To make choosing gifts a little easier, each month I will be looking at some great gift ideas for different people for a variety of special occasions. And of course, to kick things off, we will start with the festive season.
This month I am focusing on parents – what do you buy mum and dad for Christmas? It can be tricky to think of suitable Christmas present ideas for parents, and they get tired of the usual perfume or aftershave. Well, check out some of the great ideas below as I present our ‘Guide to Buying Christmas Presents for Parents’, courtesy of Flying Penguin, the ultimate gadget website!
For Mum – Mums can be tricky to buy for, and they often receive gifts that are fairly predictable – perfume, jewellery, kitchenware – well enough of that! Lots of mums have stacks of vinyl records from their youth stashed away in the loft, so why not get them a gift with a difference? Give them the opportunity to share their memories with their children with the Veho USB Turntable. It is a fantastic usb record turntable which records and converts 45s, 33s and 78s to mp3 format via usb direct to your computer. This Veho USB Turntable captures your vinyl in real- time and converts them to MP3 files, and recording and editing software is included in the box. Give your mum the opportunity to hear all those golden oldies again. Any mum would love this turntable with usb capability, and I’m sure they’ll soon be dancing around the Christmas tree!
Or what about the stylish A1000 touch screen mobile phone? This sleek, stylish touch screen mobile phone is not only beautifully designed and crafted but is also very intelligently engineered, and it represents one of the best mobile phones around. It comes with some fantastic features including TV, FM radio, a touch screen MP3/MP4 player, accelerometer, Bluetooth, camera, GPRS,and WAP. It is not only a practical gift, but it is also beautiful in design. It certainly makes a change from the usual perfume or chocolates, and I’m sure any mum would treasure such a gift!
Maybe your mum really loves her music, in which case she’ll absolutely love this ultra-mini but suprisingly powerful rechargeable pop-up capsule speaker from Veho. The Veho 360 is a great little gadget which provides 360 degree sound for your iPod or Sony/Nokia phone. Your mum can connect to virtually any audio device including her MP3 player, notebook, netbook, PDA or even an iPhone! And because the Veho 360 speaker capsule has a built-in rechargeable Lith-ion battery, it not only saves the battery life, but it gives up to 8 hours playing from one charge! I can guarantee your mum will love this and will enjoy it for years to come!
For Dad – Like most men, dads love all sorts of gadgets for the home, work or play, and Flying Penguin has something for every dad. How about the Veho VFS-002M Colourbright slide and negative scanner - your dad can convert all his old memories into digital pictures on a PC or MAC, ready for restoring, printing, archiving or viewing. It also includes some fantastic picture enhancement software that increases the clarity of the pictures by automatically adjusting the back light and colour balance. This is a gift that any dad will love!
Maybe your dad spends a lot of time in his car. Now you can help him keep in touch when he’s driving, whilst making sure he enjoys a safe and comfortable drive. This Bluetooth ‘plug and play’ handsfree car kit would make an ideal gift. He simply inserts it into his car’s cigarette lighter outlet, pairs it with his phone and off he goes! Bluetooth technology has helped millions of drivers worldwide avoid accidents and collisions, so make sure your dad stays safe while he drives!
Maybe your dad loves cool electronic gadgets. Well how about this elegant but fully functional mobile phone watch with tri band, touch screen, MP3/MP4, Bluetooth, camera, GPRS and WAP. The W600 is simple and elegant and is finished in stylish stainless steel. It will take a micro SD card (1 GB included) which can be filled with movies and music which is great when you’re on the move. It includes a USB Bluetooth charging cable and a charging/data transfer cable. It also comes with an organiser and a side mounted camera – this stylish phonewatch makes a great gift and will really impress your dad with its innovative features and stylish looks.
