The festival that fills your heart with joy and light – Diwali – is just around the corner and it’s time to start planning your gifts (especially for your parents!). Your parents do so much for you expecting nothing in return. The act of gifting is one of the many ways of giving back to them and showing them that you care.
You might think your parents are impossible-to-shop-for as they do not prefer any materialistic things you buy for them and might find them completely unnecessary. So this Diwali, move away from mainstream gifts and pick ones that are unique and thoughtful. A gift that shows your loved ones that you think about them.
Here are some gift ideas that will not only be memorable but super beneficial for your parents.
A weekend getaway!
When was the last time you spent quality time with your family? Or the last time they even took a break from their daily routine? The best way to make wonderful memories with your family while also giving them a chance to relax is to take them on a weekend getaway!
Plan a short trip to a wellness spa resort or a beachside shack and spend a day or two just enjoying nature. Spend Diwali unwinding from the sweet chaos that is life.
A customized water purifier
No matter the city, water quality is slowly becoming a growing concern in India. Groundwater sources are highly contaminated with uranium. On the other hand, water in lakes in cities like Bengaluru are not fit for direct consumption. Consumption of contaminated water can increase the risk of several health issues, impairing memory or brain function. Boiling water does not get rid of any of these harmful chemicals and metals. Having a customized water purifier at home is the only way to ensure your parents always consume clean, safe and healthy drinking water.
Full health checkup
A step further to ensure that your parents are healthy is to schedule a full health checkup for them. This will help find any warning signs and make you aware of the onset of several dangerous diseases. As they say, prevention is always better than cure.
A donation in their name
And finally, for the parents who simply do not accept any gifts in any way or form from their children. We have a gift idea for you too! Pick a cause that is close to their hearts and make a generous donation in their names. This thoughtful gift will not only be remembered and cherished by your family but also by all the other people that your donations might help.
2022 might have finally witnessed people back to their routine with the huge decline in Covid-19 scares. However, health, in general, should never be neglected. This Diwali, pay close attention to your parents and give them the gift of health and happiness!
