Heartwarming Christmas Gifts for Grandparents
Grandparents are amazing. Whether you’re five or twenty-five, they are always there for us. This Christmas, show your grandparents how much you love them with a special gift from the heart. If you have children of your own, this is also a time to celebrate your parents and their relationship with your kids. We know when it comes to Christmas gifts for grandparents, sometimes we’re left scratching our heads, which is why we’ve collated the following list of ten personalised gifts for grandparents.
1. Showcase precious memories with Officeworks
With an Officeworks Gift card, they can create a photo calendar for their home featuring loved ones in photos. Each of their grandchildren can be featured in the calendar, with a different family photo per month. That way, when they walk into the kitchen your grandparents are always reminded of how loved they are!
2. Expand their home library with Dymocks
Retirement means a bit more time for kicking back with a cuppa and a good book. If your grandparents are in a book club or you enjoy discussing books with each other, a Dymocks gift card could be the perfect gift. They could read something you have recently enjoyed or discover a new favourite author.
3. Pamper them with Aesop
An Aesop hand cream or hand wash is a luxurious Christmas gift for grandma and even grandpa won’t be able to resist! Aesop offers a wide range of high quality skincare products that make great functional gifts. Whether it’s an addition to their guest bathroom or something for themselves, they can enjoy quality ingredients and lovely fragrances from an iconic Aussie brand.
4. Help them tend to their garden with Bunnings Warehouse
Is your grandma a bit of a green thumb? With a Bunnings gift card she can explore a wide range of native and exotic plants. Or does granddad love fixing things? At Bunnings he can upgrade his tool box or find the materials to build that shed he’s always wanted. This could also be a gift that gets you all together to do some gardening as a family!
5. Support their active lifestyle with BCF
If your grandma enjoys a gentle hike in nature or your grandpa loves to fish, why not get them something that can be used for their hobbies? A BCF gift card is an ideal Christmas gift for young grandparents and those who are young at heart. Perhaps your grandma could use a new pair of hiking shoes or grandpa could upgrade his fishing rod. BCF also offers pop up tents that would be perfect for your next family outing at the beach.
6. Have a crafternoon with RedBalloon
Your grandparents might have taught you some useful skills growing up like baking, knitting or sewing. Now, you can bring back some of those memories with a RedBalloon gift card. Together, you could book a class to try something you’ve never done before. RedBalloon has over 5,000 gift experiences to choose from. You could learn to make pasta or give pottery a go. Why not decide together!
7. Indulge their sweet tooth with Koko Black
Chocolates are a foolproof Christmas gift for grandparents. This year, why not give them a box of choccies that are Australian made with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. Koko Black have a delicious range of chocolate hampers and gift boxes that are ideal for sharing on Christmas Day.
8. Treat them to the latest fashion with David Jones
David Jones is home to some of the best Australian and international fashion brands. Or if home decor is more up your grandparents alley, they could get a luxurious new cushion or something for the festive season like a new set of baubles. Beautiful Christmas decorations are a timeless purchase that can be kept in the family for generations.
9. Enjoy a night out with Best Restaurants
Give your grandparents a night off from cooking and washing up by treating them to a meal out. A Best Restaurants gift card gives them access to some of Australia’s finest establishments.

Christmas Gifts for Grandparents FAQ’s
How to Choose Christmas Gifts for Grandpa and Gifts for Grandma?
Whilst they might be referred to as a unit, your grandparents have their own individual interests. A gift that grandma likes might be completely different to what grandpa likes. Bear this in mind when choosing a gift for the two of them. You could also get them separate gifts based on their hobbies or passions. For example, grandma might enjoy tickets to the theatre courtesy of a RedBalloon gift card. On the other hand, grandpa might prefer a new set of golf clubs from Drummond Golf.
What are some Christmas gift ideas for new grandparents?
Becoming a grandparent is an exciting milestone. You can help them celebrate their first Christmas with their grandchild by choosing a gift on your baby’s behalf. You could get them a funny gift like a shirt from Amazon that says ‘nanna’ or ‘pop’. Or, something more functional like a picture book from Booktopia that they could read together when their grandchild comes to visit. All Prezzee gift cards can include a written message, so you can sign your baby’s name on the card.
What to give grandparents who live overseas?
We know not everyone is fortunate enough to live in the same country as their extended family. For those who won’t be having face-to-face quality time this Christmas, we’ve got the solution for you. If your grandparents live overseas, you can use the Prezzee international gift card service to send grandparents or family based in the UK, US or NZ a Christmas gift from a far.
