Moms—females—have to be something of a jack of all trades. This isn’t the ’50s where mom’s in a dress and never leaves the kitchen. So, how about a great little hand tool? I’ve had a cordless screwdriver for years and don’t know how I ever lived without one before that. This could be an especially nice gift for mom if she’s a bit older or arthritic. Using a plain old screwdriver will torque the wrist, and might be quite painful. For those simple little jobs that pop up around the house that require a screwdriver, this is a must have. Just pop in the right head for the job, press a button, and out comes the screw. No twisting involved. No stress to the wrist. And the job is done a lot faster!

How about giving your mom the gift of time? A watch is always a nice gift, and chances are the one mom has on her wrist has been there for years. And since a watch is something you look at many times a day, wouldn’t it be nice to know that you mom just might think fondly of you—not that she doesn’t already!—every time she looks at her watch? Maybe she’ll be counting the minutes until she has a chance to see you again.

Does your mom like to cook? Consider herself as something of a chef? Well, it’s said that a good kitchen must come equipped with a good knife or two. And any chef knows that means a chef’s knife, at the very least. A chef’s knife is something of a multi-purpose knife, and the Japanese version of it is called are called santoku knives. These knives are good for chopping, mincing and slicing large quantities of vegetables or meat. And the 7 inch blade on this knife is perfect for mom’s smaller hands. And the handle is designed so it will sit comfortably in her hands as well.
Oh, and when buying a Henkles knife, always make sure you buy a knife with the two men on it. They are much better quality than the cheap one man knifes they also manufacture.
