A lot of us look up to our grandparents because of the wisdom they've acquired through the years and let's face it, most grandparents spoil us more than our parents do. To show your gratitude, you can give them these tech gadgets to make their life easier.
1. Video Doorbell
When you reach a certain age, standing up starts to become a tiring task, much less having to go to the door when someone rings your doorbell. Having a video doorbell saves your grandparents a trip to the door by simply looking at their smartphone or tablet screen.
The Ring video doorbell is among the best brands you can get. It has a 1080p HD doorbell, and it allows you to see, hear, and speak to the person at the door through a phone, tablet, or PC. It can also add a layer of security since it has motion detection and night vision as well.
2. Smart Speaker
Modern technology has given us the ability to perform tasks without having to abandon our comfortable position. Through a smart speaker, you can ask a virtual assistant to do a lot of things like turning on the TV, adjusting the thermostat, locking the doors, and more.
The Echo Dot 4th generation is a smart speaker that is compatible with Alexa. It can stream songs, podcasts, and audiobooks to entertain your grandparents. They can also ask Alexa about the weather, news, particular questions, and more.
3. Phone Screen Magnifier
A small smartphone screen might be enough for younger people to binge shows and movies or read texts, but older people tend to have poor eyesight, and it might be straining to look at a small screen with small letters.
A 12-inch screen magnifier can turn the screen of a smartphone into that of a tablet. It'll be easier for them to read the news on a much larger screen, and its portability can also be useful when they want to use it outside as well.

4. Electric Can Opener
Cans are sometimes stubborn, and it's not so easy to open them with manual tools. Getting to an older age means that you might not have the strength you once had before, and an electric tool might just save the day when your grandparents need to open a can.
The Cuisinart electric can opener has a motor system that can open any can no matter what the size. The base is also sturdy enough so it won't shift when in use. It can be used with a single push and can be easily cleaned by removing the activation lever.
5. Heated Blanket
It's important that your grandparents stay warm during cold weather so they wouldn't get sick, and they should also be greeted with a soft and warm blanket when they want to rest, which is why a heated blanket is an ideal gift.
The HomeMate heated blanket is made of 220 gsm flannel and 200 gsm sherpa. The fabric is thick enough that it can provide warmth even without the electric heater. It also comes with intelligent temperature adjustment technology, so the temperature will be based on the room.
