It\u2019s December already, and Christmas decorations are all over the place. For most people, this means they\u2019re counting down the days till they see what Santa\u2019s got them this year around. For us, it meant having a special encounter with the one and only Santa, in which he revealed to us some of his secrets.<\/p>\n

So if you\u2019re wondering what to get your mom this Christmas (or generally), here are some Secret Santa practical gift ideas your mom might actually love:<\/p>\n

Make the House More Comfy For Her<\/h2>\n

1- A Water Softener<\/h3>\n

Has your mom complained about how no matter how many times the dishes have been washed, they\u2019re still full of white spots after they\u2019re left to dry? This might sound silly to you, but it causes her a lot of mental stress and embarrassment with the guests. Getting her a water softener will make her year! Check out this water softener guide<\/a> for ideas.<\/p>\n

2- A Cheeky Doormat<\/h3>\n

Well. It will help with welcoming the visitors.<\/p>\n

3- Crock-Pot Express Multi-Cooker<\/h3>\n

Your mom will love to know she can whip up a meal in less than 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

4- iRobot Roomba 960<\/h3>\n

This one’s a bit over the expensive end, but it will make all your mom\u2019s dreams come true: A self-cleaning house! Well, not literally, but close enough. Roomba is a robot that will take the liberty of cleaning the house, no complaints. iRobot’s super popular new model is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant so the vacuum will start up as soon as she says the word.<\/p>\n

Self-Care Gifts<\/h2>\n

1- Oliver Rocket Bath Bomb Set<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s time to give your mom something to treat herself with. This Bath Bomb Set has six bombs of Lavender, Cucumber Melon, Moonlight Rose, Grapefruit Tangerine, Black Raspberry Vanilla and Cool Water: A great mixture of fizzy, fragrant and soothing scents for a delightful bath experience.<\/p>\n

2- Bathtub Tray<\/h3>\n

You can also gift her a bathtub tray to just sit back and enjoy the bath while reading, sipping a drink or just watching her favorite show. You can even make it yourself!<\/p>\n

3- Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser<\/h3>\n

Just what your mom needs for a peaceful morning with a cup of tea, or when she\u2019s getting into bed: a steamy mist of natural-healing oil dancing around her. You can always opt for alternative DIY options<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4- HoMedics Shiatsu and Vibration Body Massager<\/h3>\n

After a long day at work and attending to housework, a fulfilling massage at the tips of her hand is just what she needs.<\/p>\n

5- Clarisonic Sonic Awakening Eye Massager<\/h3>\n

Even more fulfilling, an eye massager that keep her wrinkles in the bay and leave her more refreshed than ever.<\/p>\n

For Health & Fitness Enthusiastic Moms<\/h2>\n

1- Self-Rolling Smart Yoga Mat<\/h3>\n

A mat that pairs with Women\u2019s Health Yoga on Amazon Alexa, and talks your mom through her workout. And then, as it names indicates, it rolls itself up<\/a> after the yoga session is done.<\/p>\n

2- Fitbit Versa Smartwatch<\/h3>\n

This watch tracks heart rate, exercise, and sleep stages have 15+ exercise mods and can store\/downloaded 300+ songs. Quite the workout companion your mom will love in her fitness journey.<\/p>\n

There are some constants in life we take for granted, and more often than not we forget to express just how grateful we are for them. Our moms are usually those ever-loving constants. So no matter how it may seem when your mom doesn\u2019t really like any of the gifts you get her, a thoughtful gift that might ease her day, relieve her stress or help her through her years will definitely do the job. Trust us, Santa knows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
