It’s made from soft 100% brushed cotton, and features a roomy fit for extra comfort. It’s so comfy, get one for Dad, too, as well as these other brilliant gifts for parents.

This desktop photo calendar ($30) is sure to bring a smile to Grandpa’s face every time he looks at it. We like the simple and modern design of the monthly pages, as well as the clipboard stand made from reclaimed walnut.
Jigsaw Puzzle
If your Grandpa regularly relaxes with a jigsaw puzzle, he’ll love this 1,000 piece Canoe Lake puzzle ($10). It includes a poster of the puzzle image to hang up for easy reference while solving. Plus, it can be a fun activity to do together after making one of his signature recipes.

How much do you really know about your Grandpa’s long life and meaningful memories? You or your kids will appreciate filling out this Grandpa Interview Journal ($11) with him. The questions will help you discover his favorite stories and create a wonderful keepsake that you all can treasure.
Magnetic Wristband
More than likely your Grandpa has plenty of tools for household repairs, but we bet he doesn’t own a magnetic wristband ($16). This unique gadget is worn on the wrist and holds screws, nails, bolts, washers and drill bits with strong magnets embedded in the fabric. It’s basically a third helping hand for Grandpa while he works!
Nut Cracker
Grandpa can crack hazelnuts, pecans and peanuts to his heart’s content with this premium stainless steel nut cracker tool ($18). We adore the sleek look and easy-to-use design. Simply place the nut into the hole, cover the hole with your thumb and squeeze the handle. Wrap it up with a bag of his favorite nuts.
