What the Tech: Tech gift ideas for Mother’s Day
BY JAMEY TUCKER, Consumer Tech Reporter
Mother’s Day is just a couple of weeks away, and if you are still planning to buy flowers or a candle, you may want to think again. Those gifts do not last very long. But some tech gifts can stick around for years and actually make life easier.
Here are a few unique tech gift ideas that many moms may not even know exist.
One of the most creative options is a small thermal printer from Munbyn. These printers connect to a smartphone and can create custom stickers, labels, and decorations in seconds. You can design your own graphics using an app and print them instantly. Some people even use them to create and sell stickers online, turning a simple gift into a potential hobby or small business.
For moms who enjoy cooking, a sous vide cooker is a popular choice. Brands like Typhur make immersion circulators that heat water to a precise temperature and keep it there. Food is sealed and placed in the water, allowing it to cook evenly from edge to edge. This method takes the guesswork out of cooking meats like chicken or steak and helps avoid overcooking.
Another trending product is the red light therapy mask. Nanoleaf has introduced a more affordable version compared to many other brands. Some users say these masks can help improve skin appearance, while others simply enjoy using them as a way to relax for a few minutes at home.
A more practical gift idea is a desktop charger from Anker. These chargers allow you to power multiple devices at once and automatically adjust the charging speed for each device. It is not the most exciting gift, but it is one that will likely be used every day.
If you plan to order any of these gifts online, it is a good idea to do it soon. Shipping times can vary, and waiting too long could mean your gift does not arrive in time for Mother’s Day.
