Mother’s Day 2020: A practical gift list to indulge your mom

By

The Digital Trends Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2020 offers the best selection of tech for putting a smile on mom’s face, from always-connected jewelry to top-of-the-line wellness and beauty products. Because this year we are staying home, working and learning with young kids, and giving mom a spa day isn’t an option. She needs tools that support a happy and healthy home. Shop our favorite picks for gift ideas. (Pro tip: She likely needs a robot to vacuum, but not for Mother’s Day).

Editor’s note: It’s more than likely that families might spend Mother’s Day apart this year due to coronavirus. Nothing can replace time spent together, but if you’re looking for a gift to send to your mom in lieu of a visit, we hope our list will help in finding exactly what you’re looking for.

Give mom the power to set the tone at home with her choice playlist, and she can tell someone else what to do (I mean ask) with the Alexa enabled speaker. The Sonos One works with every Sonos device, and offers more streaming services than any other smart speaker.
$159 from Sonos $203 from Walmart

This standing desk lets mom get some work done while the kids play at her feet. Dual-electric motors provide smooth and even height adjustment. Get it in white/black to create a modern design office feel. All that’s missing is a potted fig tree.

This Rebel for beginners has a 7-frames-per-second burst rate, meaning mom will have no trouble capturing shots of the kids. There’s also portrait mode, for if they ever sit still. She can upload up to 10GB of photos and videos to a personal library for sharing.

Get mom the best in high-tech jewelry — and make it chic in matte gray with a white band. She can store music on the Apple Watch 5, pair it with Bluetooth headphones, chat with Siri, respond to messages, use it as a remote camera shutter button, and even practice mindfulness.
$399 from Amazon $180 from Newegg

This charging dock’s sleek, modern design comes in black or white, so it won’t compromise mom’s nightstand aesthetic. And you only need a single wall outlet, because it features built-in chargers for both an iPhone and an Apple Watch.

The AirPods Pro have an in-ear design that helps block outside noise for zoning out to music, concentrating on favorite podcasts, or home office Zoom meetings. Plus, you can’t beat the luxury of wireless headphones for running.

Save mom precious time with a hair dryer that works quickly without overheating or causing excess damage. It’s lightweight, perfect for precision styling, and the attachments are magnetic, allowing her to effortlessly switch them. Since she’ll use it most days, the biggest decision is if she wants it in pink or white.
$600 from Amazon $384 from Walmart

This coffee maker has a pre-infusion feature that wets the coffee grounds before brewing for even extraction, producing a more consistent brew. The thermal 8-cup carafe keeps the coffee hot for hours, and the sleek, compact design saves counter space.

The Vitamix Professional 750’s 64-ounce jar is big enough to hold lots of ingredients, and the blender has several speed settings. Its self-cleaning feature is perfect for smoothie messes, and a 7-year warranty makes it a solid long-term investment.
$599 from Amazon $761 from Walmart
