R-rated movie, which stars Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis, Christina Applegate, and Jada Pinkett Smith. The talented cast displays traits that nearly any mother can identify with, whether she’s a single mom, working mom, or stay-at-home mom.

This is one of those hilarious flicks that movie buffs will watch again and again. It’s available via DVD, Blu-ray, and Amazon video, so it’s easy to find a format that suits a movie-loving mama’s style.

Expect to spend between $20 and $30 for Bad Moms while it’s a new release. Tack on a few extra bucks if you decide to go the extra mile and gift this movie with a pack of popcorn.

Bonus moms are often forgotten when the holidays roll around. Let your bonus mom know that you love her and appreciate all that she’s done for you by giving her this gorgeous necklace. The necklace comes with a sweet card that thanks her for extending the branches of her family tree.

You’ll dole out between $40 and $60 for this pretty pendant.
